Usage

1. npm init
2. npm install express --save
3. npm install webtask-tools --save
4. Create index.js with the minimal express extension:

var express = require('express');
var Webtask = require('webtask-tools');

var app = express();

app.get('/', function (req, res) {
  res.status(200).send('Hello World');
});

module.exports = app;

Authenticating the extension with Auth0

A useful extension would typically use the Auth0 API. We created a module that abstract away the OAuth2 consent flow with the Auth0 API.

1. npm install auth0-oauth2-express --save
2. Add the auth0-oauth2-express module and configure the scopes you want. This will ask the right consent to the user.

var auth0   = require('auth0-oauth2-express');

app.use(auth0({
  scopes: 'read:connections'
}));

Running locally

To run the sample extension locally:

$ npm install
$ npm start

What is Auth0?

Auth0 helps you to:

• Add authentication with multiple authentication sources, either social like Google, Facebook, Microsoft Account, LinkedIn, GitHub, Twitter, Box, Salesforce, amont others, or enterprise identity systems like Windows Azure AD, Google Apps, Active Directory, ADFS or any SAML Identity Provider.
• Add authentication through more traditional username/password databases.
• Add support for linking different user accounts with the same user.
• Support for generating signed Json Web Tokens to call your APIs and flow the user identity securely.
• Analytics of how, when and where users are logging in.
• Pull data from other sources and add it to the user profile, through JavaScript rules.
