Using passport-google-oauth with react-native - node.js

Question

I'm trying to use passport-google-oauth in my react-native application. When I run the app it throws the error: requiring unknown module util . I've installed the package using npm install .. and I've also tried npm install ... --save
App/Components/Login.js
'use strict';
var React = require('react-native');
var GoogleStrategy = require('passport-google-oauth').OAuthStrategy;
...
package.json
{
"name": "NativeApp",
"version": "0.0.1",
"private": true,
"scripts": {
"start": "node_modules/react-native/packager/packager.sh"
},
"dependencies": {
"passport": ">= 0.0.0",
"passport-google-oauth": "^0.2.0",
"react-native": "^0.4.4"
},
"devDependencies": {}
}
index.ios.js
'use strict';
var React = require('react-native');
var Login = require('./App/Components/login');
var {
AppRegistry,
StyleSheet,
Text,
View,
NavigatorIOS,
} = React;
class AppStoreIOS extends React.Component{
render() {
return (
<NavigatorIOS
titleTextColor = '#0073A0'
// barTintColor = '#183E63'
initialRoute={{
component: Login,
title: 'AppStore v2.0',
passProps: { myProp: 'foo' },
}}
/>
);
}
};

Don't think this going to work for you. Passport expects to be run in an node.js (express based) environment, and will at least require some work to port it to using a webview for the Oauth flow, realistically it will be a lot of work.
Have a look at https://medium.com/#jtremback/oauth-2-with-react-native-c3c7c64cbb6d for an example of how to support oauth in react-native. I haven't tried this, but it looks pretty straight forward.
