Testing Passport Facebook Strategy Oauth - node.js

I was looking for a solid example or to be pointed in the right direction of how to simulate testing Passport-Facebook's login process. Completely clueless as where to start.
I'm open to any testing framework.
Best,
Austin

While Passport documentation provides a crude/basic example for use Passport-Facebook strategy
http://passportjs.org/docs/facebook
You may like to have a look at this tutorial from scoth.io for detailed example, it teaches you how to authenticate via facebook, twitter and google+ using Node.js and respective strategies. You'll have to follow the first two lessons to achieve your goal

Metamask authentication with passport, express, nodejs

I am looking for a secure Metamask Login library that seamlessly fits into the "hackathon starter project".
Since I haven't found anything useable and i'm personally not confident to just start writing my own passport strategy it would be nice if someone more experienced than me can direct my efforts.
There's no need to roll your own - there's already an existing Metamask strategy for Passport [1].

Instagram Client-Side (Implicit) Authentication not available?

I have searched google and I have seen a lot of related questions and answers on this issue but none of them are clear.
I am trying to use Instagram API and as far as I understand, since I am building a client-side app (VueJS) is not a good idea to store the client_secret on the client.
Based on the Instagram Documentation here it seems that there was a way to use implicit authentication.
The problem is that after Facebook took over Instagram and launched the Instagram Graph API it seems that there is no way to use implicit authentication.
Does anyone have any information regarding this? The only solution is to build a server-side app for authentication?
This can be solved using an access token.
This token can be generated and has to be refreshed at least every 60 days using a GET request and your app-secret.
This can either be done automatically, in that case with a server side application or by hand.

If it helps I created a snippet for vue after wasting the better half of an afternoon on this matter.

Graphql/Prisma, autorization with or without passport?

I'm creating an API with graphql and Prisma and have been following this tutorial for tips and trix: https://www.howtographql.com/graphql-js/6-authentication/. When they reached authorization they opted not to use middleware like passport.js but instead wrote their own logic as you can see in the link. I'm simply wondering why and if this solution is lacking in a security perspective?
passport is really handy if you want to setup facebook, twitter and google auth. For simple password login just write your own functionality, it is simpel todo and gives you full control.

admin-on-rest with passport.js authentication?

I am wondering why I cannot find any AOR and passport auth code online? I found a ton of keystone and passport though... Is there a specific reason for that - the two should work well together, right?
You're right, there is no reason admin-on-rest would not work with passport -- however, there is a caveat:
It seems you are searching for a "passport + AOR" tutorial or guide, but one of the selling points of admin-on-rest is that it is truly agnostic to any authentication implementation. Therefore, you would implement a passport strategy of your choosing (jwt, oauth, http basic) within admin-on-rest's authClient.js

What is the best way to implement user login system for website with hapi.js?

What is the best way to implement user login system for website in hapi.js framework ?
I have searched a lot through the internet but I still don't know which module I should use to implement such authentication. I prefer using passport but the documentation for passport and hapi is so brief. Can anyone suggest me any module? Or a detailed documentation for passport and hapi.js ?
Thank you
If you're looking to do basic authentication, take a look at hapi-auth-basic. Alternately, you may wish to look at hapi-auth-cookie.
If you're looking for third-party login via oAuth there is Bell.
For more on authentication with Hapi take a look at the tutorial on hapijs.com.
