parse-access-token

Parse OAuth 2.0 bearer token from request body, query param or headers.
ref: https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6750#section-2

Install

$ npm install --save parse-access-token

Usage

Exposes functions parseHeaderToken, parseQueryToken, parseBodyToken as named exports to parse token from headers, query or body respectively and a function as default export that check all three and throws an error if found in more than one of them. All functions return the access token if found, else undefined. Note that the access token is not verified, just parsed form the request.
ES6 module available at parse-access-token/es6 and commonjs ES5 at parse-access-token. Note: using require the default export is accessible as default:

const parseToken = require("parse-access-token").default

Works on an express, koa or hapi request object.

import parseToken from 'parse-access-token/es6'

app.get('/resource', (req, res, next) => {
  const token = parseToken(req)

  if (verify(token)) {
    res.status(200).send('Resource')
  } else {
    res.status(401).send('Unauthorized')
  }
})
