go-oauth-cli-client

Add MFA/2FA support in your CLI for IDPs that support OAuth 2.0 Authorization Code Flow

Features

• MFA/2FA with minimal user interaction
  • If eg. Active Directory is used for other services as well, the user is often logged in in the browser already, and can close the browser after the token exchange is done in the background
• Starts temporary local server with callback endpoint to receive the code, and exchange it with a token
• State verification
• Includes the recommended PKCE - Proof Key for Code Exchange extension
• Cross platform default browser invocation
• Zero dependencies

Usage

Configure OAuth Client in the OAuth server

client_id: "my_cli"
redirect_uris: ["http://localhost"]

Get this library

go get github.com/EikaGruppen/go-oauth-cli-client

Use it

opts := oauth.Options{
  AuthorizationEndpoint: "https://the.oauth.server.com/authorize",
  TokenEndpoint: "https://the.oauth.server.com/token",
  ClientId: "my_cli",
  ClientSecret: "my_cli_secret", // optional
  AuthorizationExtParams: map[string]string{"scope": "openid"}, // optional
}

tokenResponse, err := oauth.AuthorizationCodeFlow(opts) // will open browser for user to do MFA, and show callback page there when done
if err != nil {
  // handle
}

fmt.Println(tokenResponse.AccessToken)
fmt.Println(tokenResponse.IdToken) // optional
fmt.Println(tokenResponse.RefreshToken) // optional
fmt.Println(tokenResponse.ExpiresIn)

// store tokens safely, and use them to authorize towards the service

Callback page will let the user know whether the auth was successful or not, and that they may close the page and go back to the terminal:

Redirect URI

By default, http://localhost:<choosen port>/oauth/callback will be used. This can be overridden by setting redirectUri:

redirectUri, err := url.Parse("https://my-url.com/the/callback")
// handle err

opts := oauth.Options{
  // ...
  redirectUri: redirectUri,
  // ...
}
