# SocketCluster Passport.js authentication middleware

[![NPM](https://nodei.co/npm/passport.socketcluster.png?downloads=true&downloadRank=true&stars=true)](https://nodei.co/npm/passport.socketcluster/)

A [SocketCluster](http://socketcluster.io/) middleware for authenticating socket connections with [Passport.js](http://passportjs.org/).

## Installation

    npm install passport.socketcluster

## Usage

    //worker.js

    

    var session = require('express-session'),

        express = require('express'),

        cookieParser = require('cookie-parser'),

        passport = require('passport'),

        passportSocketCluster = require('passport.socketcluster'),

        RedisStore = require('connect-redis')(session);

    

    module.exports.run = function(worker) {

      var app = express(),

          store = new RedisStore(),

          cookieKey = 'session',

          cookieSecret = 'keyboard cat';

  

      var server = worker.getHTTPServer(),

          sc = worker.getSCServer();

      server.on('req', app);

  

      app.use(session({

        name:     cookieKey,

        secret:   cookieSecret,

        store:    store

      }));

  

      app.use(passport.initialize());

      app.use(passport.session());

      

      //Handshake authentication

      sc.addMiddleware(sc.MIDDLEWARE_HANDSHAKE, passportSocketCluster.handshake({

        cookieParser:cookieParser,

        key:         cookieKey,

        secret:      cookieSecret,

        store:       store,

        passport:    passport,

        callback:    function(err, req, user, next) {

          if (err) {

            return next(err);

          }

          //Save Passport user for later use

          req.session.set('user', user, next);

        }

      }));

    };
