# Autodesk Forge Proxy Server

## Overview

This sample is demonstrating how to host a proxy server to forward all requests from the Forge Viewer to this backend without showing access token in your viewer frontend.

## Requirements

* node.js v8.9.4 or later



## Setup

1. Download and install [Node.js](http://nodejs.org/) (that will install npm as well)

2. Download this repo anywhere you want

3. Execute 'npm install', this command will download and install the required node modules automatically for you. 


   ```bash

   npm install

   ```



## Use of the sample

Before starting the server, you have to set the Forge credentials up.

- Mac OSX/Linux (Terminal)

   ```bash

   export FORGE_CLIENT_ID=<>

   export FORGE_CLIENT_SECRET=<>

   ```

- Windows (use **Node.js command line** from Start menu)

   ```bash

   set FORGE_CLIENT_ID=<>

   set FORGE_CLIENT_SECRET=<>

   ```

- Windows (use **Powershell** from Start menu)

   ```bash

   $env:FORGE_CLIENT_ID="<>"

   $env:FORGE_CLIENT_SECRET="<>"

   ```

Then Run the server 


   ```bash

   npm start

   ```

- Configure viewer endpoint

Initialize your viewer app in this way:

```JavaScript

const options = {

   env: 'AutodeskProduction',

   accessToken: 'eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiIsImtpZCI6Imp3dF9zeW1tZXRyaWNfa2V5X2RldiJ9.eyJjbGllbnRfaWQiOiJjWTFqcm1rQXhPSVptbnNsOVhYN0puVURtVEVETGNGeCIsImV4cCI6MTQ4NzU2NzgwMSwic2NvcGUiOlsiZGF0YTpyZWFkIl0sImF1ZCI6Imh0dHBzOi8vYXV0b2Rlc2suY29tL2F1ZC9qd3RleHAzMCIsImp0aSI6InJZcEZZTURyemtMOWZ1ZFdKSVVlVkxucGNWT29BTDg0dFpKbXlmZ29ORW1MakF0YVVtWktRWU1lYUR2UGlnNGsifQ.uzNexXCeu4efGPKGGhHdKxoJDXHAzLb28B2nSjrq_ys' //!<<< Pass a expired token to avoid initializing auth issue on the Forge Viewer v7.x

};

Autodesk.Viewing.Initializer( options, () => {

  // Change derivative endpoint to Proxy endpoint

  Autodesk.Viewing.endpoint.setApiEndpoint( 'http://127.0.0.1:8085/forge-proxy', 'derivativeV2' );

  Autodesk.Viewing.Document.load(documentId, onDocumentLoadSuccess, onDocumentLoadFailure);

});

```
