#Stormpath is Joining Okta We are incredibly excited to announce that Stormpath is joining forces with Okta. Please visit the Migration FAQs for a detailed look at what this means for Stormpath users.
We're available to answer all questions at [email protected].
Stormpath is a User Management API that reduces development time with instant-on, scalable user infrastructure. Stormpath's intuitive API and expert support make it easy for developers to authenticate, manage, and secure users and roles in any application.
This is the development environment for the Stormpath hosted ID Site. You can use this repository to build the same single page application (SPA) that Stormpath provides by default. The SPA uses Angular and Browserify and it is built using Grunt and Yeoman.
If you want to build your own ID Site and are comfortable with Angular, you should use this repository.
If you are not using Angular, you can build your own ID Site from scratch but you will need to use Stormpath.js in order to communicate with our API from your custom ID Site application.
ID Site will work in the following web browser environments:
- Chrome (all versions)
- Internet Explorer 10+
- Firefox 23+
- Safari 8+
- Android Browser, if Android version is 4.1 (Jellybean) or greater
It is assumed that you have the following tools installed on your computer
You should clone this repository and these tasks within the repository:
npm install
bower installBecause ID Site only works with HTTPS, you will need to setup a local tunnel which will serve your your local ID Site from a secure connection. With the local tunnel tool you must do this:
lt --port 9000
It will fetch a URL and tell you something like this:
your url is: https://wqdkeiseuj.localtunnel.me
You must take that URL and configure your ID Site accordingly. Please login to the Stormpath Admin Console and set these options on your ID Site Configuration:
| Configuration Option | Should be set to |
|---|---|
| Domain Name | your local tunnel URL |
| Authorized Javascript Origin URLs | your local tunnel URL should be in this list |
| Authorized Redirect URLs | the endpoint on your server application which will receive the user after ID site (read below) |
The application (typically, your server) that sends the user to ID Site is known as the Service Provider (SP). You send the user to ID Site by constructing a redirect URL with one of our SDKs. For example, createIdSiteUrl() in our Node.js SDK.
After the user authenticates at ID Site, the user is redirected back to your
application. Your application must have a callback URL which receives the user
and validates the jwtResponse parameter in the URL (our SDK does this work
for you).
If you haven't built your service provider we have a simple service provider application which you can use for testing purposes, see: Fake SP
Once you have setup the environment (the steps above) you are ready to start the development tasks. Run the following command to start the server:
grunt serve
This will open the application your browser. Because the application does not have a JWT request, you will see the JWT error. At this point you should use your service provider to redirect the user to your ID Site.
Do you use Stormpath? Are you forking this repository so that you can build a modified version of our default application? This section is for you.
After you have started your environment (all the steps above) and made your customizations to your fork of this repository, there are two ways you can deploy your changes:
-
Directly form your fork, unminified. If you've forked this library and your changes exist in your fork, you can simply point your ID Site Configuration to the URL of your forked github repository. Nothing else is required, however you will be serving un-minified assets, which may be slower.
-
With Minification. If you want to serve minified assets for performance, you need to run
grunt buildto build the application into it's minified form. This will be placed in thedist/folder, which is not tracked by git. You will need to commit this output to another github repository, and then point your ID Site configuration at that git repository.
Are you a Stormpath Engineer who is working on this module? This section is for you.
You need to create a build of this application, after you have merged all of
your changes into master. You create the build with the grunt build task.
After the build is created, you need to copy the output from the dist/ folder
in this repo (which is not tracked by git) and commit it to the ID Site Repository.
The purpose of the ID Site Repository is to hold the minified output of this development environment. When a tenant is using the default ID Site configuration, they are receiving the files that exist in the ID Site Repository.
When you push a commit to master on the ID Site Repository, the files are consumed and pushed to our CDN for serving to any tenant which is using the default ID Site.
Are you working on a feature that is not yet ready for master, but you'd like a tenant to try it out? No problem! Just create a named topic branch in the ID Site Repository and place the build output there. The tenant can then point their ID Site Configuration at the branch for testing purposes. When you merge the feature into master and deploy a master release, you should delete the branch.
In this situation, you'll likely want to use grunt build:debug to create a
non-obfuscated build output (which will make in-browser debugging easier).
To run the Selenium tests, you need to install Protractor:
npm install -g protractor
Start the development server by running grunt serve,
then run Protractor with the config file in this repo:
protractor protractor.conf.js
WARNING: This will modify the ID Site Configuration of the Stormpath Tenant that is defined by these environment variables:
STORMPATH_CLIENT_APIKEY_ID
STORMPATH_CLIENT_APIKEY_SECRET
Alas, you must ensure that you are using a tenant that is not used by your production application!
