OAuth2 Login

"template": "login_oauth2"

This view can be used for devices that need OAuth2 authorization. When it's successful, it will automatically proceed to the next view.

Example

/app.json

{
	"id": "com.athom.testsuite",
	"drivers": [
		{
			"id": "my_driver",
			"pair": [
				{
					"id": "login_oauth2",
					"template": "login_oauth2"
				},
				{
					"id": "list_devices",
					"template": "list_devices_singular",
					"navigation": {
						"next": "add_devices"
					}
				},
				{
					"id": "add_devices",
					"template": "add_devices"
				}
			]
		},
		...

/drivers/<driver_id>/driver.js

const Homey = require('homey');

class MyDriver extends Homey.Driver {

	onPair( socket ) {

		let apiUrl = 'https://api.myservice.com/oauth2/authorise?response_type=code&client_id=' + Homey.env.CLIENT_ID + '&redirect_uri=https://callback.athom.com/oauth2/callback/'

		let myOAuth2Callback = new Homey.CloudOAuth2Callback(apiUrl)
			myOAuth2Callback
				.on('url', url => {

					// dend the URL to the front-end to open a popup
					socket.emit('url', url);

				})
				.on('code', code => {

					// ... swap your code here for an access token

					// tell the front-end we're done
					socket.emit('authorized');
				})
				.generate()
				.catch( err => {
					socket.emit('error', err);
				})

	}

}

This pair template works best with the homey-oauth2app module.

Options

Key Type Default Description
hint i18n-object ``
button i18n-object "Log-in"

When either hint or button are set to a value, a button will appear and wait for the user to click it before opening the popup.
