Stormpath Node.js SDK

A simple user management library for Node.js.

This library is a wrapper for the Stormpath REST API. It is a collection of methods that allow you to create, modify, and update resources in the REST API, without having to manually make HTTP calls from your own code.

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 library provides low-level access to all of Stormpath's features, to name a few:

• Robust authentication and authorization.
• Schemaless user data.
• Social login with Facebook and Google OAuth.
• Generate and manage API keys for your service.
• Stateless authentication with JWTs.

Because this library gives you basic low-level access to the REST API only, it may not always be the best choice for the problem that you are trying to solve. If you want to work with a more comprehensive framework integration, please see the other libraries that are listed below.

Documentation

This library is fully documented with JsDoc, please visit the site here: Stormpath Node.js SDK Documentation

Install

npm install stormpath

Usage

Everything starts with a Client instance, which you create like so:

// Assumes API keys are in environment variables, or stormpath.yaml

var stormpath = require('stormpath');

var client = new stormpath.Client();

With a Client instance, you can do many operations, like fetching all of the accounts in your Stormpath Tenant:

// Fetch all the accounts in my Stormpath Tenant

client.getAccounts(function(err, accountsCollection) {
  accountsCollection.each(function(account, next) {
    console.log(account);
    next();
  });
});

Other Libraries

This library is a low-level wrapper for the Stormpath REST API. We also provide high-level libraries for popular frameworks, these libraries provide default views for login and registration, as well as many other features for adding authentication and authorization to your full-stack web or mobile application.

• Express-Stormpath - A deep integration with Express that will add default view for authentication, and provide a JSON API for front-end and mobile clients to use for authentication.

• Stormpath Angular SDK - This library provides default login and registration views in your Angular application, and communicates with Express-Stormpath via its JSON API to authenticate the user, and tell Angular about the logged-in user. This library can be used with other back-end frameworks, for more integrations see https://docs.stormpath.com

• Stormpath React SDK - This library provides routes and components for React that will allow you to solve common user management tasks using Stormpath, such as login and signup. It communicates with Express-Stormpath via its JSON API to authenticate the user and provide user context to your React application. This library can be used with other back-end frameworks, for more integrations see https://docs.stormpath.com
