React Azure Active Directory and Passport

react-azuread-passport

This is an example of using React, Passport, and Azure Active Directory

Quick startup

edit the config.js file in ./server/config/config.js

get a secret from the App Settings in AAD on Azure Portal and update in that file: clientSecret: process.env.AAD_AUTH_CLIENTSECRET or set the ENV variable.

OR create a .env file with

AAD_AUTH_CLIENTSECRET=fuLat5eYB8NOT REAL=

AAD App settings

In the Azure AD App, ensure that the App has permissions to Microsoft Graph. Specifically under Delegated permissions - Sign in and read user profile.

Also, ensure the Reply URLs contains http://localhost:8080/auth/cbAdfs

No startup both watcher and nodemon for the server

npm i
#the following command launches 2 concurrent processes - one is React's watch, the other id NODE js.
# they are served from the SAME Origin so no CORS concerns.
npm start
open http://localhost:8080

Navigate to root, click on the big button - then once logged on click on your email in the upper right corner. This dumps the jwt that was supplied on logon.

Features

  • Uses React for the SPA
  • Provide your Azure AD Application information in a .env file before running.

Configuring

Environment file

provide an environmenbt file based upon your Application setup in Azure Active Directory.

AAD_AUTH_URL=https://login.microsoftonline.com/
AAD_AUTH_CLIENTID=Application ID
AAD_AUTH_CLIENTSECRET=Secret Generated from Azure Porta
AAD_AUTH_TENANT=DNS name of your tenant
MS_GRAPH_URL=https://graph.microsoft.com/
APP_SESSION_SECRET=some word just use to validate session id in passport

By default if no .env file is used, the config.js files are used.

Running

NOTE: the commands below rely on npx which is part of npm 5+.

git clone https://github.com/cicorias/react-azuread-passport myapp
cd myapp
npm install
npm run bundle
npm start

Development mode

In the development mode any changes to the project are automatically re-compiled and server is restarted. To start project in development mode open two terminal windows in the root of the project.

In the first window run:

$ npm run bundle

That will start the webpack in the watch mode and generate the front end files.

In the second window run:

$ npm start

That will start up the nodeJS back end.

Production mode

In the production mode front end files are re-compiled and minified for production use. To start project in production mode open two terminal windows in the root of the project.

In the first window run:

$ npm run deploy

In the second window run:

$ npm start

That will start up the nodeJS back end.
