    Module Session Fastify

    @byu-oit-sdk/session-fastify

    Requirements:

    • Node.js 20+
    • npm v9+
    • Fastify v5
    • @fastify/cookie v11+
    • @byu-oit-sdk/session-fastify now requires Node.js 20 or newer.
    • @byu-oit-sdk/session-fastify now targets Fastify 5 and @fastify/cookie 11 or newer.
    npm install @byu-oit-sdk/session-fastify
    
    Using NPM v6 or earlier? Click here! You must also install some peer dependencies in addition to this package since npm won't automatically install them for you.
    npm install @fastify/cookie @byu-oit-sdk/session-fastify
    

    Use this module to facilitate session authentication, used primarily in conjunction with the @byu-oit-sdk/fastify package.

    The only option given to the SessionPlugin plugin (see the example below) is an object where the following options can be set:

    Option Type Default Description
    store SessionStore Stored in memory The store object that will be used to store and retrieve session information
    name string 'sessionId' The name of the cookie used to store the session Id in the browser storage
    maxAge number 1200 The maximum age of the session, in seconds.

    None of the options are required to be overridden for testing, but store must be overridden for production use.

    Register SessionPlugin as a fastify plugin:

    import { ByuLogger } from '@byu-oit/logger'
    import { AuthorizationCodeFlow } from '@byu-oit-sdk/fastify'
    import fastifyCookie from '@fastify/cookie'
    import { SessionPlugin } from '@byu-oit-sdk/session-fastify'
    import Fastify from 'fastify'
    import env from 'env-var'
    import { decodeJwt } from 'jose'
    import { DynamoSessionStore } from '@byu-oit-sdk/session-dynamo'
    import { DynamoDBClient } from '@aws-sdk/client-dynamodb'

    declare module '@byu-oit-sdk/fastify' {
    interface UserInfo {
    /**
    * Declare your user info properties here
    */
    }
    }

    const isProduction = env.get('NODE_ENV').default('development').asEnum(['production', 'development']) === 'production'

    export const fastify = Fastify({ logger: ByuLogger() })

    /**
    * Must register the \@fastify/cookie plugin. The \@fastify/jwt module depends on \@fastify/cookie.
    */
    await fastify.register(fastifyCookie)

    let store
    if (isProduction) {
    const client = new DynamoDBClient({
    region: env.get('AWS_REGION').required().asString(),
    endpoint: 'http://localhost:8000'
    })
    store = new DynamoSessionStore({ client, tableName: 'sessions' })
    }

    /**
    * Must register the \@byu-oit-sdk/session-fastify plugin. You must pass in a session storage option for production environments.
    * Using the default in-memory storage is highly discouraged because it will cause memory leaks.
    */
    await fastify.register(SessionPlugin, { store })

    await fastify.register(AuthorizationCodeFlow, {
    /**
    * A user info callback function can be supplied to implement a custom way to return the user info data.
    * the default behavior is to decode the access token returned from the oauth provider token endpoint.
    * The context of the `userInfoCallback` function is bound to the FastifyAuthorizationCodeProvider instance.
    */
    userInfoCallback (token) {
    if (typeof token.additional.id_token !== 'string') {
    /** The id token property must exist in the token response body */
    throw Error('Missing or mal-formatted ID token in response from token endpoint. Did you set the right scopes?')
    }
    /** Decode the `id_token` property, which should return the user info object. */
    return decodeJwt(token.additional.id_token)
    }
    })

    /**
    * To require authentication for a route, just specify the authenticate function on the request object in the onRequest hook.
    */
    fastify.get('/auth/user', { onRequest: [fastify.authenticate] }, (req, reply) => {
    return req.session.user
    })
