Arctic

Epic Games

OAuth 2.0 provider for Epic Games.

Also see the OAuth 2.0 guide.

Initialization

import { EpicGames } from "arctic";

const epicgames = new EpicGames(clientId, clientSecret, redirectURI);

Create authorization URL

import { generateState } from "arctic";

const state = generateState();
const scopes = ["basic_profile", "friends_list"];
const url = epicgames.createAuthorizationURL(state, scopes);

Validate authorization code

validateAuthorizationCode() will either return an OAuth2Tokens, or throw one of OAuth2RequestError, ArcticFetchError, or a standard Error (parse errors). Epic returns an access token, the access token expiration, and a refresh token.

import { OAuth2RequestError, ArcticFetchError } from "arctic";

try {
	const tokens = await epicgames.validateAuthorizationCode(code);
	const accessToken = tokens.accessToken();
	const accessTokenExpiresAt = tokens.accessTokenExpiresAt();
	const refreshToken = tokens.refreshToken();
} catch (e) {
	if (e instanceof OAuth2RequestError) {
		// Invalid authorization code, credentials, or redirect URI
		const code = e.code;
		// ...
	}
	if (e instanceof ArcticFetchError) {
		// Failed to call `fetch()`
		const cause = e.cause;
		// ...
	}
	// Parse error
}

The refresh token expiration is returned as refresh_expires and refresh_expires_at.

const tokens = await epicgames.validateAuthorizationCode(code);
if ("refresh_expires" in tokens.data && typeof tokens.data.refresh_expires === "number") {
	const refreshTokenExpiresInSeconds = tokens.data.refresh_expires;
}
const tokens = await epicgames.validateAuthorizationCode(code);
if ("refresh_expires_at" in tokens.data && typeof tokens.data.refresh_expires_at === "string") {
	const refreshTokenExpiresAt = new Date(tokens.data.refresh_expires_at);
}

Refresh access tokens

Use refreshAccessToken() to get a new access token using a refresh token. Epic returns the same values as during the authorization code validation. This method also returns OAuth2Tokens and throws the same errors as validateAuthorizationCode()

import { OAuth2RequestError, ArcticFetchError } from "arctic";

try {
	const tokens = await epicgames.refreshAccessToken(refreshToken);
	const accessToken = tokens.accessToken();
	const accessTokenExpiresAt = tokens.accessTokenExpiresAt();
	const refreshToken = tokens.refreshToken();
} catch (e) {
	if (e instanceof OAuth2RequestError) {
		// Invalid authorization code, credentials, or redirect URI
	}
	if (e instanceof ArcticFetchError) {
		// Failed to call `fetch()`
	}
	// Parse error
}

Get user profile

Add the basic_profile scope and use the /v2/userInfo endpoint.

const scopes = ["basic_profile"];
const url = epic.createAuthorizationURL(state, scopes);
const response = await fetch("https://api.epicgames.dev/epic/oauth/v2/userInfo", {
	headers: {
		Authorization: `Bearer ${accessToken}`
	}
});
const user = await response.json();

Revoke tokens

Pass a token to revokeToken() to revoke all tokens associated with the authorization. This can throw the same errors as validateAuthorizationCode().

try {
	await epic.revokeToken(token);
} catch (e) {
	if (e instanceof OAuth2RequestError) {
		// Invalid authorization code, credentials, or redirect URI
	}
	if (e instanceof ArcticFetchError) {
		// Failed to call `fetch()`
	}
	// Parse error
}
