Yahoo

OAuth 2.0 provider for Yahoo.

Also see the OAuth 2.0 guide.

Initialization

import * as arctic from "arctic";
const yahoo = new arctic.Yahoo(clientId, clientSecret, redirectURI);

Create authorization URL

import * as arctic from "arctic";

const state = arctic.generateState();
const scopes = ["openid", "profile"];
const url = yahoo.createAuthorizationURL(state, scopes);

Validate authorization code

validateAuthorizationCode() will either return an OAuth2Tokens, or throw one of OAuth2RequestError, ArcticFetchError, UnexpectedResponseError, or UnexpectedErrorResponseBodyError. Yahoo returns an access token, the access token expiration, and a refresh token.

import * as arctic from "arctic";

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

Refresh access tokens

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

import * as arctic from "arctic";

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

OpenID Connect

Use OpenID Connect with the openid scope to get the user's profile with an ID token or the userinfo endpoint. Arctic provides decodeIdToken() for decoding the token's payload.

const scopes = ["openid"];
const url = yahoo.createAuthorizationURL(state, scopes);

import * as arctic from "arctic";

const tokens = await yahoo.validateAuthorizationCode(code);
const idToken = tokens.idToken();
const claims = arctic.decodeIdToken(idToken);

const response = await fetch("https://api.login.yahoo.com/openid/v1/userinfo", {
	headers: {
		Authorization: `Bearer ${accessToken}`
	}
});
const user = await response.json();

Get user profile

Make sure to add the profile scope to get the user profile and the email scope to get the user email.

const scopes = ["openid", "profile", "email"];
const url = yahoo.createAuthorizationURL(state, scopes);
