Frisby.js and OAuth? about frisby

[vlucas]

There are no examples currently, but OAuth would just be a series of requests that run after the previous one using the after or afterJSON callback methods.

We just started running into the same issue (having to get our OAuth2 token before testing endpoints). afterJSON is working for us. Here is an example:

frisby.create('OAuth2 login')
  .post('https://oauth.ourapi.com/access', {
    username: 'someuser',
    password: 'somepass',
    client_id: 'someid',
    client_sig: 'somesig',
    grant_type: 'password'
  })
  .expectStatus(200)
  .afterJSON(function(response) {
    frisby.create('Delete user')
      .delete('https://api.ourapi.com/users/me')
      .addHeader('Authorization', 'Bearer ' + response.access_token)
      .expectStatus(204)
      .toss();
  })
  .toss();

However, I think there might be a bug in either Frisby or Jasmine, it doesn't actually output the test that was run. But, if there is a failure, it does still error and show the failure.

Hope this helps!

This is top result for a search of "frisby oauth" so I thought I'd drop an example that is working for me.

In case it's of interest. This is testing an API implemented using Drupal 7, OAuth2 server, Services 3 (REST server). In this case, username is client_id and password is client_secret

var frisby         = require('frisby');

var domain         = 'https://my.domain.com/',
    oauthTokenUrl  = domain + 'oauth2/token',
    apiPath        = domain + 'api/v2/',
    accountUrl     = apiPath + 'account',
    username       = 'username',
    password       = 'password',
    auth           = "Basic " + new Buffer(username + ":" + password).toString("base64");

var accountId      = '12345',
    username       = 'joe';

frisby.create('OAuth2 login')
  .addHeader('Authorization', auth)
  .addHeader('Accept', 'application/json')
  .post(oauthTokenUrl, {
    grant_type: 'client_credentials'
  })
  .expectStatus(200)
  .afterJSON(function(response) {

    frisby.create('Get account')
      .get(accountUrl + '/' + accountId)
      .addHeader('Authorization', 'Bearer ' + response.access_token)
      .expectStatus(200)
      .afterJSON(function(account){
        expect(account.username).toEqual(username);
      })
      .toss();

  })
  .toss();

Thanks @joevallender - I will have to add this example to the docs.

@joevallender Thanks for the example. Just out of curiosity, how are you keeping your test database clean of your test data? I come from Rails, so fixtures and test data are pretty much obliterated and reloaded on every load.
