Passport-MailChimp
Passport strategy for authenticating with MailChimp using the OAuth 2.0 API.
This module lets you authenticate using MailChimp in your Node.js applications. By plugging into Passport, MailChimp authentication can be easily and unobtrusively integrated into any application or framework that supports Connect-style middleware, including Express.
Usage
Configure Strategy
The MailChimp authentication strategy authenticates users using a MailChimp
account and OAuth 2.0 tokens. The strategy requires a verify callback, which
accepts these credentials and calls done providing a user, as well as
options specifying a app ID, app secret, and callback URL.
passport.use(new MailChimpStrategy({
clientID: MAILCHIMP_APP_ID,
clientSecret: MAILCHIMP_APP_SECRET,
callbackURL: "http://localhost:3000/auth/mailchimp/callback"
}, function (accessToken, refreshToken, profile, done) {
User.findOrCreate({ mailchimpId: mailchimp.id }, function(err, user) {
return done(err, user);
});
}
));
Authenticate Requests
Use passport.authenticate(), specifying the 'mailchimp' strategy, to
authenticate requests.
For example, as route middleware in an Express application:
app.get('/auth/mailchimp', passport.authenticate('mailchimp'));
app.get('/auth/mailchimp/callback',
passport.authenticate('mailchimp', { failureRedirect: '/login' }),
function(req, res) {
// Successul authentication, redirect home.
res.redirect('/');
});
