I have implemented the Google OAuth passport strategy and it works, but I'm passing some additional data to the callback endpoint, so I can redirect the user to a different URL if it's a new user or an existing user.
This is my Google strategy:
Injectable()
export class GoogleStrategy extends PassportStrategy(Strategy) {
constructor(
...
) {
...
}
async validate(
...
): Promise<void> {
...
const authInfo = { newUser: !userExists };
done(null, user, authInfo);
}
}
And this works, after that, my callback endpoint is called and I can get the user from the request. The issue is that I need the authInfo in the callback, so I can redirect the user based on if it's a new user or existing user. The problem is that I can see the authInfo in the request, when I use the handleRequest in my AuthGuard, but not inside the controller.
This is my AuthGuard:
@Injectable()
export class GoogleAuthGuard extends AuthGuard('google') {
async canActivate(context: ExecutionContext): Promise<boolean> {
const result = (await super.canActivate(context)) as boolean;
const request = context.switchToHttp().getRequest();
await super.logIn(request);
return result;
}
handleRequest(
...args: Parameters<
InstanceType<ReturnType<typeof AuthGuard>>['handleRequest']
>
) {
console.log(args);
return super.handleRequest(...args);
}
}
The log above is logging the authInfo and looking at @nestjs/passport source code, I can see that the authInfo is being set in the request.
But when I try to get the authInfo in my callback function, it's always undefined:
@UseGuards(GoogleAuthGuard)
@Get('/google/callback')
async googleCallback(
@Request()
request: ExpressRequest,
): Promise<{ msg: string }> {
console.log(request.authInfo); // This is always undefined
return { msg: 'OK' };
}
How do I get the authInfo in my callback?
