Is there any status to know if a user is logging out?

[mikibakaiki]

Not an issue, more like asking for help :)

Is there any way to know if a user is logging out? I needed this kind of behavior, and i think this was possible using the react-oidc-context package. However, reading through the documentation and testing with a react demo, i couldn't find any status for this specific purposes.

From what i gather, there's only the OidcUserStatus enum.

Any hints? :)

EDIT: Meanwhile, found this, and it might be what i want, but how can i use it through oidc-react ?

Hi @mikibakaiki , does the property isAuthenticated do the job for your use case ?

https://github.com/AxaFrance/oidc-client/blob/4f9ca8e903fc286f4d72ce069ad92873624ca2d3/examples/react-oidc-demo/src/Home.tsx#L13C39-L13C55

Hey @guillaume-chervet , thanks for quickly getting back to me :)

I'm still not sure. Going through a big code base, and don't know all the logic behind it 😅

The isAuthenticated is just a boolean, right?

How could i use the Status enum i mentioned?

Also, on the same project, it doesn't make sense to use both oidc-client and oidc-react, right?

hi @mikibakaiki ,

yes isAuthenticated is just a boolean.

Status is an internal property for internal behavior.

You can listen events for this event :

the way to listen events =>

oidc-client/examples/react-oidc-demo/src/App.tsx

Line 32 in 7a3e1f0

const onEvent = (configurationName, eventName, data) => {

Thanks for answering, and sorry for taking too long to answer :) i got side tracked on this task.

Looking back at it, i think that the isAuthenticated might be a solution.

I have two questions, maybe a little of topic (one of them!):

1. How would you listen for the concrete logout event, as you mention? I feel like there's a concrete event i should be listening to.

2. I'm wondering if there's a type for the configuration object. I know in previous versions there was, because im updating a codebase that relied on the former [email protected] 😅 Now, in the the readme, i only see:

export const configuration = {
  client_id: 'interactive.public.short',
  redirect_uri: window.location.origin + '/#/authentication/callback',
  silent_redirect_uri: window.location.origin + '/#/authentication/silent-callback',
  scope: 'openid profile email api offline_access',
  authority: 'https://demo.duendesoftware.com',
  service_worker_relative_url: '/OidcServiceWorker.js', // just comment that line to disable service worker mode
  service_worker_only: false,
  demonstrating_proof_of_possession: false,
};

with no type association.

Trying to look into this, so i don't change much of the codebase's logic, and can comply with good software practices :)

This is the older code version, and what i was looking for:

// oidc-client/index.d.ts

export interface OidcClientSettings {
  /** The URL of the OIDC/OAuth2 provider */
  authority?: string;
  readonly metadataUrl?: string;

  readonly popupWindowTarget?: any;

  readonly silent_redirect_uri?: any;

  readonly automaticSilentRenew?: boolean;
  readonly validateSubOnSilentRenew?: boolean;
  /** Flag to control if id_token is included as id_token_hint in silent renew calls (default: true) */
  readonly includeIdTokenInSilentRenew?: boolean;

  readonly redirectNavigator?: any;
  readonly popupNavigator?: any;
  readonly iframeNavigator?: any;
  /** Storage object used to persist User for currently authenticated user (default: session storage) */
  readonly userStore?: WebStorageStateStore;
}

I'm sure most of these things are deprecated. So if there's no specific type in the library, could you tell me the exact properties i would / might need, so i can create an interface :)

Thanks and sorry if it got out of topic, or too long and confused 😅

Have a great weekend!

I think i managed to have everything working like i wanted :) thanks for the help and support, you can close the ticket!

Keep up the good work @guillaume-chervet 👏
