This demo shows how you can run an authenticated script to interact with your Pod.
Check out the code in src/authenticatedScript.ts for more details.
Note that until this issue
is resolved, this will not work against NSS. This demo is only intended to work against a compliant
OIDC implementation, such as Inrupt's ESS (e.g. deployed at https://login.inrupt.com).
To properly install this demo app, first run npm ci at the root of the repository, which will trigger
the build of the library. Then, run npm ci again, this time in
packages/node/example/bootstrappedApp/, and then npm run build. You should be all set.
In order for the application to act on your behalf, you will need to register it
to your Identity Provider. See our documentation on how to do this using Inrupt's Identity Provider. Registering
the client will result in a client_id and client_secret being issued by the
Identity Provider, and being bound to your WebID.
All you need to do now is to use the credentials obtained from the previous step to get an
access token. authenticatedScript.js shows a minimal app issuing an authenticated
request. It expects a number of arguments to run:
node dist/authenticatedScript.js --clientId <the client id> --clientSecret <the client secret> --oidcIssuer <the issuer that issued the token> --resource <the private resource you want to access>
