Omniauth Oauth2 Cognito

This Gem is an OAuth2 strategy for use with Devise and OmniAuth. It provides the ability to authenticate a user from an AWS Cognito user pool and then sign the user into a rails application. It is based on the omniauth-oauth2 gem.

In order to use, follow the installation and usage guides below.

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'omniauth-oauth2-cognito', git: '[email protected]:arcadia/omniauth-oauth2-cognito.git'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Usage

To configure this gem with Devise + Rails, follow the steps in this guide. When you get to editing the config/initializers/devise.rb file, use the following configuration:

Devise.setup do |config|
  ...

  config.omniauth :cognito,
    <cognito_client_id>,
    <cognito_client_secret>
    aws_region: <aws_region>
    callback_path: <!important - route used for cognito callback>,
    client_options: { site: <cognito_url> },
    info_fields: %[email],
    scope: %i[openid email profile],
    user_pool_id: <cognito_user_pool_id>

  ...
end

when configuring the user model, use the following devise setting:

devise :omniauthable, omniauth_providers: %i[cognito]

and make sure to add a route in the routes.rb file that corresponds to the callback_path setting in the devise config above. So if you used /auth/cognito/callback for the callback route setting in cognito and in the devise config, then you would set a route like:

devise_scope :users do
  get '/auth/cognito/callback', to: 'callbacks#cognito'
end

The above route assumes you've set up your callbacks controller at app/controllers/callbacks_controller.rb like:

class CallbacksController < Devise::OmniauthCallbacksController
  def cognito
    @user = User.from_omniauth(request.env['omniauth.auth'])

    # Do something with user on login if needed

    sign_in_and_redirect @user, event: :authentication
  end

  ...
end

Make sure to complete all the steps in the Devise + Omniauth guide.
