This is early stages. Oauth application registration requires a manual process only I can do, a self serve system may or may not get coded at some later point in time.

Basic details: (for people who know how to use OAuth apis)

Code: Select all

Auth endpoint: https://tgstation13.org/phpBB/app.php/tgapi/oauth/auth
Token endpoint: https://tgstation13.org/phpBB/app.php/tgapi/oauth/token
User endpoint: https://tgstation13.org/phpBB/app.php/tgapi/user/me

(Warning, per the oauth2 spec, attempting to double spend the initial authorization code grant invalidates the entire authorization grant and all tokens/refresh tokens issued by it, as an additional security matter, the same applies to refresh tokens)

Token format: bearer (length between 40 and 50 characters currently, never more than 255 in the future, but even 128 would be stretching it)
Token TTL: app defined.
Token endpoint supports url-form-encoded and json encoded POST bodies.
Token endpoint does NOT support authorization header client authentication (pass it in as client_id and client_secret via the post body or json body)
Refresh tokens: Supported, Single use rotating refresh tokens.
Redirect_uris must be pre-registered and must exactly match. if provided to any of the oauth endpoints, it will be validated against the registered redirect uri, but is optional.

User endpoint:

Only bearer token authorization is supported. (see here for more details)

for those who might be interested in using this in an ASP.NET 5.0 (or greater) project, i have created an easy-to-use oauth handler for /tg/station. you can find it on nuget at Tgstation.Auth, or alternatively on GitHub here.

once you get a client ID registered with MSO, it is as simple as adding a dependency on that package and using the extension methods like in the following example...

Code: Select all

services.AddAuthentication(options =>
    {
        options.DefaultAuthenticateScheme = CookieAuthenticationDefaults.AuthenticationScheme;
        options.DefaultSignInScheme = CookieAuthenticationDefaults.AuthenticationScheme;
        options.DefaultChallengeScheme = TgDefaults.AuthenticationScheme;
    })
    .AddCookie()
    .AddTgstation(options =>
    {
        var tgAuthSection = Configuration.GetSection("Authentication:Tgstation");
        options.ClientId = tgAuthSection["ClientId"];
        options.ClientSecret = tgAuthSection["ClientSecret"];
        options.Scope.Add("user.details");
        options.Scope.Add("user.groups");
    });

best wishes,
