# @strivacity/sdk-nuxt

A Nuxt 3 module that integrates Strivacity's policy-driven authentication journeys into your application using the OAuth 2.0 PKCE flow. Supports `redirect`, `popup`, `native`, and `embedded` modes.

See our [Developer Portal](https://www.strivacity.com/learn-support/developer-hub) to get started with developing with the Strivacity product.

## Overview

This SDK allows you to integrate Strivacity's policy-driven journeys into your Nuxt 3 application. It registers itself as a Nuxt module and automatically provides the `useStrivacity` composable and `StyLoginRenderer` component throughout your application without needing explicit imports. The SDK uses the OAuth 2.0 PKCE flow to authenticate with Strivacity. For detailed configuration options, available modes, and advanced usage refer to the [`@strivacity/sdk-core` documentation](https://github.com/Strivacity/sdk-js/blob/main/packages/sdk-core/README.md).

## Demo Application

- [Example app](https://github.com/Strivacity/sdk-js/tree/main/apps/nuxt)

## Requirements

- Nuxt: 3+

## Install

```bash
npm install @strivacity/sdk-nuxt
```

## Usage

### Initialization

Register the SDK as a Nuxt module in `nuxt.config.ts`:

```ts
// nuxt.config.ts
export default defineNuxtConfig({
	modules: ['@strivacity/sdk-nuxt'],
	strivacity: {
		mode: 'redirect', // or 'popup', 'native', 'embedded'
		issuer: 'https://<YOUR_DOMAIN>',
		scopes: ['openid', 'profile'],
		clientId: '<YOUR_CLIENT_ID>',
		redirectUri: '<YOUR_REDIRECT_URI>',
	},
});
```

Use the auto-imported `useStrivacity` composable in any component to access authentication state:

```vue
<script setup>
const { loading, isAuthenticated, idTokenClaims } = useStrivacity();
</script>
```

### Redirect / Popup mode

In `redirect` mode the user is taken to the identity provider in the same window; in `popup` mode authentication happens in a popup. Both are initiated the same way from code.

#### Login page example

```vue
<script setup>
import { onMounted } from 'vue';

const { login } = useStrivacity();

onMounted(() => {
	login();
});
</script>

<template>
	<section>
		<h1>Redirecting...</h1>
	</section>
</template>
```

#### Callback page example

The callback page handles the response from the identity provider. It calls `handleCallback()` and redirects to `/profile` on success:

```vue
<script setup>
import { onMounted } from 'vue';

const router = useRouter();
const { handleCallback } = useStrivacity();

onMounted(async () => {
	try {
		await handleCallback();
		await router.push('/profile');
	} catch (error) {
		console.error('Error during callback handling:', error);
	}
});
</script>

<template>
	<section>
		<h1>Logging in...</h1>
	</section>
</template>
```

#### Profile page example

```vue
<script setup>
const { loading, isAuthenticated, accessToken, accessTokenExpired, accessTokenExpirationDate, idTokenClaims, refreshToken } = useStrivacity();
</script>

<template>
	<section>
		<h1 v-if="loading">Loading...</h1>
		<dl v-else>
			<dt><strong>accessToken</strong></dt>
			<dd>
				<pre>{{ JSON.stringify(accessToken) }}</pre>
			</dd>
			<dt><strong>refreshToken</strong></dt>
			<dd>
				<pre>{{ JSON.stringify(refreshToken) }}</pre>
			</dd>
			<dt><strong>accessTokenExpired</strong></dt>
			<dd>
				<pre>{{ JSON.stringify(accessTokenExpired) }}</pre>
			</dd>
			<dt><strong>accessTokenExpirationDate</strong></dt>
			<dd>
				<pre>{{ accessTokenExpirationDate ? new Date(accessTokenExpirationDate * 1000).toLocaleString() : JSON.stringify(null) }}</pre>
			</dd>
			<dt><strong>claims</strong></dt>
			<dd>
				<pre>{{ JSON.stringify(idTokenClaims, null, 2) }}</pre>
			</dd>
		</dl>
	</section>
</template>
```

#### Logout page example

The `postLogoutRedirectUri` parameter is optional and specifies where users are redirected after logout. This URI must be configured in the Admin Console as an allowed post-logout redirect URI.

```vue
<script setup>
import { onMounted } from 'vue';

const router = useRouter();
const { isAuthenticated, logout } = useStrivacity();

onMounted(async () => {
	if (isAuthenticated.value) {
		await logout({ postLogoutRedirectUri: location.origin });
	} else {
		await router.push('/');
	}
});
</script>

<template>
	<section>
		<h1>Logging out...</h1>
	</section>
</template>
```

#### Component example

```vue
<script setup>
import { computed } from 'vue';

const { isAuthenticated, idTokenClaims, login, logout } = useStrivacity();
const name = computed(() => `${idTokenClaims.value?.given_name} ${idTokenClaims.value?.family_name}`);
</script>

<template>
	<div v-if="isAuthenticated">
		<div>Welcome, {{ name }}!</div>
		<button @click="logout()">Logout</button>
	</div>
	<div v-else>
		<div>Not logged in</div>
		<button @click="login()">Log in</button>
	</div>
</template>
```

### Native mode

In `native` mode the auto-imported `StyLoginRenderer` component renders the authentication UI inline using your custom widget components. You can define custom components for each input type; see [Example widgets](https://github.com/Strivacity/sdk-js/tree/main/apps/nuxt/app/components/widgets).

The example widgets use SCSS for styling and Luxon for date handling:

```bash
npm install sass luxon
npm install --save-dev @types/luxon
```

```js
import CheckboxWidget from './checkbox.widget.vue';
import DateWidget from './date.widget.vue';
import InputWidget from './input.widget.vue';
import LayoutWidget from './layout.widget.vue';
import MultiSelectWidget from './multiselect.widget.vue';
import PasscodeWidget from './passcode.widget.vue';
import LoadingWidget from './loading.widget.vue';
import PasswordWidget from './password.widget.vue';
import PhoneWidget from './phone.widget.vue';
import SelectWidget from './select.widget.vue';
import StaticWidget from './static.widget.vue';
import SubmitWidget from './submit.widget.vue';

export const widgets = {
	checkbox: CheckboxWidget,
	date: DateWidget,
	input: InputWidget,
	layout: LayoutWidget,
	loading: LoadingWidget,
	passcode: PasscodeWidget,
	password: PasswordWidget,
	phone: PhoneWidget,
	select: SelectWidget,
	multiSelect: MultiSelectWidget,
	static: StaticWidget,
	submit: SubmitWidget,
};
```

#### Login page example

The login page extracts `session_id` from the URL on load, cleans up the URL, and passes it to the renderer. When a `session_id` is present the renderer calls `startSession(sessionId)` to resume the existing flow instead of starting a new one.

```vue
<script setup lang="ts">
import { ref } from 'vue';
import type { FallbackError, LoginFlowState } from '@strivacity/sdk-nuxt';
import { widgets } from '~/components/widgets';

const router = useRouter();
const sessionId = ref<string | null>(null);

if (window.location.search !== '') {
	const url = new URL(window.location.href);
	sessionId.value = url.searchParams.get('session_id');
	url.search = '';
	history.replaceState({}, '', url.toString());
}

const onLogin = async () => {
	await router.push('/profile');
};

const onFallback = (error: FallbackError) => {
	if (error.url) {
		window.location.href = error.url.toString();
	} else {
		alert(error);
	}
};

const onError = (error: string) => {
	alert(error);
};

const onGlobalMessage = (message: string) => {
	alert(message);
};

const onBlockReady = ({ previousState, state }: { previousState: LoginFlowState; state: LoginFlowState }) => {
	console.log('previousState', previousState);
	console.log('state', state);
};
</script>

<template>
	<StyLoginRenderer
		:widgets="widgets"
		:session-id="sessionId"
		@fallback="onFallback"
		@login="onLogin"
		@error="onError"
		@global-message="onGlobalMessage"
		@block-ready="onBlockReady"
	/>
</template>
```

#### Callback page example

When a `session_id` is present in the URL the native flow is resumed by forwarding it to the login page. Otherwise the standard `handleCallback()` path is used:

```vue
<script setup>
import { onMounted, computed } from 'vue';

const query = computed(() => Object.fromEntries(new URLSearchParams(window.location.search)));
const router = useRouter();
const { handleCallback } = useStrivacity();

onMounted(async () => {
	const url = new URL(location.href);
	const sessionId = url.searchParams.get('session_id');

	if (sessionId) {
		await router.push(`/login?session_id=${sessionId}`);
	} else {
		try {
			await handleCallback();
			await router.push('/profile');
		} catch (error) {
			console.error('Error during callback handling:', error);
		}
	}
});
</script>

<template>
	<section v-if="query.error">
		<h1>Error in authentication</h1>
		<div>
			<h4>{{ query.error }}</h4>
			<p>{{ query.error_description }}</p>
		</div>
	</section>
	<section v-else>
		<h1>Logging in...</h1>
	</section>
</template>
```

#### Entry page example

The entry page processes flows started by an external process (e.g. password reset) by calling `entry()` to extract the necessary parameters to resume the flow and forwarding them to the callback page:

```vue
<script setup>
import { onMounted } from 'vue';

const router = useRouter();
const { entry } = useStrivacity();

onMounted(async () => {
	try {
		const data = await entry();

		if (data && Object.keys(data).length > 0) {
			await router.push(`/callback?${new URLSearchParams(data).toString()}`);
		} else {
			await router.push('/');
		}
	} catch (error) {
		console.error('Entry failed:', error);
		await router.push('/');
	}
});
</script>
```

#### Profile page example

Same as the profile page example in redirect/popup mode.

#### Logout page example

Same as the logout page example in redirect/popup mode.

### Embedded mode

In `embedded` mode the `<sty-login>` web component (loaded via `bundle.js` from the cluster) handles rendering. Import the bundle in a Nuxt plugin to register the Strivacity web components:

```ts
// plugins/strivacity-bundle.client.ts
export default defineNuxtPlugin(() => {
	const config = useRuntimeConfig();
	void import(`${config.public.strivacity.issuer}/assets/components/bundle.js`);
});
```

```ts
// nuxt.config.ts
export default defineNuxtConfig({
	modules: ['@strivacity/sdk-nuxt'],
	strivacity: {
		mode: 'embedded',
		issuer: 'https://<YOUR_DOMAIN>',
		scopes: ['openid', 'profile'],
		clientId: '<YOUR_CLIENT_ID>',
		redirectUri: '<YOUR_REDIRECT_URI>',
	},
});
```

## Logging

The SDK supports optional logging to help you debug authentication flows and monitor SDK behavior. You can enable the built-in console logger or provide your own custom logger implementation.

### Using the Default Logger

Enable the default console logger by adding the `logging` option in `nuxt.config.ts`:

```ts
import { DefaultLogging } from '@strivacity/sdk-nuxt';

export default defineNuxtConfig({
	modules: ['@strivacity/sdk-nuxt'],
	strivacity: {
		mode: 'redirect',
		issuer: 'https://<YOUR_DOMAIN>',
		scopes: ['openid', 'profile'],
		clientId: '<YOUR_CLIENT_ID>',
		redirectUri: '<YOUR_REDIRECT_URI>',
		logging: DefaultLogging,
	},
});
```

### Creating a Custom Logger

Implement the `SDKLogging` interface and pass your class to the `logging` option:

```typescript
import type { SDKLogging } from '@strivacity/sdk-nuxt';

export class MyLogger implements SDKLogging {
	xEventId?: string;

	debug(message: string): void {
		console.debug(this.xEventId ? `[${this.xEventId}] ${message}` : message);
	}

	info(message: string): void {
		console.info(this.xEventId ? `[${this.xEventId}] ${message}` : message);
	}

	warn(message: string): void {
		console.warn(this.xEventId ? `[${this.xEventId}] ${message}` : message);
	}

	error(message: string, error: Error): void {
		console.error(this.xEventId ? `[${this.xEventId}] ${message}` : message, error);
	}
}
```

The `SDKLogging` interface requires `debug`, `info`, `warn`, and `error` methods. The optional `xEventId` property, when set by the SDK, provides a correlation ID to trace related log messages across the authentication flow.

## API Documentation
