[keycloak-user] Secure NodeJS API using keycloak - how to authenticate using bearer access type

I have created a rest api in node js and used keycloak-connect npm packge.
I have mapped the nodejs middleware with keycloak middleware and just put
keycloak.Protect() method in side api method.
When the user is not logged in, it shows a login screen and ask for
credential. After login, it shows the result. but I don't want to show a
login screen if user is not already logged in. Instead of that i want to
pass the token and get access based upon that token?
Do i need to do anything in the API code so that it will accept the user
token?
I like to use this api through User interface and set the access type
bearer for this service in the keycloak admin.
see the example:
var express = require('express');
var apiRoutes = express.Router();
var User = require('../models/user');
var jwt = require('jsonwebtoken');
var faker = require('faker');
var session = require('express-session');
var Keycloak = require('keycloak-connect');
var hogan = require('hogan-express');
var memoryStore = new session.MemoryStore();
var keycloak = new Keycloak({store: memoryStore});
app.use(session({
secret: app.get('superSecret'),
resave: false,
saveUninitialized: true,
store: memoryStore
}));
app.use(keycloak.middleware({
logout: '/logout',
admin: '/'
}));
app.get('/api/user',* keycloak.protect()*, function (req, res) {
res.json({
name: faker.name.findName(),
email: faker.internet.email(),
address: faker.address.streetAddress(),
bio: faker.lorem.sentence(),
image: faker.image.avatar()
});
});
Keycloak.json:
{
"realm" : "nodejs-example",
"realm-public-key" :
"MIGfMA0GCSqGSIb3DQEBAQUAA4GNADCBiQKBgQCrVrCuTtArbgaZzL1hvh0x

"auth-server-url" : "http://xxxx:9090/auth",
"ssl-required" : "external",
"resource" : "nodejs-connect",
"public-client" : true
}
Thanks,
Deepak
