[keycloak-user] Example of npm keycloak-connect with bearer or JWT

[Kevin Berendsen]

Hi Austin,

The token stored in the session storage of the Node.js application is the JWT. If you program your application to output the stored token and parse it into the jwt.io website, you will be able to see the actual content of the token. This token is also used as bearer token. 

The only reason to use the token as bearer token is when you wish to get access of cross origin resources that are protected by your Keycloak instance. 

If you want to use your node.js application as your resource server, then configure the client in Keycloak to be a bearer-only client that accepts only bearer tokens in the HTTP Authorization header. 

Things to do:
• Go to your Keycloak instance and configure your Client’s Access Type to ‘bearer-only’;
• Generate a new Keycloak.json file (docs of this configuration file [1])
• Remove the session store from the Keycloak object initialization [2] 
And I believe that’s it.

Kind regards,

Hi Kevin, 
Thanks for getting back to me , I have reviewed that example before , it seems to be using sessions , not bearer or jwt. Correct me if I am wrong I could be missing something. I was hoping to find an implementation of http://blog.keycloak.org/2015/10/authentication-of-clients-with-signed.html.
Regards
Austin
