### PR Description
|
||||
|
||||
```markdown
|
||||
## What?
|
||||
Add OAuth2 authentication support for Google and GitHub providers, allowing users to sign in with their social accounts.
|
||||
|
||||
## Why?
|
||||
Multiple users have requested social login to reduce friction during signup (issues #234, #156). This addresses a key pain point: 40% of attempted signups are abandoned at the password creation step according to our analytics.
|
||||
|
||||
This implements Key Result 2 of Q4 OKR1: "Reduce signup friction by 30%"
|
||||
|
||||
## How?
|
||||
- Implemented OAuth2 flow using passport.js strategy pattern
|
||||
- Added provider configuration via environment variables (no hardcoded secrets)
|
||||
- Created callback routes for each provider:
|
||||
- `/auth/google/callback`
|
||||
- `/auth/github/callback`
|
||||
- Updated user model to link social accounts with existing email-based accounts
|
||||
- Added middleware to automatically merge accounts if user already exists with same email
|
||||
- Implemented proper error handling for failed OAuth attempts
|
||||
|
||||
## Testing
|
||||
|
||||
### Setup
|
||||
1. Create OAuth apps in developer consoles:
|
||||
- Google: https://console.cloud.google.com/apis/credentials
|
||||
- GitHub: https://github.com/settings/developers
|
||||
2. Add credentials to `.env` file (see `.env.example` for required variables)
|
||||
3. Run `npm install` to ensure passport dependencies are installed
|
||||
|
||||
### Manual Testing Steps
|
||||
1. Start server: `npm start`
|
||||
2. Navigate to `http://localhost:3000/login`
|
||||
3. Click "Login with Google" button
|
||||
4. Verify OAuth flow redirects to Google consent screen
|
||||
5. Grant permissions
|
||||
6. Verify redirect back to app with user logged in
|
||||
7. Check user profile shows data from Google (name, email, avatar)
|
||||
8. Repeat steps 3-7 for GitHub provider
|
||||
|
||||
### Test Cases Covered
|
||||
- ✅ New user signup via OAuth
|
||||
- ✅ Existing user login via OAuth
|
||||
- ✅ Account merging (same email, different provider)
|
||||
- ✅ Error handling (user denies permissions)
|
||||
- ✅ Error handling (OAuth provider timeout)
|
||||
- ✅ Security: CSRF token validation
|
||||
|
||||
### Automated Tests
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
npm test -- tests/auth/oauth.test.js
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
All 15 test cases pass, including edge cases.
|
||||

## Related Issues
|
||||
Closes #234
|
||||
Relates to #156 (social login epic)
|
||||
|
||||
## Screenshots
|
||||
|
||||
### Login Page with OAuth Buttons
|
||||

|
||||
*New social login buttons integrated into existing login page*
|
||||
|
||||
### OAuth Consent Screen (Google)
|
||||

|
||||
*User experience during Google OAuth flow*
|
||||
|
||||
## Breaking Changes
|
||||
None - this is additive functionality that doesn't affect existing authentication methods.
|
||||
|
||||
## Security Considerations
|
||||
- OAuth tokens are stored securely using bcrypt hashing
|
||||
- CSRF protection implemented for all OAuth routes
|
||||
- State parameter used to prevent CSRF attacks
|
||||
- No secrets committed to repository (all in .env)
|
||||
- Rate limiting applied to OAuth endpoints
|
||||
|
||||
## Additional Notes
|
||||
|
||||
### Design Decisions
|
||||
- **Chose passport.js** over custom implementation for security, maintenance, and community support
|
||||
- **Used strategy pattern** to make adding new OAuth providers easier in future
|
||||
- **Account merging** happens automatically based on email address (primary key)
|
||||
- **No email verification required** for OAuth signups (providers already verify emails)
|
||||
|
||||
### Future Improvements
|
||||
Consider in follow-up PRs:
|
||||
- Add more providers (Twitter, LinkedIn, Microsoft)
|
||||
- Implement OAuth token refresh logic
|
||||
- Add rate limiting for OAuth endpoints
|
||||
- Add admin dashboard for managing OAuth apps
|
||||
|
||||
### Migration Notes
|
||||
No migration needed - existing users can continue using password authentication. OAuth is an additional option.
|
||||
|
||||
### Dependencies Added
|
||||
- passport v0.6.0
|
||||
- passport-google-oauth20 v2.0.0
|
||||
- passport-github2 v0.1.12
|
||||
|
||||
All dependencies are actively maintained and have good security track records.
|
||||

### Communication During Review
|
||||
|
||||
**Initial Comment (When Submitting):**
|
||||
```
|
||||
Hi @maintainer! 👋
|
||||
|
||||
I've implemented OAuth2 support as discussed in #234. I went with passport.js over a custom implementation because:
|
||||
1. Battle-tested security
|
||||
2. Well-maintained by the community
|
||||
3. Easy to add more providers in future
|
||||
|
||||
I've tested this locally for the past week and also deployed to staging for integration testing. All existing auth flows remain unchanged - this is purely additive.
|
||||
|
||||
Ready for review when you have time! Happy to make any changes you'd like.
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Response to Feedback:**
|
||||
```
|
||||
> Could you add rate limiting to these endpoints?
|
||||
|
||||
Good idea! I've added rate limiting in commit abc1234:
|
||||
- Max 5 OAuth attempts per IP per minute
|
||||
- Returns 429 with Retry-After header
|
||||
- Uses existing rate limiting middleware
|
||||
|
||||
Let me know if you'd prefer different limits!
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**After Changes:**
|
||||
```
|
||||
@maintainer I've addressed all your feedback:
|
||||
- ✅ Added rate limiting (commit abc1234)
|
||||
- ✅ Updated docs with security considerations (commit def5678)
|
||||
- ✅ Refactored callback logic as suggested (commit ghi9012)
|
||||
|
||||
Marked all conversations as resolved. Ready for re-review!
|
||||
|
||||
Thanks for the thorough feedback - the rate limiting suggestion was spot-on.
|
||||
