Doorkeeper is a gem that makes it easy to introduce OAuth 2 provider functionality to your Rails or Grape application.
Please check the documentation for the version of doorkeeper you are using in: https://github.com/doorkeeper-gem/doorkeeper/releases

Put this in your Gemfile:
gem 'doorkeeper'
Run the installation generator with:
rails generate doorkeeper:install
This will install the doorkeeper initializer into config/initializers/doorkeeper.rb
.
By default doorkeeper is configured to use active record, so to start you have to generate the migration tables:
rails generate doorkeeper:migration
You may want to add foreign keys to your migration. For example, if you plan on
using User
as the resource owner, add the following line to the migration file
for each table that includes a resource_owner_id
column:
add_foreign_key :table_name, :users, column: :resource_owner_id
Then run migrations:
rake db:migrate
See doorkeeper-mongodb project for Mongoid and MongoMapper support. Follow along the implementation in that repository to extend doorkeeper with other ORMs.
If you are using Sequel gem then you can add doorkeeper-sequel extension to your project. Follow configuration instructions for setting up the necessary Doorkeeper ORM.
The installation script will also automatically add the Doorkeeper routes into your app, like this:
Rails.application.routes.draw do
use_doorkeeper
# your routes
end
This will mount following routes:
GET /oauth/authorize/:code
GET /oauth/authorize
POST /oauth/authorize
DELETE /oauth/authorize
POST /oauth/token
POST /oauth/revoke
resources /oauth/applications
GET /oauth/authorized_applications
DELETE /oauth/authorized_applications/:id
GET /oauth/token/info
For more information on how to customize routes, check out this page on the wiki.
You need to configure Doorkeeper in order to provide resource_owner
model
and authentication block in config/initializers/doorkeeper.rb
:
Doorkeeper.configure do
resource_owner_authenticator do
User.find_by_id(session[:current_user_id]) || redirect_to(login_url)
end
end
This code is run in the context of your application so you have access to your
models, session or routes helpers. However, since this code is not run in the
context of your application's ApplicationController
it doesn't have access to
the methods defined over there.
You may want to check other ways of authentication here.
See language files in the I18n repository.
To protect your API with OAuth, you just need to setup before_action
s
specifying the actions you want to protect. For example:
class Api::V1::ProductsController < Api::V1::ApiController
before_action :doorkeeper_authorize! # Require access token for all actions
# your actions
end
You can pass any option before_action
accepts, such as if
, only
,
except
, and others.
As of PR 567 doorkeeper has helpers for Grape >= 0.10. One of them is
doorkeeper_authorize!
and can be used in a similar way as an example above.
Note that you have to use require 'doorkeeper/grape/helpers'
and
helpers Doorkeeper::Grape::Helpers
.
For more information about integration with Grape see the Wiki.
require 'doorkeeper/grape/helpers'
module API
module V1
class Users < Grape::API
helpers Doorkeeper::Grape::Helpers
before do
doorkeeper_authorize!
end
route_setting :scopes, ['user:email']
get :emails do
[{'email' => current_user.email}]
end
# ...
end
end
end
You can leverage the Doorkeeper.authenticate
facade to easily extract a
Doorkeeper::OAuth::Token
based on the current request. You can then ensure
that token is still good, find its associated #resource_owner_id
, etc.
module Constraint
class Authenticated
def matches?(request)
token = Doorkeeper.authenticate(request)
token && token.accessible?
end
end
end
For more information about integration and other integrations, check out the related wiki page.
You can also require the access token to have specific scopes in certain actions:
First configure the scopes in initializers/doorkeeper.rb
Doorkeeper.configure do
default_scopes :public # if no scope was requested, this will be the default
optional_scopes :admin, :write
end
And in your controllers:
class Api::V1::ProductsController < Api::V1::ApiController
before_action -> { doorkeeper_authorize! :public }, only: :index
before_action only: [:create, :update, :destroy] do
doorkeeper_authorize! :admin, :write
end
end
Please note that there is a logical OR between multiple required scopes. In the
above example, doorkeeper_authorize! :admin, :write
means that the access
token is required to have either :admin
scope or :write
scope, but does not
need have both of them.
If you want to require the access token to have multiple scopes at the same
time, use multiple doorkeeper_authorize!
, for example:
class Api::V1::ProductsController < Api::V1::ApiController
before_action -> { doorkeeper_authorize! :public }, only: :index
before_action only: [:create, :update, :destroy] do
doorkeeper_authorize! :admin
doorkeeper_authorize! :write
end
end
In the above example, a client can call :create
action only if its access token
has both :admin
and :write
scopes.
By default a 128 bit access token will be generated. If you require a custom
token, such as JWT, specify an object that responds to
.generate(options = {})
and returns a string to be used as the token.
Doorkeeper.configure do
access_token_generator "Doorkeeper::JWT"
end
JWT token support is available with Doorkeeper-JWT.
By default Doorkeeper's main controller Doorkeeper::ApplicationController
inherits from ActionController::Base
.
You may want to use your own controller to inherit from, to keep Doorkeeper controllers in the same context than the rest your app:
Doorkeeper.configure do
base_controller 'ApplicationController'
end
If you want to return data based on the current resource owner, in other words, the access token owner, you may want to define a method in your controller that returns the resource owner instance:
class Api::V1::CredentialsController < Api::V1::ApiController
before_action :doorkeeper_authorize!
respond_to :json
# GET /me.json
def me
respond_with current_resource_owner
end
private
# Find the user that owns the access token
def current_resource_owner
User.find(doorkeeper_token.resource_owner_id) if doorkeeper_token
end
end
In this example, we're returning the credentials (me.json
) of the access
token owner.
By default, the applications list (/oauth/applications
) is publicly available.
To protect the endpoint you should uncomment these lines:
# config/initializers/doorkeeper.rb
Doorkeeper.configure do
admin_authenticator do |routes|
Admin.find_by_id(session[:admin_id]) || redirect_to(routes.new_admin_session_url)
end
end
The logic is the same as the resource_owner_authenticator
block. Note:
since the application list is just a scaffold, it's recommended to either
customize the controller used by the list or skip the controller all together.
For more information see the page
in the wiki.
If you want to upgrade doorkeeper to a new version, check out the upgrading notes and take a look at the changelog.
Doorkeeper follows semantic versioning.
To run the local engine server:
bundle install
bundle exec rails server
By default, it uses the latest Rails version with ActiveRecord. To run the tests with a specific ORM and Rails version:
rails=4.2.0 orm=active_record bundle exec rake
Or you might prefer to run script/run_all
to integrate against all ORMs.

After you set up the provider, you may want to create a client application to test the integration. Check out these client examples in our wiki or follow this tutorial here.
