As relying party we are going to use a JS library created by Nat Sakimura. `Here is the article <https://nat.sakimura.org/2014/12/10/making-a-javascript-openid-connect-client/>`_.
var providerInfo = OIDC.discover('http://localhost:8000');
OIDC.setProviderInfo(providerInfo);
OIDC.storeInfo(providerInfo, clientInfo);
// Restore configuration information.
OIDC.restoreInfo();
// Get Access Token
var token = OIDC.getAccessToken();
// Make userinfo request using access_token.
if (token !== null) {
$.get('http://localhost:8000/userinfo/?access_token='+token, function( data ) {
alert('USERINFO: '+ JSON.stringify(data));
});
}
// Make an authorization request if the user click the login button.
$('#login-button').click(function (event) {
OIDC.login({
scope : 'openid profile email',
response_type : 'id_token token'
});
});
});
</script>
</body>
</html>
..note::
Remember that you must set your client_id (line 21).
**03. Make an authorization request**
By clicking the login button an authorization request has been made to the provider. After you accept it, the provider will redirect back to your previously registered ``redirect_uri`` with all the tokens requested.
**04. Requesting user information**
Now having the access_token in your hands you can request the user information by making a request to the ``/userinfo`` endpoint of the provider.
In this example we display information in the alert box.
