Authenticate user for socket.io/nodejs
I have a php login, the user puts in a username/password, it checks the mysql db against the login information. If authenticated a session is create开发者_运维知识库d via php and the user can now access the system with the php session. My question is once they authenticate via php/session what would be the process to authorize the user to see if they have the right login permissions to access a nodejs server with socket.io? I dont want the person to have access to the nodejs/socket.io function/server unless they have authenticated via the php login.
Update
Requirements:
- First have redis running.
- Next fire up socket.io.
- Finally upload/host PHP(has dependencies in archive).
Socket.io
var express = require('express'),
app = express.createServer(),
sio = require('socket.io'),
redis = require("redis"),
client = redis.createClient(),
io = null;
/**
* Used to parse cookie
*/
function parse_cookies(_cookies) {
var cookies = {};
_cookies && _cookies.split(';').forEach(function( cookie ) {
var parts = cookie.split('=');
cookies[ parts[ 0 ].trim() ] = ( parts[ 1 ] || '' ).trim();
});
return cookies;
}
app.listen(3000, "localhost");
io = sio.listen(app);
io.of('/private').authorization(function (handshakeData, callback) {
var cookies = parse_cookies(handshakeData.headers.cookie);
client.get(cookies.PHPSESSID, function (err, reply) {
handshakeData.identity = reply;
callback(false, reply !== null);
});
}).on('connection' , function (socket) {
socket.emit('identity', socket.handshake.identity);
});
PHP
php with openid authentication => http://dl.dropbox.com/u/314941/6503745/php.tar.gz
After login you have to reload client.php
to authenticate
p.s: I really don't like the concept of creating even another password which is probably is going to be unsafe. I would advice you to have a look at openID(via Google for example), Facebook Connect(just name a few options).
My question is once they authenticate via php/session what would be the process to authenticate the user to see if they have the right login permissions to access a nodejs server with socket.io? I dont want the person to have access to the nodejs/socket.io function/server unless they have authenticated via the php login.
Add the unique session_id to a list/set of allowed ids so that socket.io can authorize(search for authorization function) that connection. I would let PHP communicate with node.js using redis because that is going to be lightning fast/AWESOME :). Right now I am faking the PHP communication from redis-cli
Install Redis
Download redis => Right now the stable version can be downloaded from: http://redis.googlecode.com/files/redis-2.2.11.tar.gz
alfred@alfred-laptop:~$ mkdir ~/6502031
alfred@alfred-laptop:~/6502031$ cd ~/6502031/
alfred@alfred-laptop:~/6502031$ tar xfz redis-2.2.11.tar.gz
alfred@alfred-laptop:~/6502031$ cd redis-2.2.11/src
alfred@alfred-laptop:~/6502031/redis-2.2.11/src$ make # wait couple of seconds
Start Redis-server
alfred@alfred-laptop:~/6502031/redis-2.2.11/src$ ./redis-server
Socket.io
npm dependencies
If npm
is not already installed , then first visit http://npmjs.org
npm install express
npm install socket.io
npm install redis
listing the dependencies I have installed and which you should also probably install in case of incompatibility according to npm ls

To run server just run node server.js
client.php
<?php
session_start();
echo "<h1>SID: " . session_id() . "</h1>";
?>
<html>
<head>
<script src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.6.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script src="http://localhost:3000/socket.io/socket.io.js"></script>
</head>
<body>
<p id="text">access denied</p>
<script>
var socket = io.connect('http://localhost:3000/');
socket.on('access', function (data) {
$("#text").html(data);
});
</script>
</body>
Test authentication
When you load the webpage(PHP-file) from your web-browser the message access denied
is shown, but when you add the session_id
also shown in browser to redis server the message access granted
will be shown. Of course normally you would not be doing any copy pasting but just let PHP communicate with Redis directly.
ramom807vt1io3sqvmc8m4via1
into redis after which access has been granted.

Remember that sessions are just files stored in the php sessions directory. It won't be a problem for node.js to get the session id from the cookie and then check if the session really exists in the sessions directory. To get the path of the sessions directory refer to the session.save_path directive in your php.ini.
Here's the unserialize and utf8 code if you want it too, originally derived from phpjs.org - had to edit it a bit to make it work with node.js so fish around and compare if you want

I was looking over the solutions here and decided to give what rcode said a try because it seemed so much easier than the gigantic wall of code accepted answer.
It ended up working nicely and is quite easy to do.
I did end up installing a few dependencies which I wanted to avoid but is relatively easy to do with node.
Type the following in console:
npm install cookie
npm install php-unserialize
This solution uses the session files on the machine - you shouldn't have to change this line.
session.save_handler = files
^ Should be like this in your php.ini file (default).
(People suggested using memcache, but it seemed like a headache to switch over to that system.)
Here is the super simple code to retrieve the session data:
var cookie = require('cookie');
var fs = require('fs');
var phpUnserialize = require('php-unserialize');
//This should point to your php session directory.
//My php.ini says session.save_path = "${US_ROOTF}/tmp"
var SESS_PATH = "C:/SomeDirectory/WhereYourPHPIs/tmp/";
io.on('connection', function(socket) {
//I just check if cookies are a string - may be better method
if(typeof socket.handshake.headers.cookie === "string") {
var sid = cookie.parse(socket.handshake.headers.cookie);
if(typeof sid.PHPSESSID === "undefined") {
console.log("Undefined PHPSESSID");
}
else {
console.log("PHP Session ID: " + sid.PHPSESSID);
fs.readFile(SESS_PATH + "sess_" + sid.PHPSESSID, 'utf-8', function(err,data) {
if(!err) {
console.log("Session Data:");
var sd = phpUnserialize.unserializeSession(data);
console.log(sd);
}
else {
console.log(err);
}
});
}
}
}
Results:
Edit: I just wanted to add that it may be easier to just have PHP tell your Node.js server when someone logs in and pass the credentials along there.
I explain how to do this pretty easily in another answer.
