Create an authentication provider for Visual Studio Code (2023)

I previously wrote how you can use the Microsoft Authentication Provider in the Visual Studio Code extension for Azure AD Custom Applications. In this article, we'll go one step further and build our authentication provider from scratch. As

By default, VS Code supportsGithub,Firma Github, Imicrosoftauthentication provider. If you're using a different service or authentication service, you'll probably want to create an authentication provider.

There are two good sources to learn:

Began

Creating an authentication provider starts with creating a new oneClasswhich has been implemented sinceauthentication providerInterface.

For example, I'll use Auth0 for this example.

The implementation of the authentication provider requires the following methods:

  • in DidChange sessions: handling events when the authentication session changes;
  • get sessions: VS Code calls this method to check for authenticated sessions;
  • create a session: The method is called when a new authenticated session is about to be created. Similar to login.
  • delete session: Similar to logging out of a service. This is where the session is removed from the cache.

The schema of this class is as follows:

Create a session

First, let's create a session. As already mentioned, this is where you log in to the authentication service.

For Auth0, we first login, retrieve the token, retrieve the user information, and save it as an authentication session.

Hecreate a sessionThe method looks like this:

123456789101112131415sixteen17181920212223242526272829303132333435363738
until AUTHENTICATION TYPE = 'creer0';until AUTH_NAME = "Creer0";until SECRET_KEY_SESSIONS = `psAUTHENTICATION TYPE}.sessions`Export Class Auth0AuthenticationProvider implemented authentication provider, Available {  // Abbreviated for brevity public asynchronous create a session(areas:chain[]): Promise<authentication session> { attempt { until Sign = wait He.Record(areas); And (!Sign) { to throw nuevo Error("Auth0 login failed."); } until User information: { Name:chain, Email:chain } = wait He.get user information(Sign); until meeting:authentication session = { ID:uuid(), token de acceso:Sign, Account: { label:user info.nombre, ID:user information.email }, areas: [] }; wait He.context.mysteries.save to your computer(SECRET_KEY_SESSIONS, JSON.stretch([meeting])) He._sessionChangeEmiter.Feuer({ aggregate: [meeting], REMOTE: [], change: [] }); give back meeting; } catch (mi) { Ventana.show error message("Login error:psmi}`); to throw mi; } }}

The authentication session is stored in a VS Code secret store and is then used byget sessionsIdelete sessionmethods.

login method

All the logic is inRecordMethod:

123456789101112131415sixteen1718192021222324252627282930313233343536373839404142434445464748495051525354555657585960616263
until AUTHENTICATION TYPE = 'creer0';until AUTH_NAME = "Creer0";until CUSTOMER IDENTIFICATION = `3GUryQ7ldAeKEuD2obYnppsnmj58eP5u`;until AUTH0_DOMAIN = `dev-txghew0y.us.auth0.com`;until SECRET_KEY_SESSIONS = `psAUTHENTICATION TYPE}.sessions`Export Class Auth0AuthenticationProvider implemented authentication provider, Available {  // Abbreviated for brevity Private asynchronous Record(areas:chain[] = []) { give back wait Ventana.with progress<chain>({ Location:ProgressLocation.Notification, title: "Login to Auth0...", canceled:TRUE }, asynchronous (_, Sign) => { until status identifier = uuid(); He._pending states.Press(status identifier); And (!areas.contains("open identification")) { areas.Press("open identification"); } And (!areas.contains('Profile')) { areas.Press('Profile'); } And (!areas.contains('Email')) { areas.Press('Email'); } until RangoCadena = areas.to combine(''); until takieParams = nuevo URL search parameters([ ["response_type", "Sign"], ['Customer identification', CUSTOMER IDENTIFICATION], ["Redirects", He.redirect], ['Condition: disease', status identifier], ['Range', RangoCadena], ['track', "Record"] ]); until tu = uri.analyze(`https://psAUTH0_DOMAIN}/authorize?pstakieParams.to expansion()}`); wait Get marry.open to the outside(tu); permission Code Exchange Promise = He._codeExchangePromises.receive(RangoCadena); And (!Code Exchange Promise) { Code Exchange Promise = event promise(He._uriHandler.Autumn, He.manejar Uri(areas)); He._codeExchangePromises.Opinion(RangoCadena, Code Exchange Promise); } attempt { give back wait Promise.carrera([ Code Exchange Promise.promise, nuevo Promise<chain>(((_, decline) => set time limit(() => decline('Canceled'), 60000)), event promise<all, all>(Sign.on the date of the Cancellation Request, (_, __, decline) => { decline("User Canceled"); }).promise ]); } At last { He._pending states = He._pending states.Filter(norte => norte !== status identifier); Code Exchange Promise?.Cancel.Feuer(); He._codeExchangePromises.extinguish(RangoCadena); } }); }}

What happens inside the login method?

The login method does the following:

  • Create and save a unique state ID. The status ID is verified after login.
  • Verify that the default permission scopes (OpenID, Profile, and Email) have been added.
  • Create the authorization URL with the necessary query string parameters. HeredirectsThis is very important.
  • Open the authorization URL in your browser.
  • Wait for the token to return, which will then be processedmanejar UriMethod.

The redirect URI for VS Code and how the redirect is handled

To make sure your extension can get a code/token you need to use or create a localhost serviceUriHandler. HeUriHandlerallows the listener to open an instance of the plugin in VS Code.

The URI format looks like this:

12
everywhere://.vscode-insider://.

The code that implements the URI handler looks like this:

123456789101112131415sixteen171819202122232425262728293031323334353637383940414243444546
Class UriEventHandler expanded event emitter<uri> implemented UriHandler { public manejar Uri(tu:uri) { He.Feuer(tu); }}Export Class Auth0AuthenticationProvider implemented authentication provider, Available {  constructor(Private I just read context:extension context) { He._available = Available.apart from( authentication.registrarseAuthenticationProvider(AUTHENTICATION TYPE, AUTH_NAME, He, { supports multiple accounts:MISTAKEN }), Ventana.registrarseUriHandler(He._uriHandler) // Register the URI handler ) } // Abbreviated for brevity /*** Supports redirection to VS Code (after Auth0 login)* Ranges of @parameters* @returns*/ Private manejar Uri: (areas:I just read chain[]) => promise adapter<uri, chain> =  (areas) => asynchronous (tu, decision on the matter, decline) => { until Consultation = nuevo URL search parameters(tu.Fragment); until token de acceso = Consultation.receive("token de acceso"); until Stan = Consultation.receive('Condition: disease'); And (!token de acceso) { decline(nuevo Error("No token")); give back; } And (!Stan) { decline(nuevo Error("Stateless")); give back; } // Verify that this is a valid authentication request initiated by the extension And (!He._pending states.some(norte => norte === Stan)) { decline(nuevo Error("State not found")); give back; } decision on the matter(token de acceso); }}

The way the redirect is handled depends on the authentication provider you are using. In the case of Auth0, it is a token and additional information of this typeStanthey are provided as URI fragments.

For example, if you're using Azure AD authentication, this is provided as a query string parameter.

The access token is returned tocreate a sessionmethod and has an authenticated session.

Get current session

After creating the session, it's time to close it.get sessionsMethod.

VS Code calls this method when the extension usesAuthentication. get session. What we need to do here is get the session data from the secret store and return the session if it exists.

123456789101112131415sixteen17181920212223
until AUTHENTICATION TYPE = 'creer0';until SECRET_KEY_SESSIONS = `psAUTHENTICATION TYPE}.sessions`Export Class Auth0AuthenticationProvider implemented authentication provider, Available {  // Abbreviated for brevity /*** Download existing sessions* Ranges of @parameters* @returns*/ public asynchronous get sessions(areas?:chain[]): Promise<I just read authentication session[]> { until all sessions = wait He.context.mysteries.receive(SECRET_KEY_SESSIONS); And (all sessions) { give back JSON.analyze(all sessions) And authentication session[]; } give back []; }}

delete session

Hedelete sessionThe method is called when you unsubscribe from your extension. it will happensession idof authenticated sessions.

Using a custom authentication provider

Once you've implemented the authentication provider, you need to register it in VS Code. You can do it in the following way:

1234567
Export asynchronous function Activate(context:extension context) {context.subscriptions.Press(nuevo Auth0AuthenticationProvider(context)); }

To use an authentication provider, simply add the following code to our extension:

1234
until meeting = wait everywhere.authentication.get session("creer0", [], { create if not:MISTAKEN });And (meeting) { everywhere.Ventana.displayInformationMessage("Welcome back."psmeeting.Account.label}`)}

The result looks like this:

Comments

The Auth0 authentication provider code is intended as an example to show what is required to implement a custom authentication provider.

To complete the provider, it is best to implement the following instructions:

  • Just store the refresh token and get a new access token with the refresh token when initializing the extension.
  • Verify that the refresh token is still valid. If not, delete the session.
