BkperAuth

OAuth authentication client for the Bkper API.

Provides framework-agnostic authentication with callback-based event handling. Access tokens are stored in-memory; sessions persist via HTTP-only cookies.

Example

// Initialize authentication client
const auth = new BkperAuth({
onLoginSuccess: () => loadUserData(),
onLoginRequired: () => showLoginButton()
});
// Restore session on app load
await auth.init();

Constructors

Constructor

new BkperAuth(config?): BkperAuth;

Creates a new BkperAuth instance.

Parameters

ParameterTypeDescription
config?BkperAuthConfigOptional configuration for the auth client

Returns

BkperAuth

Example

// Simple usage with defaults
const auth = new BkperAuth();
// With callbacks
const auth = new BkperAuth({
onLoginSuccess: () => console.log('Logged in!'),
onLoginRequired: () => showLoginDialog(),
onError: (error) => console.error(error)
});

Methods

getAccessToken()

getAccessToken(): string | undefined;

Gets the current access token.

Returns

string | undefined

The access token if authenticated, undefined otherwise

Example

const token = auth.getAccessToken();
if (token) {
// Make authenticated API calls
fetch('/api/data', {
headers: { 'Authorization': `Bearer ${token}` }
});
}

init()

init(): Promise<void>;

Initializes the authentication state by attempting to refresh the access token.

Call this method when your app loads to restore the user’s session. Triggers onLoginSuccess if a valid session exists, or onLoginRequired if login is needed.

Returns

Promise<void>


login()

login(): void;

Redirects the user to the login page.

The user will be redirected to the authentication service to complete the login flow. After successful login, they will be redirected back to the current page.

Returns

void

Example

// Trigger login when user clicks a button
loginButton.addEventListener('click', () => {
auth.login();
});

logout()

logout(): void;

Logs out the user and redirects to the logout page.

Triggers the onLogout callback before redirecting. The user’s session will be terminated.

Returns

void

Example

// Logout when user clicks logout button
logoutButton.addEventListener('click', () => {
auth.logout();
});

refresh()

refresh(): Promise<void>;

Refreshes the access token using the current session.

Call this when API requests return 403 to get a new token and retry. Triggers onTokenRefresh callback if successful. Throws error if the refresh fails (network error, expired session, etc.).

Returns

Promise<void>

Example

// Handle 403 by refreshing and retrying
const response = await fetch('/api/data', {
headers: { 'Authorization': `Bearer ${auth.getAccessToken()}` }
});
if (response.status === 403) {
await auth.refresh();
// Retry with new token
return fetch('/api/data', {
headers: { 'Authorization': `Bearer ${auth.getAccessToken()}` }
});
}
