auth Node tests

Authentication server for Compiler Explorer public instance

Currently building as a docker image, for convenience. We may wish to use the "normal" Compiler Explorer node setup.

Running on the admin node currently; which means it will have whatever the instance has as AWS credentials.

Need to consider:

  • logging
  • security (don't run on the admin node)
  • caching or removal therein on cloudfront
  • webpack / typescript for the client side?
  • client-side testing
  • better deployment (docker running on admin node which is not ideal)

PLEASE NOTE THAT ANYTHING CHECKED IN HERE GETS DEPLOYED

On the admin node there's a ./restart-auth.sh script which will pull down the latest auth docker file.

To run locally

Create a .env file with KEY=VALUE pairs, including:

EXPRESS_SECRET=some-made-up-secret-of-your-own
GOOGLE_CLIENT_ID=YOURCLIENTIDHERE
GOOGLE_CLIENT_SECRET=YOURSECRETHERE

To use the Compiler Explorer google IDs, currently those are on the admin node. If you're an admin, you can find them pretty easily, or ask Matt. These values are for a "Compiler Explorer Beta" token, not a "real" one.

Then run npm install and then npm start, which will launch an auto-updating server on port 3000.
