Blox-auth | Roblox OAuth2.0 JS/TS library

blox-auth

This library was originally published on October 2022.

Today I want to introduce blox-auth which is a JavaScript library with support for TypeScript made to fasten the process of authenticating users through the new Roblox OAuth2.0 flow.

It acts as a Roblox OAuth2 API wrapper and offers expressjs compatible middlewares.

This library is part of BloxTeams’ ongoing effort to open source.

This library was developed by me and published under BloxTeams. It is licensed to you under the Mozilla Public License Version 2.0.

I’m sure there’s a resource like this called NextAuth

NextAuth is a library specific to the Next.js framework while blox-auth is specific to the express.js framework and even if what you said was the case, it doesn’t mean that there can’t be more that one library.

I don’t really understand what you need to save. Could you be more specific?

example :
when someone connected with his roblox account,
and go to specific page (like dashboard)
It’s really hard for explain

If you want to save their access token and refresh token you can use the authorization middleware as described here: Authorize middleware - blox-auth

Isn’t this basically the same as nextauth but with next.js? What are the advantages of using Blox-auth?
