Node.js SDK — Authentication

Server-side auth in Workers/Node.js is about verifying tokens and extracting user context.

Verify an access token

import { AerostackClient } from '@aerostack/sdk'
 
const { sdk } = new AerostackClient({ projectId, apiKey })
 
// In your request handler:
const authHeader = request.headers.get('Authorization')
const token = authHeader?.replace('Bearer ', '')
 
const user = await sdk.auth.verifyToken(token)
// user: { id, email, name, customFields, ... } | null

Middleware pattern (Hono)

import { Hono } from 'hono'
import { createMiddleware } from 'hono/factory'
 
const authMiddleware = createMiddleware(async (c, next) => {
  const token = c.req.header('Authorization')?.replace('Bearer ', '')
  if (!token) return c.json({ error: 'Unauthorized' }, 401)
 
  const user = await sdk.auth.verifyToken(token)
  if (!user) return c.json({ error: 'Invalid token' }, 401)
 
  c.set('user', user)
  await next()
})
 
const app = new Hono()
app.get('/me', authMiddleware, async (c) => {
  return c.json(c.get('user'))
})
