Passport.js Integration

Learn to integrate Passport.js strategies, such as Local and JWT, for flexible and robust authentication flows.

Meet Passport.js

Welcome to integrating Passport.js with NestJS! Passport is a popular authentication middleware for Node.js applications.

It provides a flexible and modular way to handle different authentication mechanisms, known as 'strategies'. NestJS has excellent integration with Passport, making it easy to secure your APIs.

Setting Up Passport.js

To get started, you'll need to install a few packages. We'll install the core Passport packages for NestJS and specific strategies for local (username/password) and JWT authentication.

  • @nestjs/passport: NestJS integration
  • passport: Core Passport.js library
  • passport-local: For username/password authentication
  • passport-jwt: For JSON Web Token authentication
npm install @nestjs/passport passport passport-local passport-jwt
