Koa CSRF

CSRF tokens for koa.

Install

npm install koa-csrf

API

To install, do:

require('koa-csrf')(app, options)

Options

All options are passed to csrf-tokens.

this.csrf

Lazily creates a CSRF token. CSRF tokens change on every request. Returns null if session is invalid.

app.use(function* () {
  this.render({
    csrf: this.csrf
  })
})

this.assertCSRF([body])

Check the CSRF token of a request with an optional body. Will throw if the CSRF token does not exist or is not valid.

app.use(function* () {
  var body = yield parse(this) // co-body or something
  try {
    this.assertCSRF(body)
  } catch (err) {
    this.status = 403
    this.body = {
      message: 'This CSRF token is invalid!'
    }
    return
  }
})

Middleware

koa-csrf also provide a koa middleware, it is similar to connect-csrf. in most situation, you only need:

var koa = require('koa')
var csrf = require('koa-csrf')
var session = require('koa-session')

var app = koa()
app.keys = ['session secret']
session(app)
app.use(csrf())

app.use(function* () {
  if (this.method === 'GET') {
    this.body = this.csrf
  } else if (this.method === 'POST') {
    this.status = 204
  }
})
