CSRF tokens for Koa

NOTE: As of v5.0.0+ ctx.csrf, ctx_csrf, and ctx.response.csrf are removed – instead use ctx.state._csrf. Furthermore we have dropped invalidTokenMessage and invalidTokenStatusCode in favor of an errorHandler function option.

npm:

npm install koa-csrf

1. Add middleware in Koa app (see options below):

   const Koa = require('koa');
   const bodyParser = require('koa-bodyparser');
   const session = require('koa-generic-session');
   const convert = require('koa-convert');
   const CSRF = require('koa-csrf');
   const app = new Koa();
   // set the session keys
   app.keys = [ 'a', 'b' ];
   // add session support
   app.use(convert(session()));
   // add body parsing
   app.use(bodyParser());
   // add the CSRF middleware
   app.use(new CSRF());
   // your middleware here (e.g. parse a form submit)
   app.use((ctx, next) => {
    if (![ 'GET', 'POST' ].includes(ctx.method))
    return next();
    if (ctx.method === 'GET') {
    ctx.body = ctx.state._csrf;
    return;
    }
    ctx.body = 'OK';
   });
   app.listen();

2. Add the CSRF token in your template forms:

   Jade Template:

   form(action='/register', method='POST')
    input(type='hidden', name='_csrf', value=_csrf)
    input(type='email', name='email', placeholder='Email')
    input(type='password', name='password', placeholder='Password')
    button(type='submit') Register

   EJS Template:

   <form action="/register" method="POST">
    <input type="hidden" name="_csrf" value="<%= _csrf %>" />
    <input type="email" name="email" placeholder="Email" />
    <input type="password" name="password" placeholder="Password" />
    <button type="submit">Register</button>
   </form>

• errorHandler (Function) - defaults to a function that returns ctx.throw(403, 'Invalid CSRF token')
• excludedMethods (Array) - defaults to [ 'GET', 'HEAD', 'OPTIONS' ]
• disableQuery (Boolean) - defaults to false
• ignoredPathGlobs (Array) - defaults to an empty Array, but you can pass an Array of glob paths to ignore
