Othent custom events.
Last updated
You can subscribe and unsubscribe to two different types of events from Othent (auth
and error
), using the addEventListener()
and removeEventListener()
functions, respectively.
Additionally, addEventListener()
returns a cleanup function that, when called, removes the event listener it created.
auth
Event:The value you get when calling getUserDetails()
or when subscribing to the auth
event before authenticating by calling connect()
or requireAuth()
(either manually or automatically by setting autoConnect = "eager"
), will be (in this order of priority):
The value you pass as initialUserDetails
, if any.
The value stored in localStorage
, if you set persistLocalStorage
.
null
otherwise.
@othent/kms
does not performs any type of validation when reading the user details from these sources, and therefore you should treat that data as untrusted and make sure you sanitize it appropriately.
Failing to do that could result in your application being vulnerable to XSS if an attacker manages to tamper with these values.
error
Event:Note that error
type events are only fired when you set .
