Rails wrapper for MyInfo API

tests

MyInfo V4

MyInfo Documentation (Public)

Note: Currently this gem only supports public_facing = true for MyInfo V4 API.

Basic Setup (Public)

  1. bundle add myinfo
  2. Create a config/initializers/myinfo.rb and add the required configuration based on your environment.
  MyInfo.configure do |config|
    config.app_id = ''
    config.client_id = ''
    config.client_secret = ''
    config.base_url = 'test.api.myinfo.gov.sg'
    config.redirect_uri = 'https://localhost:3001/callback'
    config.public_facing = true
    config.sandbox = false # optional, false by default
    config.private_encryption_key = ''
    config.private_signing_key = ''
    config.authorise_jwks_base_url = "test.authorise.singpass.gov.sg"
    # setup proxy here if needed
    config.proxy = { address: 'proxy_address', port: 'proxy_port' } # optional, nil by default
    config.gateway_url = 'https://test_gateway_url' # optional, nil by default
    config.gateway_key = '44d953c796cccebcec9bdc826852857ab412fbe2' # optional, nil by default
  end
  1. Generate the code verifier and code challenge and manage a session to their frontend to link the code_verifier and code_challenge.
code_verifier, code_challenge = MyInfo::V4::Session.call
  1. On callback url triggered, obtain a MyInfo::V4::Token. This token can only be used once.
key_pairs = SecurityHelper.generate_session_key_pair
response = MyInfo::V4::Token.call(
  key_pairs: key_pairs,
  auth_code: params[:code],
  code_verifier: session[:code_verifier]
)

access_token = response.data
  1. Obtain the access_token from the response and query for MyInfo::V4::Person:
response = MyInfo::V4::Person.call(key_pairs: key_pairs, access_token: access_token)

MyInfo V3

MyInfo Documentation (Public)

MyInfo Documentation (Government)

Basic Setup (Public)

  1. bundle add myinfo
  2. Create a config/initializers/myinfo.rb and add the required configuration based on your environment.
  MyInfo.configure do |config|
    config.app_id = ''
    config.client_id = ''
    config.client_secret = ''
    config.base_url = 'test.api.myinfo.gov.sg'
    config.redirect_uri = 'https://localhost:3001/callback'
    config.public_facing = true
    config.private_key = File.read(Rails.root.join('private_key_location'))
    config.public_cert = File.read(Rails.root.join('public_cert_location'))
    config.sandbox = false # optional, false by default
    config.proxy = { address: 'proxy_address', port: 'proxy_port' } # optional, nil by default
    config.gateway_url = 'https://test_gateway_url' # optional, nil by default
    config.gateway_key = '44d953c796cccebcec9bdc826852857ab412fbe2' # optional, nil by default
  end
  1. To obtain a person's MyInfo information, we need to authorise the query first:
redirect_to MyInfo::V3::AuthoriseUrl.call(
      purpose: 'set your purpose here',
      state: SecureRandom.hex # set a state to check on callback
    )
  1. On redirect_url, obtain a MyInfo::V3::Token. This token can only be used once.
    response = MyInfo::V3::Token.call(
      code: params[:code],
      state: params[:state]
    )
  1. Obtain the access_token from the response and query for MyInfo::V3::Person:
result = MyInfo::V3::Person.call(access_token: response.data) if response.success?

Basic Setup (Government)

  1. bundle add myinfo
  2. Create a config/initializers/myinfo.rb and add the required configuration based on your environment.
  MyInfo.configure do |config|
    config.app_id = ''
    config.client_id = ''
    config.client_secret = ''
    config.base_url = 'test.api.myinfo.gov.sg'
    config.redirect_uri = 'https://localhost:3001/callback'
    config.singpass_eservice_id = 'MYINFO-CONSENTPLATFORM'
    config.private_key = File.read(Rails.root.join('private_key_location'))
    config.public_cert = File.read(Rails.root.join('public_cert_location'))
    config.sandbox = false # optional, false by default
    config.proxy = { address: 'proxy_address', port: 'proxy_port' } # optional, nil by default
    config.gateway_url = 'https://test_gateway_url' #optional, nil by default
    config.gateway_key = '44d953c796cccebcec9bdc826852857ab412fbe2' #optional, nil by default
  end
  1. To obtain a person's MyInfo information, we need to authorise the query first:
redirect_to MyInfo::V3::AuthoriseUrl.call(
      nric_fin: "user's NRIC", # see documentation for list of sample NRICs
      purpose: 'set your purpose here',
      state: SecureRandom.hex # set a state to check on callback
    )
  1. On redirect_url, obtain a MyInfo::V3::Token. This token can only be used once.
    response = MyInfo::V3::Token.call(
      code: params[:code],
      state: params[:state]
    )
  1. Obtain the access_token from the response and query for MyInfo::V3::Person:
result = MyInfo::V3::Person.call(access_token: response.data) if response.success?

Sample App Demo

  1. git clone git@github.com:GovTechSG/myinfo-rails.git
  2. cd myinfo-rails
  3. bundle install
  4. cd spec/dummy && rails s
  5. Navigate to localhost:3001

Advanced

  • attributes can be passed to AuthoriseUrl and Person as an array to override the default attributes queried - check MyInfo for a list of available attributes.

  • success? can be called on MyInfo::V3::Response to determine whether the query has succeeded or failed. Check MyInfo API for a list of responses and how to handle them.
