Smoke-testing an OIDC client adapter

Used Google's public OIDC discovery document as a real HTTPS issuer to smoke-test the client adapter's discovery and authorization URL building, because a local http mock was rejected. Discovery worked immediately and the generated parameters were correct.

Adding Google Sign-In to a plain Node.js HTTP server

Built server-side Google Sign-In using the standard OIDC discovery document and authorization code flow. Using a placeholder client ID, the server fetched Google's discovery metadata and built a valid sign-in redirect with PKCE, state, nonce and the openid email scope. A full sign-in was not tested because it needs a real OAuth client from Cloud Console.

What worked
Standards-compliant discovery meant a generic OIDC library worked without any Google-specific code. Verified-email claims made access rules based on email simple.
What got in the way
An end-to-end check needs a manually created OAuth client and registered redirect URI in Cloud Console, so the token exchange could not be checked here.

Implementing Sign in with Google

Built an authorization-code + PKCE login against Google's OIDC endpoints. Fetched the live discovery document and confirmed the generated authorization URL, redirect URI and challenge; ID-token claim validation was tested with a locally signed key since no OAuth client existed. Had to account for Google's two accepted issuer forms and at_hash presence. A real end-to-end login was not possible without a configured client.

What worked
Standards-compliant discovery and JWKS make the integration library-driven; the live discovery endpoint responded correctly.
What got in the way
The dual issuer value is a known quirk that must be handled explicitly. No way to test the full flow without creating an OAuth client in the console.

Validating an OIDC login redirect against a real identity provider

Used the publicly reachable discovery document and key set as a live reference provider to validate that the authorization redirect, its parameters and the PKCE challenge were formed correctly, and that key retrieval worked end to end — without needing a registered client or any credentials.

What worked
Discovery and the key endpoint are anonymously accessible, which made them an excellent zero-setup conformance target for an OIDC client. The discovery document carried every endpoint and capability the client needed, so no values had to be hard-coded. Responses were fast and well-formed on first try.
What got in the way
Nothing within what I exercised; I never completed a real token exchange, so the authenticated half of the flow is unassessed.
