Google OAuth 2.0 / OIDC + Gmail, Calendar & Drive Emulator

OAuth 2.0 and OpenID Connect emulation with authorization code flow, PKCE support, ID tokens, OIDC discovery, refresh tokens, plus Gmail, Google Calendar, and Google Drive REST API surfaces.

Start

# Google only
npx emulate --service google

# Default port
# http://localhost:4002

Or programmatically:

import { createEmulator } from 'emulate'

const google = await createEmulator({ service: 'google', port: 4002 })
// google.url === 'http://localhost:4002'

Pointing Your App at the Emulator

Environment Variable

GOOGLE_EMULATOR_URL=http://localhost:4002

When no OAuth clients are configured, the emulator accepts any client_id. With clients configured, strict validation is enforced for client_id, client_secret, and redirect_uri.

Hosted domain (hd) claim

Google Workspace accounts include an hd claim in ID tokens and userinfo responses identifying the user's hosted domain. The emulator derives this automatically from the user's email domain. Consumer domains (gmail.com, googlemail.com) omit the claim, matching real Google behavior.

To override the derived value, set hd on a seeded user. To suppress the claim entirely, set hd to an empty string.

OAuth / OIDC Endpoints

OIDC Discovery

curl http://localhost:4002/.well-known/openid-configuration

JWKS

curl http://localhost:4002/oauth2/v3/certs

Returns { "keys": [] }. ID tokens are signed with HS256 using an internal secret.

Authorization

# Browser flow: redirects to a user picker page
curl -v "http://localhost:4002/o/oauth2/v2/auth?\
client_id=my-client-id.apps.googleusercontent.com&\
redirect_uri=http://localhost:3000/api/auth/callback/google&\
scope=openid+email+profile&\
response_type=code&\
state=random-state&\
nonce=random-nonce"

Supports code_challenge and code_challenge_method for PKCE.

Token Exchange

curl -X POST http://localhost:4002/oauth2/token \
  -H "Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded" \
  -d "code=<authorization_code>&\
client_id=my-client-id.apps.googleusercontent.com&\
client_secret=GOCSPX-secret&\
redirect_uri=http://localhost:3000/api/auth/callback/google&\
grant_type=authorization_code"

Also accepts application/json body. Returns:

{
  "access_token": "google_...",
  "refresh_token": "google_refresh_...",
  "id_token": "<jwt>",
  "token_type": "Bearer",
  "expires_in": 3600,
  "scope": "openid email profile"
}

Refresh Token

curl -X POST http://localhost:4002/oauth2/token \
  -H "Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded" \
  -d "refresh_token=google_refresh_...&\
client_id=my-client-id.apps.googleusercontent.com&\
client_secret=GOCSPX-secret&\
grant_type=refresh_token"

Returns a new access_token (no new refresh_token or id_token on refresh).

User Info

curl http://localhost:4002/oauth2/v2/userinfo \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer google_..."

Token Revocation

curl -X POST http://localhost:4002/oauth2/revoke \
  -H "Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded" \
  -d "token=google_..."

Gmail API

All Gmail endpoints are under /gmail/v1/users/:userId/... where :userId is me or the authenticated user's email.

Common Patterns

Full Authorization Code Flow

GOOGLE_URL="http://localhost:4002"
CLIENT_ID="my-client-id.apps.googleusercontent.com"
CLIENT_SECRET="GOCSPX-secret"
REDIRECT_URI="http://localhost:3000/api/auth/callback/google"

# 1. Open in browser (user picks a seeded account)
#    $GOOGLE_URL/o/oauth2/v2/auth?client_id=$CLIENT_ID&redirect_uri=$REDIRECT_URI&scope=openid+email+profile&response_type=code&state=abc

# 2. After user selection, emulator redirects to:
#    $REDIRECT_URI?code=<code>&state=abc

# 3. Exchange code for tokens
curl -X POST $GOOGLE_URL/oauth2/token \
  -H "Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded" \
  -d "code=<code>&client_id=$CLIENT_ID&client_secret=$CLIENT_SECRET&redirect_uri=$REDIRECT_URI&grant_type=authorization_code"

# 4. Fetch user info with the access_token
curl $GOOGLE_URL/oauth2/v2/userinfo \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer <access_token>"

OIDC Discovery-Based Setup

import { Issuer } from 'openid-client'

const googleIssuer = await Issuer.discover(
  process.env.GOOGLE_EMULATOR_URL ?? 'https://accounts.google.com'
)

const client = new googleIssuer.Client({
  client_id: process.env.GOOGLE_CLIENT_ID,
  client_secret: process.env.GOOGLE_CLIENT_SECRET,
  redirect_uris: ['http://localhost:3000/api/auth/callback/google'],
})

Send a Gmail Message and Check the Thread

TOKEN="test_token_admin"
BASE="http://localhost:4002"

# Send a message
curl -X POST $BASE/gmail/v1/users/me/messages/send \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $TOKEN" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"to": "[email protected]", "subject": "Test", "body_text": "Hello"}'

# List threads in INBOX
curl "$BASE/gmail/v1/users/me/threads?labelIds=INBOX" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $TOKEN"
