How does the SDK work for the browser?

Open hrgui opened this issue 3 years ago • 0 comments

Description

In the README.md, it states that this SDK works in the browser.

Supported platforms This SDK can be used on both browser and Node.js environments.

However, it requires a client_id and client_secret.

As per https://uphold.com/en/developer/api/documentation/#registering-an-application:

Security Notice: Your Client Secret should never be shared, must be kept secret at all times and should only be used from your server-side application.

Using it in the browser can potentially expose the client ID and client secret through the JavaScript files. This contradicts how this can be used in the browser - unless I am missing something?

Is there any examples that use this SDK in a browser-based way?
