Auto logout with Angularjs based on idle user

Is it possible to determine if a user is inactive and automatically log them out after say 10 minutes of inactivity using angularjs?

I was trying to avoid using jQuery, but I cannot find any tutorials or articles on how to do this in angularjs. Any help would be appreciated.

Solution 1:

I wrote a module called Ng-Idle that may be useful to you in this situation. Here is the page which contains instructions and a demo.

Basically, it has a service that starts a timer for your idle duration that can be disrupted by user activity (events, such as clicking, scrolling, typing). You can also manually interrupt the timeout by calling a method on the service. If the timeout is not disrupted, then it counts down a warning where you could alert the user they are going to be logged out. If they do not respond after the warning countdown reaches 0, an event is broadcasted that your application can respond to. In your case, it could issue a request to kill their session and redirect to a login page.

Additionally, it has a keep-alive service that can ping some URL at an interval. This can be used by your app to keep a user's session alive while they are active. The idle service by default integrates with the keep-alive service, suspending the pinging if they become idle, and resuming it when they return.

All the info you need to get started is on the site with more details in the wiki. However, here's a snippet of config showing how to sign them out when they time out.

angular.module('demo', ['ngIdle'])
// omitted for brevity
.config(function(IdleProvider, KeepaliveProvider) {
  IdleProvider.idle(10*60); // 10 minutes idle
  IdleProvider.timeout(30); // after 30 seconds idle, time the user out
  KeepaliveProvider.interval(5*60); // 5 minute keep-alive ping
})
.run(function($rootScope) {
    $rootScope.$on('IdleTimeout', function() {
        // end their session and redirect to login
    });
});

var app = angular.module('Application_TimeOut', []);
app.run(function($rootScope, $timeout, $document) {    
    console.log('starting run');

    // Timeout timer value
    var TimeOutTimerValue = 5000;

    // Start a timeout
    var TimeOut_Thread = $timeout(function(){ LogoutByTimer() } , TimeOutTimerValue);
    var bodyElement = angular.element($document);

    /// Keyboard Events
    bodyElement.bind('keydown', function (e) { TimeOut_Resetter(e) });  
    bodyElement.bind('keyup', function (e) { TimeOut_Resetter(e) });    

    /// Mouse Events    
    bodyElement.bind('click', function (e) { TimeOut_Resetter(e) });
    bodyElement.bind('mousemove', function (e) { TimeOut_Resetter(e) });    
    bodyElement.bind('DOMMouseScroll', function (e) { TimeOut_Resetter(e) });
    bodyElement.bind('mousewheel', function (e) { TimeOut_Resetter(e) });   
    bodyElement.bind('mousedown', function (e) { TimeOut_Resetter(e) });        

    /// Touch Events
    bodyElement.bind('touchstart', function (e) { TimeOut_Resetter(e) });       
    bodyElement.bind('touchmove', function (e) { TimeOut_Resetter(e) });        

    /// Common Events
    bodyElement.bind('scroll', function (e) { TimeOut_Resetter(e) });       
    bodyElement.bind('focus', function (e) { TimeOut_Resetter(e) });    

    function LogoutByTimer()
    {
        console.log('Logout');

        ///////////////////////////////////////////////////
        /// redirect to another page(eg. Login.html) here
        ///////////////////////////////////////////////////
    }

    function TimeOut_Resetter(e)
    {
        console.log('' + e);

        /// Stop the pending timeout
        $timeout.cancel(TimeOut_Thread);

        /// Reset the timeout
        TimeOut_Thread = $timeout(function(){ LogoutByTimer() } , TimeOutTimerValue);
    }

})
</script>

</html>

Below code is pure javascript version

<html>
    <head>
        <script type="text/javascript">         
            function logout(){
                console.log('Logout');
            }

            function onInactive(millisecond, callback){
                var wait = setTimeout(callback, millisecond);               
                document.onmousemove = 
                document.mousedown = 
                document.mouseup = 
                document.onkeydown = 
                document.onkeyup = 
                document.focus = function(){
                    clearTimeout(wait);
                    wait = setTimeout(callback, millisecond);                       
                };
            }           
        </script>
    </head> 
    <body onload="onInactive(5000, logout);"></body>
</html>

I updated my solution as @Tom suggestion.

<script>
var app = angular.module('Application_TimeOut', []);
app.run(function($rootScope, $timeout, $document) {    
    console.log('starting run');

    // Timeout timer value
    var TimeOutTimerValue = 5000;

    // Start a timeout
    var TimeOut_Thread = $timeout(function(){ LogoutByTimer() } , TimeOutTimerValue);
    var bodyElement = angular.element($document);

    angular.forEach(['keydown', 'keyup', 'click', 'mousemove', 'DOMMouseScroll', 'mousewheel', 'mousedown', 'touchstart', 'touchmove', 'scroll', 'focus'], 
    function(EventName) {
         bodyElement.bind(EventName, function (e) { TimeOut_Resetter(e) });  
    });

    function LogoutByTimer(){
        console.log('Logout');
        ///////////////////////////////////////////////////
        /// redirect to another page(eg. Login.html) here
        ///////////////////////////////////////////////////
    }

    function TimeOut_Resetter(e){
        console.log(' ' + e);

        /// Stop the pending timeout
        $timeout.cancel(TimeOut_Thread);

        /// Reset the timeout
        TimeOut_Thread = $timeout(function(){ LogoutByTimer() } , TimeOutTimerValue);
    }

})
</script>
