User Session Authentication for your Express Application
npm install express-authenticateUser Session Authentication for your Express Application
Works with Express 3.0.x
npm install git://github.com/RGBboy/express-authenticate.git
Justuse it after you have added session functionality to your application:
`` javascript
var authenticate = require('express-authenticate'),
express = require('express'),
app = express();
app.use(express.cookieParser('miyahamiyahimiyahemiyahoho'));
app.use(express.session({ cookie: { maxAge: 60000 }}));
app.use(authenticate(UserModel));
`
The following middleware should be used by the application before the
Authenticate Component:
* express.cookieParser
* express.session
Express Authenticate requires a User Model to be passed in upon construction.
The User Model needs to implement the following:
#### User.findByEmail(email, function (err, user) {})
The .findByEmail` method takes an email string as an argument and a
callback. The callback should respond with an error or the user.
* Write process helpers for other components to use for integration tests.
* Write example that uses SSL
* Write tests
