Passport-based User Authentication system for Sails.js applications.
1. Install
$ npm install @inspire-platform/sails-hook-auth --save
This will install @inspire-platform/sails-hook-auth
as a Sails Hook.
2. Configure
config/passport.js
By default, the local
and basic
strategies are enabled. See
config/passport.js
for examples of how to add and configure additional authentication strategies.
config/auth.js
bcrypt: {
/**
* Specifiy number of salt rounds to perform on password. Values >10 are
* slow.
*/
rounds: 8
}
3. Authenticate!
Create users as you normally would (POST
to /user
). Authenticate using the endpoint of the provider you've chosen.
Local
Authenticate with the local strategy via a POST
to /auth/local
with params
identifier
(email) and password
). This will also create a session. See passport.local for more.
Custom User Lookup
If you have additional Model(s) which contain User data by which you want to lookup local strategy users, you can override the
AuthService.findUser(query, cb)
method.Make sure you execute the callback!
return cb(err, user);
HTTP Basic and Digest
See passport.http.
Additional Passport Strategies
/user/me
Returns User
for this authenticated session.
Permissions
For comprehensive user account control with role-based permissioning, object ownership, and row-level security, see sails-permissions, which uses this project as a dependency.
