FriendJS

What is it?

FriendJS is a framework to provide user and 'friending' capabilities over a MongoDB database. It includes support for push notifications (only APN, GCM coming soon), email confirmations (via mandrill), admin support, and approvals for user accounts. It also can be run as a standalone server if you're inclined to keep your user information in a separate database.

Usage

var app = express();
//
//  Put your express config stuff here
//

var friendjs = require('friendjs')(settings); // Load the module
friendjs.routes(app); // Apply the friend routes to your app

This will set up your app with all of the routes necessary to make users, friending, and the rest.
