NodeBB Appcelerator SSO

NodeBB Plugin that allows users to login/register via their Appcelerator account using the AppC Passport strategy.

Pre-requisites for development

NodeBB needs to run under the same primary domain as the Dashboard for SSO.

1. Generate self-signed keys:

    $ openssl req -x509 -nodes -days 365 -newkey rsa:2048 -keyout keys/local.key -out keys/local.crt

2. Edit NodeBB's config.js to use SSL:

    {
      "url": "https://nodebb.appcelerator.com:8443",
      // ..
      "port": 8443,
      "ssl": {
        "key": "keys/local.key",
        "cert": "keys/local.crt"
      }
    }

3. Edit your /etc/hosts:

    127.0.0.1       nodebb.appcelerator.com

Installation

1. Add the NPM package to your NodeBB install

    $ npm install nodebb-plugin-appc --save

2. Activate the plugin via the NodeBB admin
