Archive repository for the legacy AirCamp web application. For a more modern version of AirCamp on the latest framework and deployment, see the aircamp repository.

Legacy notes: migrated to this repository due to the increased volume of files in the bootcamp repository. This AirCamp (previously YelpCamp) application deployment series will be based on YelpCamp v12 (deployed). For more details and documentation please visit the linked YelpCamp v12 (deployed) repository mentioned previously. General updates from each iteration of AirCamp will be appended to this document. This website uses Heroku and mLab cloud database for hosting.

In deployed v7 of this application we will be adding a password reset option for users. The steps are as follows:

• Run npm i -S async nodemailer in the terminal (crypto is already part of express)
• Require async, nodemailer, and crypto into index.js route
• Create a GET and POST route for the forgot password page
• Ensure that a legitimate email and pass is passed into process.env.GMAILPW (export GMAILPW to .env) for the post route

• Ensure that username and email is unique by updating the user model
• Add a reset password token as well as reset password time-to-expiration limit to the user model
• Create a GET and POST route for the reset password token page

The contact page to allow users to contact the campground owner. Passport will now redirect to the last page that was requested after user logs on.
