Log in users to your Express app. The module is part of Lockit.

npm install lockit-login

var Login = require('lockit-login');
var utils = require('lockit-utils');
var config = require('./config.js');

var db = utils.getDatabase(config);
var adapter = require(db.adapter)(config);

var app = express();

// express settings
// ...
// sessions are required - either cookie or some sort of db
app.use(cookieParser());
app.use(cookieSession({
  secret: 'this is my super secret string'
}));

// create new Login instance
var login = new Login(config, adapter);

// use login.router with your app
app.use(login.router);

// listen to events [optional]
login.on('login', function(user, res, target) {
  res.send('Welcome ' + user.name);
})

More about configuration at Lockit.

• two-factor authentication
• track failed log in attempts
• lock account after too many failed login attempts
• track time and ip of log ins
• redirect unauthorized users to /login and save requested url to session
• input validation
• allow login with username and/or email

• GET /login
• POST /login
• POST /login/two-factor
• GET /logout

If you've set exports.rest in your config.js the module behaves as follows.

• all routes have /rest prepended
• GET /rest/login is next()ed and you can catch /login on the client
• POST /rest/login stays the same but sends JSON
• POST /rest/login/two-factor stays the same but sends JSON
• GET /rest/logout sends JSON and you can catch /logout on the client
