array-bcrypt-user
Store and verify user accounts in an array using bcrypt passwords.
Examples
Create a new user named "foo" with the password "secr3t".
var assert = require('assert');
var User = require('array-bcrypt-user');
var db = [];
User.register(db, 'foo', 'secr3t', function(err, user) {
if (err) { throw err; }
assert.equal(db.length, 1);
});
Check if the password "secr3t" is correct for user "foo".
// same setup as previous example
User.find(db, 'foo', 'bar', function(err, user) {
if (err) { throw err; }
user.verifyPassword('secr3t', function(err, correct) {
if (err) { throw err; }
assert(correct, true);
});
});
Installation
$ npm install array-bcrypt-user
API
User.register(db, username, password, [realm], cb)
- db {Object} array that contains all users
- username {String} the username to use
- password {String} the password to use, at least 6 characters
- [realm] {String, default "_default"} optional realm the user belongs to
- cb {Function} first parameter will be an error or null, second parameter will be the user object or undefined.
Factory method: create a new user with a certain password and save it to the database.
User.find(db, username, [realm], cb)
- db {Object} array that contains all users
- username {String} the username to use
- [realm] {String, default "_default"} optional realm the user belongs to
- cb {Function} first parameter will be an error or null, second parameter will be the user object or undefined.
Factory method: find and return a user from the database.
user.verifyPassword(password, cb)
- password {String} the password to verify
- cb {Function} first parameter will be an error or null, second parameter contains a boolean about whether the password is valid or not.
Verify if the given password is valid.
user.setPassword(password, cb)
- password {String} the password to use
- cb {Function} first parameter will be either an error object or null on success.
Update the password.
Note: the user has to exist in the database.
new User(db, username, [opts])
- db {Object} array containing user objects
- username {String} the name of the user to bind this instance to
- [opts] {Object} object containing optional parameters
opts:
- realm {String, default "_default"} optional realm the user belongs to
- debug {Boolean, default false} whether to do extra console logging or not
- hide {Boolean, default false} whether to suppress errors or not (for testing)
Store and verify user accounts in an array using bcrypt passwords.
Note: don't use new User but one of the factory methods register or find to
construct a new user object.
