Entryway

This project provides a node module that allows you to manage user authentication data to a variety of backend repositories via a provider/plugin design. Currently there is support for persisting data to both DocumentDB and DynamoDB.

##Installation ###Core Module

This module can be installed as follows:

npm install entryway-documentdb

In addition you will need to install an existing Entryway provider module or create your own.

##Usage

Once your provider has been configured correctly you can start utilizing Entryway as follows:

var id = '';
var UserSchema = require('entryway').UserSchema;
var provider = require('entryway-documentdb');
var user = new UserSchema(provider);
user.userHandle = 'testuser';
user.fullName = 'Test User';
user.location = 'Denver, CO';
user.avatar = 'http://www.myavatarurl.com';
user.bio = 'A test user from a long line of test users...';
user.addLocalStrategy('testuser', 'PASSWORD1!', function(err, results){
	if (err) throw err;
	user.save(function(errSave, saveResults){
		if (errSave) throw errSave;
		id = user.id;		//unique id generated by provider
	});
});

Entryway also supports the concept of multiple tenants. In order to utilize this feature all you need to do is set the 'tenant' property off of the UserSchema.
