sails-auth
Passport-based User Authentication system for Sails.js applications.
1. Install
$ npm install sails-auth --save
This will install sails-auth as a Sails Hook. The Hook uses
marlinspike to inject the relevant
Controllers, Policies, etc into your Sails application.
2. Configure
config/passport.js
By default, the local and basic strategies are enabled. See
config/passport.js
for examples of how to add and configure additional authentication strategies.
config/auth.js
bcrypt: {
/**
* Specifiy number of salt rounds to perform on password. Values >10 are
* slow.
*/
rounds: 8
}
3. Authenticate!
Create users as you normally would (POST to /user). Authenticate using the endpoint of the provider you've chosen.
Local
Authenticate with the local strategy via a POST to /auth/local with params
identifier (email) and password). This will also create a session. See passport.local for more.
HTTP Basic and Digest
See passport.http.
Additional Passport Strategies
/user/me
Returns User for this authenticated session.
Permissions
For comprehensive user account control with role-based permissioning, object ownership, and row-level security, see sails-permissions, which uses this project as a dependency.
