Diet: Accounts (in development)

User account management is a general function that we reuse in every application. Accounts is a simple set of API's that you can use as a standard in all your apps.

With Accounts you can interact with user accounts without touching the backend unless you want to do something more.

Install

If you are using diet it's already installed.

npm install diet-accounts

Example Setup

// CREATE a new dietjs application
var app = new Application(options);
 
// SETUP account module
var account = app.accounts({
    table		 : 'users',	   // mysql table
    username      : 'username',	// username column in table
    password	  : 'password',	// password column in table
    select		: '*'	 	   // what to select if user authentication is successfull
});

API

You can interact with your Accounts trough these urls on your website:

METHOD	URL	STATUS
POST	/account/login	working
POST	/account/logout	working
POST	/account/update	beta
POST	/account/changePassword	beta
POST	/account/delete	beta
POST	/account/signup	beta
POST	/account/verify	beta
GET	/account/recover/password	beta
POST	/account/recover/password	beta

Default Response from the API's

If the call ends with success then:

{ success: true, errors: false }

If the call fails then:

{ success: false, errors:[Array of Errors] }

Customizing the API's

All account actions are accesible via the Accounts API but you can add custom middleware functions too.

// Custom Login
account.login(function(request, response, mysql){
    // do some custom stuff
    response.end();
    mysql.end();
});
 
// Custom Logout
account.logout(function(request, response, mysql){
    // do some custom stuff
    response.end();
    mysql.end();
});
