Kane Internal User Data

This Koa middleware will retrieve the user data from headers and add it in the ctx.state object.

Requirements

You need to execute node version 8 at least (async/await).

Installation

# npm 
npm install --save kane-internal-user-data
# yarn 
yarn add kane-internal-user-data

Usage

This package will try to re-assemble the user data from headers (starting with x-user-*) and add the resulting object to ctx.state.

const Koa = require("koa");
const extractUserData = require("kane-internal-user-data");
 
const app = new Koa();
 
app
.use(extractUserData())
.use(ctx => {
    /**
     * If succeeded, the following User properties will be retrieved
     *
     * @typedef {Object} user
     * @property {String} id
     * @property {String} firstName
     * @property {String} lastName
     * @property {String} userName
     * @property {String} email
     * @property {Array.<Number>} roles
     * @property {Array.<String>} permissions
     * @property {Date} createdAt
     * @property {Date} updatedAt
     */
    if (ctx.state.user.firstName === "foo") {
        // do stuff
    }
});
