I am building a simple app which once the user has registered, will be directed to a login page to again enter their credentials. Once they have done this, they will be taken to the home page. However, this is not happening.
My passport config
passport.use(new localStrategy(
{
usernameField: "email"
},
function(email, password, done) {
db.User
.findOne({where: {email: email}})
.then((dbUser) => {
if(!dbUser) {
return done (null, false, {
message: "We couldn't find that email"
});
}
else if (!dbUser.validPassword(password)) {
return done (null, false, {
message: "Password incorrect"
});
}
return done(null, dbUser);
});
}
));
passport.serializeUser(function(user, done) {
done(null, user.id);
});
passport.deserializeUser(function(id, done) {
db.User.findById(id, function(err, user) {
if (err) {return done(err)}
done(null, user);
});
});
module.exports = passport;
My model
module.exports = (sequelize, DataTypes) => {
const User = sequelize.define('User', {
firstname: DataTypes.STRING,
lastName: DataTypes.STRING,
email: DataTypes.STRING,
password: DataTypes.STRING
}, {});
User.prototype.validPassword = function(password){
return bcrypt.compareSync(password, this.password);
};
User.addHook("beforeCreate", function(user) {
user.password = bcrypt.hashSync(user.password, bcrypt.genSaltSync(10), null);
});
return User;
};
The login page route
module.exports = function(app) {
app.get('/login', (req, res, next) => {
console.log(req.user);
if (req.user) {
res.redirect('/home');
}
res.sendFile(path.join(__dirname, "../views/login.html"))
});
app.post('/login',
passport.authenticate('local', {
failureRedirect: '/registration',
failureFlash: true
}),
function(req, res) {
console.log(req.user);
res.redirect('/home')
}
);
};
The homepage route
module.exports = function(app) {
app.get('/', (req, res) => {
res.redirect('/home');
})
app.get('/home', isAuthenticated, function(req, res) {
res.sendFile(path.join(__dirname, "../views/index.html"))
});
app.get('/logout', (req, res) => {
req.logout();
req.session.destroy();
return res.redirect("/login");
})
};
isAuthenticated.js
module.exports = function(req, res, next) {
if(req.isAuthenticated()) {
return next();
}
return res.redirect("/login");
}
app.js file
app.use(logger('dev'));
app.use(express.json());
app.use(express.urlencoded({ extended: false }));
app.use(cookieParser());
app.use(express.static('public'));
app.use(session({secret: "guineapigs"}));
app.use(passport.initialize());
app.use(passport.session());
require('./routes/index')(app);
require('./routes/registration')(app);
require('./routes/login')(app);
app.listen(PORT, function(err) {
if (err) throw err;
console.log("Magic is happening at http://localhost:"+ PORT);
})
I can see that the user name, email and hashed password is in the database.
However, when I try to enter an email and password which is already in the database, I get redirected to the login page with the word 'error' on it. And I get this in the terminal:
POST /login 500 19.576 ms - 5
Passport itself is not logging any of the messages that I have in the config file. Neither is it processing failureRedirect to the registration page.
I have tried the answers here Just can't get Passport.js to work
..and here Problems getting Passport.js to authenticate user
What am I missing?
