So I am trying to integrate Next-Auth into my project to create a members area plus staff portal for our site.
I have noticed that I can do a credential that would allow me to use the username and passwords already in the database - however I can't seem to find the documentation on a signup page for credentials logins as we want to accept new members/staff to register.
What I have found is the following:
import CredentialsProvider from `next-auth/providers/credentials`
...
providers: [
CredentialsProvider({
// The name to display on the sign in form (e.g. 'Sign in with...')
name: 'Credentials',
// The credentials is used to generate a suitable form on the sign in page.
// You can specify whatever fields you are expecting to be submitted.
// e.g. domain, username, password, 2FA token, etc.
// You can pass any HTML attribute to the <input> tag through the object.
credentials: {
username: { label: "Username", type: "text", placeholder: "jsmith" },
password: { label: "Password", type: "password" }
},
async authorize(credentials, req) {
// You need to provide your own logic here that takes the credentials
// submitted and returns either a object representing a user or value
// that is false/null if the credentials are invalid.
// e.g. return { id: 1, name: 'J Smith', email: 'jsmith@example.com' }
// You can also use the `req` object to obtain additional parameters
// (i.e., the request IP address)
const res = await fetch("/your/endpoint", {
method: 'POST',
body: JSON.stringify(credentials),
headers: { "Content-Type": "application/json" }
})
const user = await res.json()
// If no error and we have user data, return it
if (res.ok && user) {
return user
}
// Return null if user data could not be retrieved
return null
}
})
]
...
However I don't see how this will allow signup feature.
