passport-parse

A passport strategy for those of you out there using Parse.com and nodejs (passport) for authentication :)

See Authenticate.me Node server for an example of how to use the strategy

how to use

clone this repo and place it in your node_modules folders

git clone https://github.com/malikov/passport-parse

or Install using npm

npm install passport-parse

Include both passport and passport-parse

var passport = require('passport');
var ParseStrategy = require('passport-parse');

Create a new parseStrategy configuration

var parseStrategy = new ParseStrategy({
	parseAppId,
	parseJavascriptKey
});

or you could just load a parse client and pass it in the strategy

var parse = require('parse').Parse;
parse.initialize(config.parse.appId,config.parse.jsKey);

var parseStrategy = new ParseStrategy({parseClient: parse});

Then add the strategy to passport

passport.use(parseStrategy);

And authenticate the user like so :

passport.authenticate('parse',function(err, user, info) {
    if (err) {
    	return res.status(400).json({payload : {error: info}, message : info.message});
 	}

	if (!user) { 
	   	return res.status(400).json({payload : {error: info}, message : info.message});
	}

	req.logIn(user, function(err) {
		   	if (err) {
		   		return res.status(400).json({payload : {error: err}, message : info.message});
			}
		 		
			return res.json({
		   		payload : req.user,
		   		message : "Authentication successfull"
		   	});
		});
	})(req,res);
