Creating a general use authentication package

This project aims to provide a higher level of implementation on top of express and passport. Making the bootstrap of an app with a user system to take as little configuration as possible.

Install and setup

Install the package npm i restful-users and add as an express middleware

app.use(usersSessionsRouter);
app.use(suggestedMiddleware());

Add a .env file at the root of you project and add the following:

• FACEBOOK_APP_ID
• FACEBOOK_APP_SECRET

That's it. now you can access the endpoints
