Introduction

Library for authentication middleware using JWT

Code Samples

Initialize Authilize instance

const router = require("express").Router();
const { postController } = require("../controllers/controller");

const { isAuth, isAuthPass } = require("Authilize");

// POST
router.post("/", isAuth, postController);
router.post("/", isAuthPass, postController);

module.exports = router;

Controller example

exports.postController = async (req, res, next) => {
  const { username, email } = req.decodedData // Get your data from req.decodedData.
  return res.status(200).json({ message: "successful" });
};

You can customize it as you like if not then the status code will be 401 by default and error message will be "Unauthorized Access" .env (VARIABLES MUST BE THE SAME)

AUTHILIZE_JWT_SECRET_KEY = Fdjjfklsdjfklasf
AUTHILIZE_STATUS_CODE = 401
AUTHILIZE_ERR_MESSAGE = Unauthorized Access

If you are using isAuthPass and the token is invalid or not passed in the headers then req.decodedData will be undefined
