secret-server

Secret-server hides your application behind a password

This module will make the application unaccessible until the user enters the correct password

Why?

This module was done with the intent to be used during development stages of an application, in order to be able to demo it to the client but keeping hidden from outsiders.

Installation

npm i secret-server

Usage

import secretServer from 'secret-server'

expressApp.use(cookieSession({
  name: 'session',
  keys: ['key1', 'key2'],
})) // or any other session (express-session for example)
expressApp.use(secretServer(/* configuration object */{
  password: 'test',
  redirect: '/',
  successRedirect: '/success',
})) // this should be done before setting the routes

Please check the tests folder for a more complete working example
