Full Stack Web Development - Lab 5: All Your (Data)Base Are Belong To Us

Full Stack Web Development - Lab 8: Users!

• Update the express function that handles the POST of the registration form to:
  • Create a new User record for the new user.
  • Add the id of the newly created user record to the session in the user_id property.
• Add a new or update the existing app.use function to load the user record for the session, based on the user_id property.
  • Add that user record to request object as the user property.

Some conditions to consider

• What is the proper behavior for the registration page if the user:
  • Already exists
  • Is already logged in

Extra credit?

• Login page! Lookup the user by username:

    User.findOne({ where: { username: 'someUserName' } })
      .then(function(user) { /* ... */ })
  

• Logout page! To remove the existing session (new id/cookie):

    request.session.destroy(function(error) { /* ... */ })
