A Fake REST API using json-server with JWT authentication.

Implemented End-points: login,register

Install

$ npm install
$ npm run start-auth

Might need to run

npm audit fix

How to login/register?

You can login/register by sending a POST request to

POST http://localhost:8000/auth/login
POST http://localhost:8000/auth/register

with the following data

{
  "email": "[email protected]",
  "password":"nilson"
}

You should receive an access token with the following format

{
   "access_token": "<ACCESS_TOKEN>"
}

You should send this authorization with any request to the protected endpoints

Authorization: Bearer <ACCESS_TOKEN>

Usage:

Login:

  let userToken = null;
  axios.post('http://localhost:8000/auth/login',{
    "email": "[email protected]",
    "password":"nilson"
  }).then(function (response) {
    console.log (response.data);
    userToken = response.data.access_token;
  }).catch(function (error) {
    console.log(error);
  });

Read:

  const config = {
     headers: {
        Authorization: "Bearer " + userToken
     }
  };
  axios.get('http://localhost:8000/products',config)
  .then(function (response) {
    console.log (response.data);
  }).catch(function (error) {
    console.log(error);
  });
