Hi I’m trying to make a register route in my page using passport. What I can’t understand is
What passport.authenticate(“local”)(req,res,function(){}) is
I understand passport.authenticate(“local”) is by using local strategy, we judge id/password is right or not. But I have no idea how (req,res, function(){}) after that part works. How can we write like that?
+) “User” in the code is just a model name.
app.post(“/register”, function(req,res){
User.register({username:req.body.username},
req.body.password, function(err,user){
if (err) {
console.log(err);
res.redirect(“/register”);
}else{
passport.authenticate(“local”)(req,res,function(){
res.redirect(“/secrets”);
});
