node js login and registration
To create a login and registration system in Node.js, you can follow these steps:
- Set up a Node.js project with Express framework.
- Install necessary dependencies such as express, body-parser, and mongoose.
- Create a user model with required fields like username, email, and password using Mongoose.
- Set up routes for user registration and login using Express Router.
- Implement user registration functionality, including validating input, hashing the password, and saving the user to the database.
- Implement user login functionality, including verifying the user's credentials and generating a session or token for authentication.
- Use middleware to protect routes that require authentication, ensuring that only logged-in users can access them.
- Test the login and registration functionality using tools like Postman or a web browser.
