Update User's "before delete" hook to take into account the case when
the related AccessToken model was not configured in the application
(attached to a datasource).
Before this change, when the test failed, the rejected promise
was not reported back to mocha and triggered "unhandled promise
rejection" warning only.
- Fix `User.prototype.verify` to not modify properties of the supplied
`verifyOptions` argument. This is needed to allow callers to supply
the same options object to multiple calls of `verify`.
- Fix `User.getVerifyOptions` to always return a new copy of the
options object. This is needed to allow callers to modify the
returned options object without affecting the result returned
by subsequent calls of `getVerifyOptions`.
Reword the error message returned when the password is too long
- remove the plaintext password value, it looks very bad
- include information about the maximum allowed length instead
Also add additional context to the error.
This commit adds:
- user.prototype.verify(verifyOptions, options, cb)
- remote method /user/:id/verify
- User.getVerifyOptions()
The remote method can be used to replay the sending of a user
identity/email verification message.
`getVerifyOptions()` can be fully customized programmatically
or partially customized using user model's `.settings.verifyOptions`
`getVerifyOptions()` is called under the hood when calling the
/user/:id/verify remote method
`getVerifyOptions()` can also be used to ease the building
of identity verifyOptions:
```js
var verifyOptions = {
type: 'email',
from: 'noreply@example.com'
template: 'verify.ejs',
redirect: '/',
generateVerificationToken: function (user, options, cb) {
cb('random-token');
}
};
user.verify(verifyOptions);
```
NOTE: the `User.login()` has been modified to return the userId when
failing due to unverified identity/email. This userId can then be used
to call the /user/:id/verify remote method.
Improve the flow for setting/changing/resetting User password to make
it more secure.
1. Modify `User.resetPassword` to create a token scoped to allow
invocation of a single remote method: `User.setPassword`.
2. Scope the method `User.setPassword` so that regular tokens created
by `User.login` are not allowed to execute it.
For backwards compatibility, this new mode (flow) is enabled only
when User model setting `restrictResetPasswordTokenScope` is set to
`true`.
3. Changing the password via `User.prototype.patchAttributes`
(and similar DAO methods) is no longer allowed. Applications
must call `User.changePassword` and ask the user to provide
the current (old) password.
For backwards compatibility, this new mode (flow) is enabled only
when User model setting `rejectPasswordChangesViaPatchOrReplace` is set
to `true`.
Implement a new method for changing user password with password-reset
token but without the old password.
REST API
POST /api/users/reset-password
Authorization: your-password-reset-token-id
Content-Type: application/json
{"newPassword": "new-pass"}
JavaScript API
User.setPassword(userId, newPassword[, cb])
userInstance.setPassword(newPassword[, cb])
Note: the new REST endpoint is not protected by scopes yet, therefore
any valid access token can invoke it (similarly to how any valid access
token can change the password via PATCH /api/users/:id).
Define a new property `AccessToken.scopes` to contain the list of
scopes granted to this access token.
Define a new remote method metadata `accessScopes` to contain a list
of scope name required by this method.
Define a special built-in scope name "DEFAULT" that's used when
a method/token does not provide any scopes. This allows access
tokens to grant access to both the default scope and any additional
custom scopes at the same time.
Modify the authorization algorithm to ensure that at least one
of the scopes required by a remote method is allowed by the scopes
granted to the requesting access token.
The "DEFAULT" scope preserve backwards compatibility because existing
remote methods with no `accessScopes` can be accessed by (existing)
access tokens with no `scopes` defined.
Impact on existing applications:
- Database schema must be updated after upgrading the loopback version
- If the application was already using a custom `AccessToken.scopes`
property with a type different from an array, then the relevant code
must be updated to work with the new type "array of strings".
Implement a new method for changing user passwords the secure way.
The method requires the old password to be provided before a new
password can be used.
REST API:
POST /api/users/change-password
Authorization: your-token-id
Content-Type: application/json
{"oldPassword":"old-pass", "newPassword": "new-pass"}
JavaScript API:
User.changePassword(userId, oldPassword, newPassword[, cb])
There is also an instance-level (prototype) method that can be used
from JavaScript:
userInstance.changePassword(oldPassword, newPassword[, cb])
Applications using MongoDB connectors typically have `user.id`
property of type ObjectID.
This commit fixes the code building the verification URL to
correctly convert the user id value into string.
Enhance User.prototype.verify to pass the generated token
to the templating function in addition to other existing properties.
This allows application to build multiple URLs in the email template,
for example in order to provide a different URL for desktop and
mobile browsers.
Modify `app.enableAuth()` to verify that (custom) User and AccessToken
models have correctly configured their hasMany/belongsTo relations
and print a warning otherwise.
Fix the code invalidating access tokens on user email/password changes
to correctly handle the case when the relation
"AccessToken belongs to (subclassed) user" is not configured.
Fix User.prototype.verify to call `querystring.stringify` instead
of concatenating query-string components directly.
In particular, this fixes the bug where `options.redirect` containing
a hash fragment like `#/home?arg1=value1&arg2=value2` produced incorrect
URL, because the `redirect` value was not correctly encoded.
Allow LoopBack applications to configure multiple User models and share
the same AccessToken model.
To enable this feature:
1) In your custom AccessToken model:
- add a new property "principalType" of type "string".
- configure the relation "belongsTo user" as polymorphic,
using "principalType" as the discriminator
2) In your User models:
- Configure the "hasMany accessTokens" relation as polymorphic,
using "principalType" as the discriminator
When creating custom Role and Principal instances, set your
User model's name as the value of "prinicipalType".
Return 401 when the request does not provide any accessToken argument
or the token was not found.
Also simplify the implementation of the `logout` method to make only
a single database call (`deleteById`) instead of `findById` + `delete`.
Fix User model to preserve the current session (provided via
"options.accessToken") when invalidating access tokens after a change
of email or password property.
Yesterday, the loopback we are using in our system was upgraded
via npm, and since the upgrade, we noticed that every time
the user model updates, the emailVerified column would change to false.
I took a look and realized there might be an error in
https://github.com/strongloop/loopback/commit/eb640d8
The intent of the commit just mention is to make emailVerified false
when the email gets changed, but notice that ctx.data.email is null
on updates, so the condition is always met and emailVerified always
becomes false.
This commit fixes the issue just mentioned.
Notable side-effects:
- loopback no longer exports "caller" and "arguments" properties
- kv-memory connector is now properly added to the connector registry
- the file "test/support.js" was finally removed
