- Remove flags and properly finish the stream.
- Destroy emits an end event for compability with ending of
ReadableStream now.
- Check for default implementation of destroy() method,
because in Node.js 8 all types of streams have a native one.
1. Make it possible to reuse getIdForRequest()
2. Introduce a flag to control if oAuth2 bearer token should be base64
encoded
3. Promote resolve() to locate/validate access tokens by id
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).
Fix the code builing a scoped method to correctly handle the case
when the setup method is called twice and the previously defined
method has to be overriden with new remoting metadata.
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".
Currently any `currentUserLiteral` routes when accessed with a bad
token throw a 500 due to a SQL error that is raised because
`Model.findById` is invoked with `id={currentUserLiteral}`
(`id=me` in our case) when the url rewrite fails.
This commit changes the token middleware to return 401 Not Authorized
when the client is requesting a currentUserLiteral route without
a valid access token.

Emit a new method "remoteMethodAdded" whenever a new method is added,
typically when `Model.remoteMethod` or `Model.nestRemoting` is called.
The method is emitted both by the Model affected and the application
object.
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])
