Supports Hapi 8.0

CouchDB authentication requires validating a AuthSession Cookie. The 'couchdb' scheme takes the following options:

• validateFunc - (required) a user lookup and password validation function with the signature function(username, password, callback) where:
  • AuthSession - the AuthSession cookie received from the client.
  • callback - a callback function with the signature function(err, isValid, credentials) where:
    • err - an internal error.
    • isValid - true if both the username was found and the password matched, otherwise false.
    • credentials - a credentials object passed back to the application in request.auth.credentials. Typically, credentials are only included when isValid is true, but there are cases when the application needs to know who tried to authenticate even when it fails (e.g. with authentication mode 'try').

var validate = function (username, callback) {

    var validate = function(authSession, cb) {
        helpers.API.authCheck(authSession)
          .then(function(user) {
            cb(null, true, user);
          }, function(err) {
            cb(err, false, null);
          });
      };
};

server.pack.register(require('hapi-auth-couchdb'), function (err) {

    server.auth.strategy('simple', 'couchdb', { validateFunc: validate });
    server.route({ method: 'GET', path: '/', config: { auth: 'simple' } });
});
