};
var aclManger = require('jwt-acl-manager')('password',options,acl,permissionDef);
var express = require('express');
var app = express();
app.use(aclManger.accessController()); //add as middleware


//protected route
app.get('/category', function (req, resp) {
    resp.send({ id: new Date().getTime(), message: "category access" },200);
});

Note

make sure token is generated using aclManger

app.post('/login', function (req, resp) {
    var user = req.body;
    ...
    //do other validations
    ...
    var payLoad = {
        sub: u.userId,
        loggedInAs: u.permission
    }
    aclManger.generateToken(payLoad).then(function (token) {
        resp.send({ userId: u.userId, token: token });
    }).catch(function (e) {
        resp.status(500).send(e);

    });
});
