vstring-express-mongodb v1.0.0

MongoDb data store for use with vstring-express

Stores verification strings in a MongoDB database.

Can be used as a model for developing new stores for use with vstring-express.

Quick Start:

1. Initialize a Mongo store, and use it to initialize Vstring:

const Vstring = require('vstring-express');
const MongoStore = require('vstring-express-mongodb');

const vstring = new Vstring(
    new MongoStore({
        uri: process.env.MONGO_URI,
    })
);

2. Continue using vstring-express as explained in its documentation:

const app = express();

app.get('/vstring/:vstring', vstring.intercept);

const {string, expires} = await vstring.newString({
    action: 'verify-email',
    ttl: 14 * 24 * 60 * 60 * 1000, // 14 days
    email:'someone@example.com'}
});

const link = `http://${host}/vstring/${string}`;

sendEmail({
    to: 'someone@example.com',
    content: `Click: ${link}`,
});

vstring.handle('verify-email', (req, res, next) => {
    const {email} = req.vparams;
    await markVerified(email);
    res.redirect('/email-verified.html');
})
