Linting & Formatting

This repo has pre-commit hooks to run linting formatting and package auditing checks

To manually run them you can do:

npm run prettier

npm audit

Endpoints

POST /login

Requires the following body:

{ username: 'username', password: 'password' }

Usernames and passwords are hardcoded for this example, they are:

{
  jeff1967: 'hotdog',
  suefrank1234: 'lightbulb',
}

GET /verifyToken

This endpoint is added for convenience - usually the JWT would be checked on each service with the service knowing the AUTH_SECRET

This endpoint requires an Authorization header including the JWT

If this route returns a 200 OK the token is valid and you can proceed with executing authenticated behaviour
