Phauxth v0.14.0 Phauxth.Login View Source
Module to handle login.
Phauxth.Login.verify/3
checks the user’s password, and returns
{:ok, user} if login is successful or {:error, message} if there
is an error.
If login is successful, you need to either add the user to the
session, by running put_session(conn, :user_id, id)
, or send
an api token to the user.
Options
There is one option for the verify function:
crypto - the password hashing algorithm to use
- the default is Comeonin.Bcrypt
The check_pass function also has options. See the documentation for the password hashing module you are using for details.
Examples
In the example below, Phauxth.Login.verify is called within the create function in the session controller.
def create(conn, %{"session" => params}) do
case Phauxth.Login.verify(params, MyApp.Accounts) do
{:ok, user} -> handle_successful_login
{:error, message} -> handle_error
end
end
