var ( // ErrNotFound abstracts the postgres not found error. ErrNotFound = errors.New("entity not found") // ErrInvalidID occurs when an ID is not in a valid form. ErrInvalidID = errors.New("ID is not in its proper form") // ErrValidateConfirmPassword occurs when password doesn't match ErrValidateConfirmPassword = errors.New("password confirmation failed") // ErrAuthenticationFailure occurs when a user attempts to authenticate but // anything goes wrong.

Functions ¶
func Authenticate ¶
Authenticate finds a user by their email and verifies their password. On success it returns a Claims value representing this user. The claims can be used to generate a token for future authentication.
Types ¶
type NewUser ¶
type NewUser struct { Name string `json:"name"` Email string `json:"email"` Password string `json:"password"` PasswordConfirm string `json:"password_confirm" validate:"eqfield=Password"` }
NewUser contains information needed to create a new User.
type UpdateUser ¶
type UpdateUser struct { Name *string `json:"name"` Email *string `json:"email"` Password *string `json:"password"` PasswordConfirm *string `json:"password_confirm" validate:"omitempty,eqfield=Password"` }
UpdateUser defines what information may be provided to modify an existing User. All fields are optional so clients can send just the fields they want changed. It uses pointer fields so we can differentiate between a field that was not provided and a field that was provided as explicitly blank. Normally we do not want to use pointers to basic types but we make exceptions around marshalling/unmarshalling.
type User ¶
type User struct { ID string `db:"id" json:"id"` Name string `db:"name" json:"name"` Email string `db:"email" json:"email"` PasswordHash []byte `db:"password" json:"-"` DateCreated time.Time `db:"date_created" json:"date_created"` DateUpdated time.Time `db:"date_updated" json:"date_updated"` }
User represents user in database
