Disclaimer: this library is currently preliminary and untested
ember install ember-simple-auth-parse
A (mostly) complete example implementation can be found in the dummy app. Until routeable components are released, the dummy app will have route templates that contain only a single line, rendering a component.
This library depends on ember-parse-adapter and ember-simple-auth to provide simple user authentication for Parse in Ember. You should already be familiar with ember-simple-auth and the parseUser model from ember-parse-adapter to use this library.
This library registers several authenticators to authenticate with Parse. These
can used directly with the authenticate
method, or using the
LoginControllerMixin on controllers or components (see dummy app
for example of using the mixin).
-
parse-username
this.get('session').authenticate('authenticator:parse-username', { identification: '[email protected]', // corresponds to username on Parse password: 'coolpassword' });
-
parse-token: This authenticator is especially useful when you already have the session token (e.g. if you've just created a user)
this.get('session').authenticate('authenticator:parse-token', { sessionToken: 'r:pnktnjyb996sj4p156gjtp4im' });
The supplied authorizer is called parse
and will automatically add the session
token to the appropriate header for ajax requests to the Parse API. To use, you
will need to set the appropriate configuration options in
config/environment.js
.
Note: the cross origin whitelist must include Parse to allow ember-simple-auth to add the headers to the correct requests.
// config/environment.js
var ENV = {
// ...
'simple-auth': {
authorizer: 'authorizer:parse',
crossOriginWhitelist: ['https://api.parse.com']
}
};
This library reopens the ember-simple-auth session object to add a currentUser
property, which is updated any time the session is authenticated. This can be
used in templates if the ApplicationRouteMixin is used, as well as the model of,
say, a route users.current
// app/routes/users/current.js
import Ember from 'ember';
import AuthenticatedRouteMixin from 'simple-auth/mixins/authenticated-route-mixin';
export default Ember.Route.extend(AuthenticatedRouteMixin, {
model: function() {
// an instance of the parseUser model
return this.get('session.currentUser');
}
});
A common use case not covered directly by ember-simple-auth is to authenticate immediately upon sign up. This is relatively straightforward using this library.
var user = this.store.createRecord('parseUser', {
username: '[email protected]',
password: 'coolpassword'
});
user.save().then(function(){
this.get('session').authenticate('authenticator:parse-token', {
sessionToken: user.get('sessionToken')
});
}.bind(this));
