Functions

func Authenticate

func Authenticate(ctx context.Context, db *sqlx.DB, now time.Time, email, password string) (auth.Claims, error)

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.

func Delete

func Delete(ctx context.Context, db *sqlx.DB, id string) error

Delete removes a user from the database.

func Update

func Update(ctx context.Context, claims auth.Claims, db *sqlx.DB, id string, upd UpdateUser, now time.Time) error

Update replaces a user document in the database.

Types

type NewUser

type NewUser struct {
	Name            string   `json:"name" validate:"required"`
	Email           string   `json:"email" validate:"required"`
	Roles           []string `json:"roles" validate:"required"`
	Password        string   `json:"password" validate:"required"`
	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"`
	Roles           []string `json:"roles"`
	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:"user_id" json:"id"`
	Name         string         `db:"name" json:"name"`
	Email        string         `db:"email" json:"email"`
	Roles        pq.StringArray `db:"roles" json:"roles"`
	PasswordHash []byte         `db:"password_hash" json:"-"`
	DateCreated  time.Time      `db:"date_created" json:"date_created"`
	DateUpdated  time.Time      `db:"date_updated" json:"date_updated"`
}

User represents someone with access to our system.

func Create

func Create(ctx context.Context, db *sqlx.DB, n NewUser, now time.Time) (*User, error)

Create inserts a new user into the database.

func List

func List(ctx context.Context, db *sqlx.DB) ([]User, error)

List retrieves a list of existing users from the database.

func Retrieve

func Retrieve(ctx context.Context, claims auth.Claims, db *sqlx.DB, id string) (*User, error)

Retrieve gets the specified user from the database.
