So continuing with yesterday I started with User and password Authentication in the Backend

Using a lot of packages to make a professional product application

• Bcrypt - To encrypt the details into hash (Password)

• JsonWebToken - So the user can directly log in after registration

• Validator - for validations

• nodemailor - Auth for forgot password

• cookie-parser - for cookies

---

Made a new collection in postman to test the Register and it works pretty well as you can see the password is getting encrypted.

---

Users collection is also added in the Mongodb

---

This is the current structure of my project where today I added userModel, controller and Routes i.e defined what parameters the user will take etc.

Here's the example of userSchema

name:{
        type:String,
        required:[true,"Please Enter your name"],
        maxLength:[30,"Name cannot exceed 30 characters"],
        minLength:[3,"Name should have more than 4 characters"]
    },
    email:{
        type:String,
        required:[true,"Please Enter your Email"],
        unique:true,
        validate:[validator.isEmail,"Please enter a valid email"]
    },
    password:{
        type:String,
        required:[true,"Please Enter your password"],
        minLength:[8,"Password should be greater than 4 characters"],
        //when used find method it will give everything except password
        select:false,

    },

Concluding today's progress had a productive session overall, haven't finished the whole user authentication-related stuff yet so tomorrow I'll continue.
