Drywall.js

A website and user system for Node.js. What you create with Drywall is more important than Drywall.

See a bird's eye view.

Technology

Server = [express, jade, passport, mongoose, emailjs, async]

Client = [bootstrap, backbone.js, jquery]

Test Drive

https://drywall.herokuapp.com/

• username: root
• password: h3r00t

https://drywall.nodejitsu.com/

• username: root
• password: j1ts00t

Note: The apps on Heroku and Nodejitsu have been modified so you cannot change the root user, the root user's linked administrator role or the root admin group. This was done in order to keep the app ready to test at all times.

Installation

1. Clone the repository (or download/unzip) into a directory.
2. Run $ npm install
3. Configure /app.js with mongodb and email credentials.
4. Run app via $ ./run.js

Setup

You need a few records in the database to start using the user system.

Run these commands on mongo. Obviously you should use your email address.

db.admingroups.insert({ _id: 'root', name: 'Root' });
db.admins.insert({ name: {first: 'Root', last: 'Admin', full: 'Root Admin'}, groups: ['root'] });
var rootAdmin = db.admins.findOne();
db.users.save({ username: 'root', isActive: 'yes', email: 'your@email.addy', roles: {admin: rootAdmin._id} });
var rootUser = db.users.findOne();
rootAdmin.user = { id: rootUser._id, name: rootUser.username };
db.admins.save(rootAdmin);

Now just use the reset password feature to set a password.

• http://localhost:3000/login/forgot/
• Submit your email address and wait a second.
• Go check your email and get the reset link.
• http://localhost:3000/login/reset/:token/
• Set a new password.

Login. Customize. Enjoy.
