Authentication

Implements Authentication with BCrypt & JavaScript Web Token

// config

const JwtStrategy = require("passport-jwt").Strategy;
const ExtractJwt = require("passport-jwt").ExtractJwt;
const mongoose = require("mongoose");
const User = mongoose.model("users");
const keys = require("./keys");

const options = {};
options.jwtFromRequest = ExtractJwt.fromAuthHeaderAsBearerToken();
options.secretOrKey = keys.secretOrKey;

module.exports = passport => {
  passport.use(
    new JwtStrategy(options, (jwt_payload, done) => {
      done();
    })
  );
};

AWS

Setting up aws and multer configuration for aws file storage.

const aws = require("aws-sdk");
const multer = require("multer");
const multerS3 = require("multer-s3");
const ACCESS_KEY = require("../config/keys").AWS_ACCESS_KEY;
const SECRET_ACCESS_KEY = require("../config/keys").AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY;

aws.config.update({
  secretAccessKey: SECRET_ACCESS_KEY,
  accessKeyId: ACCESS_KEY,
  region: "us-east-2"
});
var s3 = new aws.S3();

const fileFilter = (req, file, cb) => {
  if (
    file.mimetype === "audio/mp3" ||
    file.mimetype === "audio/wav" ||
    file.mimetype === "audio/flac"
  ) {
    cb(null, true);
  } else {
    cb(
      new Error(
        "Invalid Mime Type, only MP3, WAV and FLAC allowed" + file.mimetype
      ),
      false
    );
  }
};

var upload = multer({
  fileFilter,
  storage: multerS3({
    s3,
    bucket: "echo-hive-dev",
    acl: "public-read",
    metadata: function(req, file, cb) {
      cb(null, { fieldName: "TESTING_META_DATA" });
    },
    key: function(req, file, cb) {
      cb(null, Date.now().toString());
    }
  })
});

Background

Technologies and Technical Challenges

EchoHive is a minimal viable product that tackles three challenges in application development, software engineering, and user experience.

Primarily built with MERN (MongoDB, Express, React, Node)

MongoDB Models

Users

const UserSchema = new Schema({
  username: {
    type: String,
    required: true
  },
  email: {
    type: String,
    required: true
  },
  password: {
    type: String,
    required: true
  },
  date: {
    type: Date,
    default: Date.now
  }
});

Tracks

const TrackSchema = new Schema({
    user: {
        type: Schema.Types.ObjectId,
        ref: 'users'
    },
    trackname: {
        type: String,
        required: true
    },
    comment_ids: [{
        type: Schema.Types.ObjectId,
        ref: 'comments'
    }],
    src_url: {
        type: String,
        required: true
    },
    date: {
        type: Date,
        default: Date.now
    }
});

Comments

const CommentSchema = new Schema({
  user: {
    type: Schema.Types.ObjectId,
    ref: "users"
  },
  username: {  //added this, still testing
    type: String,
    required: true
  },
  body: {
    type: String,
    required: true
  },
  date: {
    type: Date,
    default: Date.now
  },
  track: {
    type: Schema.Types.ObjectId,
    ref: "tracks"
  }
});

Express

API Routes

/api/users/ - Register / Login users
/api/tracks/ - Tracks CRUD
/api/comments/ - User Comments CRUD

React Store

Frontend React-Redux store layout.

{
    entities: {
        users: {
                0: {
                    id: 0,
                    username: 'string',
                    profile_avatar_url: `path/to/image`
                }
        },
        tracks: {
            0: {
                id: 0,
                artist_id: 1,
                comment_id: [1,2,3],
                name: 'string',
            }
        },
        comments: {
            0 : {
                id: 0,
                track_id: 1,
                author_id: 0,
                body: 'string'
            }
        }
    },
    errors: {
        session: [],
        profile: []
    },
    session: {
        userId: 0
    }
}

Setup

Create a new dev_keys.js in config/

module.exports = {
    mongoURI: "<MONGODB_URL>",
  secretOrKey: "<KEY>",
  AWS_ACCESS_KEY: "<AWS_KEY>",
  AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY: "<AWS_SECRET_KEY>"
  }

Running local dev

$ npm install && npm install --prefix frontend
$ npm run dev
