A ReactJS password recovery box built using the FluentUI library, comprised of two steps:
- password identification step - user provides some sort of identification to kick of the process;
- password change step - user enters a new password, after a password recovery link has been sent to the user's e-mail address.
For the password change step, the LVD-FluentUi-PasswordChangeBox is used, to which all its documented props are forwarded.
Here's a set screenshots of how it all looks like using the default styling:
npm install --save lvd-fluentui-passwordrecoverybox
The demo
directory contains a compiled and ready-to-run example. Just open up the index.html
file.
- For step 1, use
test@email.com
to advance to next step. Any other value will display an error message. - On the second step, enter any password you like.
Handling the first step of the password recovery process:
import React from 'react';
import { PasswordRecoveryBox, PasswordRecoverySteps } from 'lvd-fluentui-passwordrecoverybox';
class PasswordRecoveryBoxStep1SamplePage extends React.Component {
constructor(props) {
super(props);
this._handlePasswordRecoveryInitiationValuesChanged =
this._handlePasswordRecoveryInitiationValuesChanged.bind(this);
this._handlePasswordRecoveryInitiationRequested =
this._handlePasswordRecoveryInitiationRequested.bind(this);
}
_handlePasswordRecoveryInitiationValuesChanged(oldValues, newValues) {
//do something, if desired
}
_handlePasswordRecoveryInitiationRequested(newValues) {
//lookup identification, send recovery link if valid
}
render() {
return (
<PasswordRecoveryBox
step={PasswordRecoverySteps.CollectUserIdentifier}
messageProps={/* use this to display a message after processing */}
onPasswordRecoveryInitiationValuesChanged={this._handlePasswordRecoveryInitiationValuesChanged}
onPasswordRecoveryInitiationRequested={this._handlePasswordRecoveryInitiationRequested}
/>
);
}
}
Handling the second step of the password recovery process:
import React from 'react';
import { PasswordRecoveryBox, PasswordRecoverySteps } from 'lvd-fluentui-passwordrecoverybox';
class PasswordRecoveryBoxStep2SamplePage extends React.Component {
constructor(props) {
super(props);
this._handlePasswordChangeValuesChanged =
this._handlePasswordChangeValuesChanged.bind(this);
this._handlePasswordChangeRequested =
this._handlePasswordChangeRequested.bind(this);
}
_handlePasswordChangeValuesChanged(oldValues, newValues) {
//do something, if desired
}
_handlePasswordChangeRequested(values) {
//validate and change new password
}
render() {
return (
<PasswordRecoveryBox
step={PasswordRecoverySteps.EnterNewPassword}
messageProps={/* use this to display a message after processing */}
onPasswordChangeValuesChanged={this._handlePasswordChangeValuesChanged}
onPasswordChangeRequested={this._handlePasswordChangeRequested}
/>
);
}
}
You can find a full working example here.
You can either directly include the dist/style.css
into your html
web page or use the @import
directive inside your stylesheet if building using webpack:
@import '~lvd-fluentui-passwordrecoverybox/dist/style.css';
Also see the component itself.
To build the demo application:
npm run build-app
To build the library:
npm run build-dist
To build both in one sitting:
npm run build
