voyager-auth: A CSS repository from Chris Courses

About Voyager

Voyager is a Node and SQL based web application framework that provides everything you need to produce robust, scalable, database-driven web apps, including:

Built-in user authentication (opt-in)
Simplistic database migrations (Knex)
Easy-to-use ORM (Sequelize)
Clean, full-featured layout templating (Handlebars)
Robust front-end build system (Webpack)
Modern ES6 syntax

Built on top of Express, and modeled after Rails and Laravel, Voyager provides a complete solution to getting up and running with a user-based app as quickly as possible.

Getting Started

Download the Voyager command line interface (CLI) with NPM:
```
 npm install -g voyager-cli
```
Create a new Voyager project, with or without auth:
```
  voyager new newApp
```
or
```
  voyager new newApp --auth
```
Notice: You must run the built-in Knex migrations and add a .env file with valid credentials for the auth version to work. Further auth related instructions can be found under Auth Setup below.
Change directory to newApp and start the Voyager server:
```
 cd newApp
 npm run dev
```
Your app should open up automatically at http://localhost:3001 and you should see the Voyager start up page.

Auth Setup

To get started with Voyager's built-in authentication, you must follow a few steps required to connect your app to a database and utilize key functionalities such as email confirmations and password resets.

Create a file called .env in the root of your newly generated Voyager project

Copy the contents of .env.example and paste inside of the newly created .env file:

 DB_HOST=
 DB_USER=
 DB_PASSWORD=
 DB_NAME=

 MAILGUN_KEY=
 MAILGUN_DOMAIN=

Create a MySQL database for your app, grab a Mailgun API key, and insert the corresponding values into the .env file. A finished version will look something like this for a local server:
```
 DB_HOST=localhost
 DB_USER=root
 DB_PASSWORD=root
 DB_NAME=newApp

 MAILGUN_KEY=key-kfvud83k3kf3vbn22k223222
 MAILGUN_DOMAIN=mailgun.yourdomain.com
```
Install knex if you haven't already:
```
 npm install knex -g
```
Run knex migrations:
```
 knex migrate:latest
```
Restart the Voyager server:
```
 npm run dev
```

You should now have a fully functioning app with auth features such as user registration, user login, email confirmation, and password reset functionality. For more information and instruction regarding Voyager auth, check the Chris Courses YouTube channel for Voyager tutorials and more.
