passport.authenticate(requireLogin) does not work, when called to http://localhost:8080/api/auth/login shows bad request.

passport.js

var passport = require('passport');
var User = require('../app/models/user');
var config = require('./auth');
var JwtStrategy = require('passport-jwt').Strategy;
var ExtractJwt = require('passport-jwt').ExtractJwt;
var LocalStrategy = require('passport-local').Strategy;
 
var localOptions = {
    usernameField: 'email'
};
 
var localLogin = new LocalStrategy(localOptions, function(email, password, done){
 
    User.findOne({
        email: email
    }, function(err, user){
 
        if(err){
            return done(err);
        }
 
        if(!user){
            return done(null, false, {error: 'Login failed. Please try again.'});
        }
 
        user.comparePassword(password, function(err, isMatch){
 
            if(err){
                return done(err);

Use the below code as your session setup code
//==================
passport.serializeUser(function(user, done) {
done(null, user.id);
});

passport.deserializeUser(function(id, done) {
User.findById(id, function(err, user) {
done(err, user);
});
});
