Hey, is there also a torrent link for HHH's content?

@Misanthropic Imperial

@MoonCore why do you have all these old drinks lying around

Yo @Roko - are you familiar with authentication

I’m going to need to learn auth for node with mysql dB

Could you send me some links?

Yes. If you're talking about API authentication, you should make use of JSON webtokens

Yeah, there’s a library called jwt

But what about db auth?

I recommend that you use a framework like Express for your server. It handles things like authentication

Oh cool

Is that db auth?

No

How can I do db auth

Web token for protecting routes right?

What the auth for a database

jwt will generate a web token and then you parse that through to a middle wear that will assess it

You want your backend to directly connect to your DB. Not your clients.

A good way is to set your DB authentication data in environment variables and read those within your backend code

Could you send me a link - I don’t understand that

So there’ll be no need for DB auth if my web token work correctly ?

New drinks aint always good

Ehm..

Al of my knowledge is coming from a 20 min video I saw on the train this morning, so bare with me lol

I’ll be back In one pomodoro

@JDB There's two things.

Authentication for your Node backend

Authentication for your Database

I’m at work

Yeah - cool

So is node backend auth al about web tokens?

The connectiosn go like this: DB -> Backend -> Frontend

-> is an authentication step

Gotya

What do web token auth for

Just the front end?

A web token auth is to check if you're talking to the same user after they login. The authentication can also expire

Weirdest Shit Ive seen today

Gotya
