Authentication & Authorization for AngularJs

Copyright (C) 2014, Shai Reznik

If you ever needed to handle Authentication (login, logout) in your application or manage state transition or view rendering according to the user's role or permissions (Authorization), this lib for you.

This library is built on top the angular-ui-router project, so you can control state transitions by the user's authorization configuration, and uses angular-cache project for saving to localStorage by default.

Inspired by a good friend - Asaf David.

When a function is about to return a promise, its name will end with "ing" to give a hint that you should expect a rpomise.

For example: ngSecured.loggingIn()

angular.module("sampleApp").config(["$ngSecuredProvider", "ngSecured.cacheOptions", 
                                    function($ngSecuredProvider, cacheOptions) {

  $ngSecuredProvider.secure({
    loginState: "app.login",
    postLoginState: "app.afterLogin",
    postLogoutState: "home",
    unAuthorizedState: "app.unAuthorized",
    login: function(credentials){
      return $http.post(credentials);
    }, 
    fetchingRoles: function(rolesService){
      return rolesService.getRoles();
    },
    isAuthenticated: function(userService){
     return userService.isLoggedIn(); 
    },
    cache:{
      timeout: cacheOptions.timeout.FOREVER,
      location: cacheOptions.location.LOCAL_STORAGE
    }
    
    
  });

});

pass this function the username/password you want to transfer forward to ngSecuredProvider.login(credentials)

  ngSecured.loggingIn({username: "john", password: "1234"})
