Authentication Project: Secret Page App Part Two (Sign Up Page)

Sign Up Page

After a complex set up process, finally we can start to write our routes!

Step One: Write register route

We will write our register route which will render to a "register" page. In this page, it will have a simple sign up form.

Step Two: Create Sign up form

We add "register.ejs" in the "views" folder. Then, we create a simple form which the url link will be "/register".

Then, we run the app.js and get the "/register", so we can see the form.

Step Three: Set up body parser

For every form post request, we need to add body parser to make it work.

Step Four: Handle user sign up

Once users sign up, it will lead them to the secret page. Therefore, we need to write a post route. Inside the post route, we add passport authenticate, which will log the user in and store the correct information and run the serialize method. And we specify to use "local" strategy.

I sign up with two user names: chai and tom. Then, I find my username in the mongodb database.

Then, once I sign up, it shows the secret page.

Seven Most Common jQuery Methods Last Part: ADD/REMOVE/TOGGLE CLASS()

Add, remove and toggleClass is also a very common way to manipulate style. .addClass() and .removeClass() I add two class selector in the style tag. Class one is to change text color to be green, and class two is change both text and background color.

My Story: A Mommy Start To Learn Code From Zero

From Google Image I am not a programmer, and I thought I would never become one. Everytime I see someone is coding, I think he or she must be very talent. For me, coding is a very difficult subject to learn. Not only the language has so many rules, but also the logical reasoning behind the language is complex. In my graduated school, I knew many friends who didn't have any coding background, but they are doing programmer or developer jobs now. Some of them went to school to study coding, and some of them learned to code by themselves. Their stories are so impressive. I wasn't ready to learn code until I finished my first Chinese book "留学，我的青春呀!" recently. I always want to be a writer and write my own book. I started writing blog three years ago, and I updated my post two to three times every week. As I enjoyed writing , I started to get some followers, likes, and good comments on my blog. Then, I decided to plan my first book. My First...
