Ah! I can't find a Log out button!

My friend logged in to my computer, and now I can't log out. Is this intentional? If not, where could I find the log out? Thanks!

If you delete your cookies, it will log you out. Other than that, I don't see a logout button either.

[stolksdorf]

Yeah that was an oversight on my end. There's a logout button here. There will be a logout button on the userpage in v3.

Will the login be fixed for local copies?

[stolksdorf]

Yup, I've build an entire self-contained login system for v3 for development/local versions of the project.

Has anyone been able to find stolksdorf's self-contained login system for local installs? Or do we just go ahead and start from scratch?

@G-Ambatte the log out button does not rely on an offline login system to work. We can literally just copy the code from the logout button from Naturalcrit.com/login. All it does is wipe the cookie that stores the current user session.

Getting the self-contained login for local installs is a separate issue, in #269, and the code for that is in Stolksdorf's old V3 branch.

Recording this so it is easily found for future reference:

From stolksdorf's v3 branch:-
I believe that this the login code: https://github.com/stolksdorf/homebrewery/blob/v3/server/dev.routes.js
This seems to be where a JWT token is generated for local use, although it doesn't seem to have any authentication check. Whether there should be a password authentication required for purely local use is another question entirely.

Logout is here: https://github.com/stolksdorf/homebrewery/blob/v3/shared/homebrewery/account.actions.js
The cookies are reset for both NaturalCrit.com and local use; I'm not certain that this is desirable behaviour.

It shouldn't be difficult to wrap these into a module and only load the functions when process.env.NODE_ENV != 'production'.
