Does not work if buffer: false is used on flatiron.plugins.http

[vanthome]

Hi, a great module!
I'm currently using it and spent 2h finding out, why it would not work in my project.
Result was that if union is configured to not buffer using the option buffer: false,
then the module is not working.
Maybe this is worth mentioning it in the docs.

Hi vanthome

I encountered the same and I guess you need to have buffer: false because of file uploads? Anyway, you can make it work by add {stream: true} to the route function. Like this:

app.router.post('/login', {stream: true},
    fipassport.authenticate('local', {
      successRedirect: '/login-success',
      failureRedirect: '/login-error'
    })
);

Yes, should probably be mentioned.

Hi Adrian,
unfortunately, I cannot confirm this. It only works if "buffering: true" is set on the app;
independently of the stream property you proposed.

Hi Thomas

Please feel free to have a look at https://github.com/ichbinadrian/raum. It's far from finished, but the login process works fine on my side. Maybe you can compare the settings. Of interest might be app.js and lib/plugins/auth.js.
