I am very new to MEAN.io
Below Function(authDN) written & which is working fine on running alone like below.
when I run the function directly I am getting proper response in the console
authDN('myuserName', 'myPassword', output);
But I wanted to run the function with router.post and run the function (authDN) , So whenever POST call is made I wanted to show the response based on the response returned by authDN
,And I wanted to pass the userNT
, password
from the postData
function to the authDN
as well
Can someone help me to approach this
var express = require('express');
var router = express.Router();
var ldap = require('ldapjs');
var bodyParser = require('body-parser');
var userNT;
var password;
var app = express();
function authDN(dn, password, cb) {
var client = ldap.createClient({ url: 'ldap://localhost:389' });
client.bind(dn, password, function (err) {
client.unbind();
cb(err === null, err);
});
}
function output(res, err) {
if (res) {
console.log('success');
} else {
console.log('failure');
}
}
app.use(bodyParser.json()); // support json encoded bodies
app.use(bodyParser.urlencoded({ extended: false })); // support encoded bodies
router.post('/login', postData, authDN(userNT, password, output));
function postData(req, res) {
userNT = req.body.ntid;
password = req.body.password
};
module.exports = router;
router.post('/login', postData);
function postData(req, res) {
userNT = req.body.ntid;
password = req.body.password;
authDN(userNT, password, output,res); //send res also
};
function authDN(dn, password, cb,res) {
var client = ldap.createClient({ url: 'ldap://localhost:389' });
client.bind(dn, password, function (err) {
client.unbind();
cb(err === null, err,res); //pass res to callback
});
}
function output(fake_res, err, res) {
if (fake_res) {
console.log('success');
res.send('success') //here
} else {
console.log('failure');
res.send('failure') //here
}
}
