How to access Passport 'done' function from rest of the code while authenticating using pa-CodePudding

I am trying to implement authentication in my API using passport.js with passport_jwt strategy. the code is attached below

const JwtStrategy = require('passport-jwt').Strategy,
    ExtractJwt = require('passport-jwt').ExtractJwt;
const opts = {}
const User = require('../models/user_model')
const dotenv = require('dotenv')

module.exports = function(passport) {
    opts.jwtFromRequest = ExtractJwt.fromAuthHeaderAsBearerToken();
    opts.secretOrKey = process.env.JWT_SECRET;

    passport.use(new JwtStrategy(opts, function(jwt_payload, done) {
        User.findById(jwt_payload._id, function(err, user) {
            if (err) {
                return done(err, false);
            }
            if (user) {
                return done(null, user);
            } else {
                return done(null, false);
            }
        });
    }));
}

here I have passed the user on the done function on successful authentication. For my post routes I used passport.authenticate as a route middleware like below.

app.use('/api/v1/posts', passport.authenticate('jwt', { session : false }), postRoutes)

Now the question is how can I access the user, previously sent on the done function, while creating the post routes? Thank you so much.

CodePudding user response：

You can access user in your postRoutes method as code below:

exports.postRoutes = async (req, res) => {
    console.log('req.user =====>', req.user);
    res.status(200).send({ user: req.user })
};
