What about security?

I've been digging through articles like this one to find a good backend solution for my front end web app I'm trying to build in ember.js. So far I've found a few solutions like Parse and FireBase but they all seem to have a big flaw when it comes to security, one requires that the keys to access the REST api be embeded in the app.js file and the other is just making post and get requests over to a URL without any sort of authentication. It seem like this is a pretty simple backend to get set up but I'm wondering how it does in terms of security. Can someone just go in and grab the code required to make posts to the mongodb database and potentially perform man in the middle attacks or injections of some sort? My app will be run on an SSL certificate since there is also a payment portion built on top of stripe but I'm not convinced that is going to be enough for this type of security vulnerability.

Can anyone shed some light on this topic for me?

Create unique filenames for the uploads, like record id or some guid

I’m trying to get the upload filenames to be the ‘record-id.jpg’, any idea what would be a good aproach to accomplish that. So instead of just the filename, i would like to tie it more to the created records, and make it unique.

Any help would be very appreciated!

Modular Views Grouping

I would like to arrange the views in a more modular manner by grouping them in folders. Like for users views I'll would like to do public/tpl/accounts/userAddView.html. This way I will place all views related to accounts/users like editing forms, password change etc.

How can we do something like that? Tried to hack code to implement the above but got stuck, I'll appreciate if someone comes to aid.

Thanks.

socket.io.js 404, what am i missing?

I just cloned this repo, and ran it, i keep on getting a 404 for socket.io.js:

GET http://localhost:4000/socket.io/socket.io.js 404 (Not Found)

What am i doing wrong?

Recommendation

Thank you for your work with nodecellar. However, to avoid confusion, shouldn't the routes folder be called controllers since that is what they are. Your routes are stored in the server.js file. I can pull this done and create a simple PR if you'd like.

Please add a license

I'd like to fork nodecellar and adapt it to some other JS libraries (with attribution of course). I don't see a license. I wouldn't proceed to my goal unless the source is covered with a suitable license such as MIT, BSD, or Apache 2. Thanks.
