Basic Auth

Author: Alan Chelko

Problem Domain

* Deploy an Express server that implements Basic Authentication, with signup and signin capabilities, using a Postgres database for storage:
  * Users Model (Postgres Schema)
  * /signup route that creates a user
  * /signin route that attempts to log a user in
  * BasicAuth middleware that validates the user as a part of the /signin process

Testing

* POST to /signup to create a new user
* POST to /signin to login as a user (use basic auth)
* Need tests for auth middleware and the routes

Setup

* PORT: 3001

Deployed server

* Heroku: [chelko-basic-api-server-prod](https://dashboard.heroku.com/apps/chelko-auth-app-prod/)

Running the app

* npm start
* Endpoint: '/'
    * Returns 'Hello, welcome to the World of User Auth!'
* Endpoint: '/signup'
    * POST signup to create an account with username and password
* Endpoint: '/signin'
    * POST to login with existing username and password
*  Enpoint: '/*'
    * Returns object with 'not found' 404 error

Tests

* npm test
