Cannot authenticate

[dbkaplun]

Running with DEBUG=feathers-authentication, I can see "feathers-authentication setting up feathers-authentication +0ms" in the CLI output, but I don't see "Got an Authorization token" anywhere (src/index.js:93). Also the params object only has an empty query object, no user property.

Request:

GET /api/streams/1 HTTP/1.1
Host: localhost:4000

With those headers, you should be seeing the message from line 93, unless your services are being used before your auth plugin. Here is a server I have working. Maybe you can compare your server setup and figure out the cause:

var feathers = require('feathers');
var hooks = require('feathers-hooks');
var cors = require('cors');
var bodyParser = require('body-parser');
var mongoose = require('mongoose');
var MongooseService = require('feathers-mongoose');
var feathersAuth = require('feathers-authentication').default;
var dbURI = require('./db');
var app = feathers();

app.configure(feathers.rest())
  .configure(feathers.socketio())
  .configure(hooks())
  .options('*', cors())
  .use(cors())
  .use(bodyParser.json())
  .use(bodyParser.urlencoded({ extended: true }))
  .configure(feathersAuth({
    secret: 'igotasecretivebeenhidingundermyskin',
    loginEndpoint: '/#',
    userEndpoint: '/users',
    usernameField: 'email'
  }))
  .use(feathers.static(__dirname + '/public'));

mongoose.connect(dbURI);
var options = {connection: mongoose.connections[0]};

var db = mongoose.connection;
db.on('error', console.error.bind(console, 'connection error:'));
db.once('open', function () {
  console.log('Mongoose connected to ' + dbURI);
});

/* SERVICES */
app.use('accounts', new MongooseService('Account', require('./services/accounts'), options));
app.use('preferences', new MongooseService('Preference', require('./services/preferences'), options));
app.use('users', new MongooseService('User', require('./services/users'), options));

app.configure(feathers.errors());

var port = process.env.VCAP_APP_PORT || 8080;
app.listen(port, function(){
  console.log('application server listening on port ' + port);
});

You're absolutely right, I was instantiating the service before .configure(feathersAuth()). Nice catch!
