Bcrypt Password in Mongodb using Node JS
For Bcrypt the password in MongoDB two things are required first I install the npm package Bcrypt JS and use SALT_WORK_FACTOR. In my user model, I define user Schema where the password field is present and the type is a string.
include require package(bcryptjs) and set SALT_WORK_FACTOR.
var userSchema = new mongoose.Schema({ username: { type: String }, hash: { type: String } //the password field });

- Password is not hashing until the document or form is saved
- Mongoose middleware is not invoked on update() operations, So we must use a save() if we want to updated user passwords.
Now use the userSchema.pre() function:
userSchema.pre('save', function(next) { var user = this; // only hash the password if it has been modified or is new if (!user.isModified('hash')) return next(); // generate a salt bcrypt.genSalt(SALT_WORK_FACTOR, function(err, salt) { if (err) return next(err); // hashing the password using our new salt bcrypt.hash(user.hash, salt, function(err, hash) { if (err) return next(err); // override the password with the hashed one user.hash = hash; next(); }); }); }); mongoose.model('user', userSchema);
Conclusion:
This is very important part in NodeJS framework. The above code is developed and tested by me. Please share your review in the comment section. See you on my next blog.
