    <p>I'm rather new to Node.js and Express. I'm trying to finish the configuration of everyauth with Twitter and I'm trying to access the 'res.user' on the server side which according to the documentation of everyauth requires that .findByUserId gets configured. That's where I'm having my trouble. How do you configure findByUserId?</p> <p>Here's what I got. It's currently working to create a new user or log them in, I haven't setup the .findByUserId correctly yet giving me access to req.user which I need on the server side. If you have other suggestions on how to optimize this code, please let me know too since I'm just learning.</p> <p>Code edited below...</p> <p>App.js</p> <pre><code>var express = require('express') , everyauth = require('everyauth') , util = require('util') , Promise = everyauth.Promise , users = require('./lib/users') , config = require('./config.js') , twitter = require('./lib/twitter') , games = require('./lib/games') everyauth.twitter .consumerKey(config.twitter.consumerKey) .consumerSecret(config.twitter.consumerSecret) .findOrCreateUser( function (session, accessToken, accessTokenSecret, twitterUserMetadata) { var promise = this.Promise(); users.findOrCreateUserbyTwitterData(twitterUserMetadata, accessToken, accessTokenSecret, promise) return promise; }) .redirectPath('/'); everyauth.everymodule.findUserById(function (userId, callback) { users.findById(userId, callback); }); var app = module.exports = express.createServer(); everyauth.helpExpress(app); // Configuration app.configure(function(){ app.set('views', __dirname + '/views'); app.use(express.bodyParser()); app.use(express.methodOverride()); app.use(express.cookieParser()); app.use(express.session({secret: "FxT10477A93d54HJx5"})); app.use(everyauth.middleware()); app.set('view engine', 'jade'); app.use(express.static(__dirname + '/public')); }); app.configure('development', function(){ app.use(express.errorHandler({ dumpExceptions: true, showStack: true })); }); app.configure('production', function(){ app.use(express.errorHandler()); }); // Routes app.get('/', function(req, res){ console.log(req.user); res.render('index', { title: 'Zeitheist 2' }); }); </code></pre> <p>Users.js </p> <pre><code>var twitter = require(__dirname + "/twitter"); var mongoose = require('mongoose'); var Schema = mongoose.Schema , ObjectId = Schema.ObjectId; var userSchema = new Schema({ user : ObjectId , id : Number , twitterId : Number , twitterName : String , profileImageUrl : String , name : String , dateCreated : Date , session : String , accessToken : String , accessTokenSecret : String }); var conn = mongoose.createConnection('mongodb://localhost/zeitheist2_test'); var userModel = conn.model('User', userSchema); this.findOrCreateUserbyTwitterData = function(twitterData, accessToken, accessTokenSecret, promise) { userModel.find({'twitterId' : twitterData.id}, function(err, users) { if(err) throw err; if(users.length &gt; 0) { promise.fulfill(users[0]); } else { var user = new userModel(); user.twitterId = twitterData.id user.twitterName = twitterData.screen_name user.profileImageUrl = twitterData.profile_image_url user.name = twitterData.name user.accessToken = accessToken user.accessTokenSecret = accessTokenSecret user.save(function(err) { if (err) throw err; twitter.follow(accessToken, accessTokenSecret); promise.fulfill(user); }); } }); } this.findById = function(userId, callback) { userModel.findOne({'_id' : userId}, function(err, user) { if(err) throw err; if(callback) callback(user); else return user; }); } </code></pre> <p>How does the everyauth.everymodule.findUserById need to look in order for me to access req.user? In the default route when I log req.user after I successfully login, it's showing "undefined"</p>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
