Sign-in Functionality

We focus on the sign in functionality.

1. Handling Authentication Logic

In the auth.ts file, use the authorize function to manage the authentication logic. Validate the email and password using zod before checking if the user exists in the database.

2. Fetching User from Database

After validating credentials, create a getUser function that queries the user from the database using Postgres.

3. Checking Passwords Match

Call bcrypt.compare to check if the entered password matches the one stored in the database.
