Is there a backend to this? [Question] #601

Closed noobling closed 5 years ago

noobling commented 5 years ago

Hello,

I am using your app to learn more about web technologies. I don't understand how authentication is done. It seems like it would require a backend. All I have is this GraphQL code to go off 

mutation signinUser($email: String!, $password: String!) {
  signinUser(email: { email: $email, password: $password }) {
    token
  }
}

Am I correct in assuming that the backend will execute the authentication code when this query is posted to the graph cool end point?

Thanks!

Normally It uses graphql mutation function for user login so It needs to have (with most of third-party graphql services have this). If you are using your own graphql, Please create signinUser mutation function on your server side. @noobling

So authentication is handled by Graph Cool in this case?
