mod-main: based64 encode to hold data during users signup phase

[joe-getcouragenow]

In mod-main, a user enters data and fills out various forms before they have an account.

And when they signup we DONT create a full account until we have emailed then and they click in the email on the Verify link, which then opens the Verify Page.

SO we have lost of the data that they filled in previously.

Solutions ?

We could save it using Shared Prefences, but that ties the data to their machine.

The more robust way is to base64 encode the data they filled out in the form, and then add it to the Verify link ! This allows the data to travel along via the email, and so if they open the email from a different machine everything still works. We will encrypt the base64 data using a global secret key that is is in the sys-core config

Anyway, here is a simple example of doing it in Flutter

base64 encoding with jwt Out jwt into session: https://github.com/carzacc/jwt_tutorial_flutter_web/blob/master/lib/main.dart#L117 Get jwt from server in coe: https://github.com/carzacc/jwt_tutorial_flutter_web/blob/master/lib/main.dart#L183 https://github.com/carzacc/jwt_tutorial_flutter_web/blob/master/lib/main.dart#L26

In mod-main, this in one of the Flutteer models that needs to be base64 encoded: https://github.com/getcouragenow/packages/tree/master/mod-main/client/lib/modules/user_needs/data

• Needs to be made into a collection because they fill out many questions

Here is the current GUI for it: https://maintemplate.ci.getcouragenow.org/#/myneeds/orgs/001, so you can see how the GUI maps to the Model

But the users fills out more than just this also.
