Evolution 3# - Authorization (Roles)

[app-generator]

Hello @FullStackkDev

The authorization should link each user to a ROLE:

• user - numeric value 1 in users table
• admin - numeric value 2 in users table

On successful signIN (JWT) or OAuth, the API server return also the role of the user

• during the registration (JWT, OAuth) the created user is associated with a default "USER" role

Thank you!

Hello @FullStackkDev,

We need a simple mechanism (CLI is preferred) to assign an ADMIN role to an existing user.
Let me know a simple solution for this use case.

Ty!

@app-generator I have updated the step4 branch for it.

Run update-role command specified in the package.json file to assign the role. I have described briefly in the README file on how to use this command. https://github.com/app-generator/api-server-nodejs/tree/step4/support-for-react#-update-role-for-existing-user
