passport.authenticate(requireLogin) does not work, when called to http://localhost:8080/api/auth/login shows bad request.

passport.js

var passport = require('passport');
var User = require('../app/models/user');
var config = require('./auth');
var JwtStrategy = require('passport-jwt').Strategy;
var ExtractJwt = require('passport-jwt').ExtractJwt;
var LocalStrategy = require('passport-local').Strategy;

var localOptions = {
    usernameField: 'email'
};

var localLogin = new LocalStrategy(localOptions, function(email, password, done){

    User.findOne({
        email: email
    }, function(err, user){

        if(err){
            return done(err);
        }

        if(!user){
            return done(null, false, {error: 'Login failed. Please try again.'});
        }

        user.comparePassword(password, function(err, isMatch){

            if(err){
                return done(err);
            }

            if(!isMatch){
                return done(null, false, {error: 'Login failed. Please try again.'});
            }

            return done(null, user);

        });

    });

routes.js

var AuthenticationController = require('./controllers/authentication'),  
    TodoController = require('./controllers/todos'),  
    express = require('express'),
    passportService = require('../config/passport'),
    passport = require('passport');

var requireAuth = passport.authenticate('jwt', {session: false}),
    requireLogin = passport.authenticate('local', {session: false});

module.exports = function(app){

    var authRoutes = express.Router(),
        todoRoutes = express.Router();

    // Auth Routes
    app.use('/api/auth', authRoutes);

    authRoutes.post('/register', function(req, res){    //working fine
    AuthenticationController.register(req,res)});

    authRoutes.post('/login', requireLogin, function(req, res){    //not working. requireLogin
   AuthenticationController.login(req,res)});

    authRoutes.get('/protected', requireAuth, function(req, res){

Use the below code as your session setup code //================== passport.serializeUser(function(user, done) { done(null, user.id); });

passport.deserializeUser(function(id, done) { User.findById(id, function(err, user) { done(err, user); }); });
