$.couch.login(options);
Hello all,
Can someone please explain to me what do I need to pass in as the parameter
to log in from couchapp via jquery.
For example I have an admin account name "John" "Doe".
What is the exact syntax to login and create a session in my couchApp.
Thanks in advance.

The success and error functions need to be in the same object as the user
and pwd fields:
{
name:"USERNAME",
password:"PASSWORD",
success: function(resp){
alert(resp);
},
error: function(status, error, reason){
alert("Status: " + status + " Error: " + error + " Reason: " +
reason);
}
}

Posted by Duc Phan <th...@gmail.com>.
Hi Alan,
Thanks again for your help. Please excuse my lack of knowledge on these
topics since
I am new to JQuery + CouchDB.
I have attempted to get the result from the login and failed.
I have tried to several methods such as:
1. $.couch.login({name:"USERNAME"
,password:"PASSWORD"},{ success: function(result){ alert(result)}});
2. $.couch.login({name:"USERNAME"
,password:"PASSWORD"}, success: function(result){ alert(result)});
3. $.couch.login({name:"USERNAME"
,password:"PASSWORD"},{ success: function(result){ alert(result.value)}});
4. $.couch.login({name:"USERNAME"
,password:"PASSWORD"},{ success: function(result){ alert(result.userCtx)}});
5. $.couch.login({name:"USERNAME"
,password:"PASSWORD"},{ success: function(result){
alert(result.value.userCtx)}});
I must be missing something and I cannot figure out what it is.
Again, I really appreciate your time and effort.

Re: $.couch.login(options);
Posted by Alan Plante <al...@gmail.com>.
If you want the login result, you need to pass in a success and/or error
function with the object you pass to the login method. You can't get the
login result the way you're doing it. If you look at the code in the login
method, it makes an XHR call which is asynchronous. When it returns, if
you've specified a sucess/error function it will call it. That's how you
need to get the result.
Wrt session method, I've never used it but if you look at the code, you need
to pass in a success and/or error function and you don't need to pass in
name/password.
I can't recommend enough stepping into those functions from your code just
so you not only get comfortable with debugging but you'll also get a better
feel for what the various functions require of callers.
Hope this helps,
Al

Re: $.couch.login(options);
Posted by Duc Phan <th...@gmail.com>.
Hello again,
I was able to log in from my couchapp using
$.couch.login({name:"USERNAME",password:"PASSWORD"});
It seemed like I was able to login successfully but I get undefined as
result when I try to pull up the session info.
Here is a code segment of what I did.
$db = $.couch.db("mydb");
var loginResult = $.couch.login({name:"USERNAME",password:"PASSWORD"});
var session = $.couch.session({name:"USERNAME",password:"PASSWORD"});
document.write(loginResult);
document.write(session);
And, I got undefined undefined as the results for both of them.
Did I miss something ? I tried $.couch.session.(); and received the same
result, undefined.
Again, thanks for all your help.

Typically the login name and password are coming from a login form/input
controls of some sort, with values entered by the user, so the name and
password are not hardcoded in your code. So, would be something like:
$.couch.login( {name:$("#userField").val(), password:$("#pwdField").val()});

Hi Allan,
I still don't understand exactly how to pass in an object with a name and
password property.
The exact syntax in jquery.couch api for login is:
$.couch.login(options)say my created account is: jdoe/foo.
do I do this? $.couch.login( {name:"jdoe", password:"foo"}); ???
And another question I have is...if that is how I login in couchapp using
jquery.couch . How do I protect my account login from
people doing view/Source?
Thank you so much for your help.
Best Regards,
D

Take a look in jquery.couch.js, located in <couch install
loc>/share/couchdb/www/script/jquery.couch.js (on Windows anyway, maybe
somewhere else on Linux?). Another way to see what's going on in there is
to set a breakpoint and step into it in Firebug (assuming you're on FFX; I'm
sure there are similar tools on IE and Chrome). Login method takes an
object with a name and password property, so {name:"jdoe", password:"foo"}.
It also takes an optional success(response) and/or error(requestStatus,
responseError, responseReason) function.
Hope this helps,
Al
