var credentials = {
  username: 'test_user',

var err = authValidator.login(credentials); // pass parameters in to validator

if(err) {
  // do error related things
}

var Joi = require('joi');

var credentials = {
  username: 'test_user',
  password: 'password'
};

var loginSchema = authSchema.login; // grab the auth login schema

var err = Joi.validate(credentials, loginSchema); // Manually call Joi.validate with schema

if(err) {
  // do error related things
}
else {
  // do success related things
}
