Define your own templates for easy integration with your js/css/html framework:
cp -R node_modules/express-api-user-management-signup/app/public.basic mytheme
and in the config define
...
layout: {
theme: __dirname + '/mytheme'
...
By using jsonform, we can easily extend the form without having to fiddle with database code. Just have a look at :
HINT: you can change the 'formurl'-parameter of 'app.[js,coffee]' (or the json above) into a remote url in order to remotely manage the form
The following webhooks are fired whenever these things occur:
Where configuredhost is defined by you in the config ('http://mygateway.com/foo' e.g.) These webhooks can be reacted upon by other middle/software in order to send emails or update api proxy settings e.g.
