Identif

A Helper to verify one's identity via personal channels

Identif is an abstract helper class to easily implement the identity verification logic via personal channels like SMS, Phone, E-Mail, and more.

• It was written for use on CARPLAT which is the platform service for the car rental.

Installation

# NPM
$ npm install --save identif
# Yarn
$ yarn add identif

Dependencies

• Redis: if you use RedisStore, the connection to redis server is required.

Usage

const { Identif, RedisStore } = require('identif');

// Create an instance of Identif with RedisStore
const identif = new Identif({
  store: new RedisStore({
    redis: { host: 'my.redis.com', port: 6379 },
    ttl: 3 * 60
  })
});

// Request the verification
const { requestId, code, createdAt } = await identif.request();
/*
Output
{
  requestId: 'e89c3600-6ac7-469e-8d7e-e6e7847b346d',
  code: '1274',
  createdAt: '2017-04-23T14:47:24.173Z'
}
*/

// Respond to the client including `requestId`, `createdAt`
// Send `code` via a personal secure channel like SMS, E-Mail

// Verify the request
const data = await identif.verify(requestId, code);
if (!data) {
  // Failed to verify one's identity
} else {
  // Verifed one's identity
}
