At first i thought that i would need to implement sessions, the ones
that keep small files onto the disk, to know which user is talking to
the server, but then i realized that, for now at least, i only need a
very large number, plus the email address, to be used as a lookup, and
that can be stored in the user table, in a separate schema.
Had to change login to avoid raising exceptions when login failed
because i now keep a record of login attemps, and functions are always
run in a single transaction, thus the exception would prevent me to
insert into login_attempt. Even if i use a separate procedure, i could
not keep the records.
I did not want to add a parameter to the logout function because i was
afraid that it could be called from separate users. I do not know
whether it is possible with the current approach, since the settings
variable is also set by the same applications; time will tell.
This is a very rough test to actually check the login function outside
pgTAP; it is very ugly, in both design and code, and (i hope) does not
reflect future quality.
I was about to use Echo[0] as a “web framework”, but something feels
wrong when using a framework with Go—i do not know what. I actually
tried it and was even more put off by the JSON-formatted logger that can
not be disabled; i was already losing control of the application!
I created the folder following the apparently de facto guidelines for Go
projects, and i see no problem with mixing Go’s folders with Sqitch’s:
both are part of the same application and there are not conflicts.
