meteor-email-verifier

Email verification package that works with iron router.

Description

Based on https://github.com/ideaq/meteor-email

To use:

1. Add the package

       meteor add cunneen:email-verifier

2. Put code similar to the following in your application, so that

   1. Users are sent a verification email when they register
   2. Users can't login until their email address has been verified.

   (Note: This uses the accounts-entry package, with pull request #350 ).

   1    if (Meteor.isServer) {
   2      Accounts.config({
   3        "sendVerificationEmail": true,
   4        "loginExpirationInDays": 5
   5      });
   6      if (AccountsEntry) {
   7        AccountsEntry.config({
   8        "signupCode": "secretS1gnupC0de",
   9        "passwordSignupFields": "USERNAME_AND_EMAIL"
   10      });
   11      }
   12      //Copy all of the properties in the settings over to the emailTemplates
   13      _.extend(Accounts.emailTemplates, {
   14        "siteName": "My Fantastic Site",
   15        "from": "no-reply@example.com"
   16      });
   17  
   18      var loginAttemptVerifier = function (parameters) {
   19        if (parameters.user && parameters.user.emails && (parameters.user.emails.length > 0)) {
   20          // is the user an admin ?
   21          var adminUser = (parameters.user.username === "admin");
   22          if (adminUser) {
   23            return parameters.allowed;
   24          }
   25          // return true if verified email, false otherwise.
   26          var found = _.find(parameters.user.emails, function (thisEmail) {
   27            return thisEmail.verified;
   28          });
   29          if (!found) {
   30            throw new Meteor.Error(500, 'We sent you an email.');
   31          }
   32          return found && parameters.allowed;
   33        } else {
   34          console.log("user has no registered emails.");
   35          return false;
   36        }
   37      };
   38      Accounts.validateLoginAttempt(loginAttemptVerifier);
   39  }

3. Ensure your email is configured:

   • In your server/server.js file add the following MAIL_URL config line:

   1    process.env.MAIL_URL="smtp://xxxxx%40gmail.com:yyyyy@smtp.gmail.com:465/"; 

   Where xxxxx is your gmail username and yyyyy is your gmail password.
