Source code of released version | Source code of development version


A turn-key user interface for Meteor Accounts.

To add Accounts and a set of login controls to an application, add the accounts-ui package and at least one login provider package: accounts-password, accounts-facebook, accounts-github, accounts-google, accounts-twitter, or accounts-weibo.

Then simply add the {{> loginButtons}} helper to an HTML file.

See the Meteor Accounts project page for more info.

Details

Adding the {{> loginButtons}} helper to an HTML file will place a login widget on the page. If there is only one provider configured and it is an external service, this will add a login/logout button. If you use accounts-password or use multiple external login services, this will add a "Sign in" link which opens a dropdown menu with login options. If you plan to position the login dropdown in the right edge of the screen, use {{> loginButtons align="right"}} in order to get the dropdown to lay itself out without expanding off the edge of the screen.

To configure the behavior of {{> loginButtons}}, use Accounts.ui.config.

accounts-ui also includes modal popup dialogs to handle links from sendResetPasswordEmail, sendVerificationEmail, and sendEnrollmentEmail. These do not have to be manually placed in HTML: they are automatically activated when the URLs are loaded.
