authentication by email/password

See original GitHub issue

I need to enable authentication by email/password for my API. This is not basic http auth, as I need to verify the data from a MySQL database.

Would it make sense to create a new “provider” package serverless-authentication-database, that will generate some sort of authorization_token which will return the user id ?

There’s a lot of security issues to worry about here, hence I’d love to get your input before I get started.

Guess it makes sense 😃 A bit busy atm, but hopefully I’ll be able to set some time aside next month to work on this, thanks for the feedback!

I’ve been using this project to register users with emails. It doesn’t use user-pools, but instead creates a new developer identity using emails.

I’m considering using this library as it’s designed for the serverlesss framework, but would have email registration also.

Looking forward to an update 😃
