UserController

This controller provides request handlers basically suitable for authenticating as a user. However, neither handler is actually triggering a user's authentication or its logout, but provides suitable responses following some additionally required policies.

Any of the following request handlers can be used as target in your application's routing declarations in section routes of runtime configuration:

{
    "routes": {
        "/login": "user.authenticate",
        "/logout": "user.unauthenticate"
    }
}

authenticate()

This handler is responding on successful authentication.

It relies on policy authentication.login being processed, first.

unauthenticate()

This handler is responding on successfully dropping any authentication.

It relies on policy authentication.logout being processed, first.

changePassword()

This handler is responding on successfully changing user's token.

It relies on policy user.changePassword being processed, first.

getCurrent()

This handler is delivering additional information on recently authenticated user. See related routing description for response examples.

It does not depend on any additional policy being processed first.
