Twilio 2Factor Auth Example

Node.js example for registration and login. Strong password hashing with the help of BCRYPT as well as 2 Factor Authentication using OneTouch or SoftToken of Twilio Authy, which falls back to SMS if the Authy App is not present. Front-end is a simple design using bootstrap and bootstrap validator for form field validations.

To compile, build and run the server on your own machine or server:

Prerequisites:

• MongoDB server is installed and the daemon/service is running on standard port.
• Build essentials for make. (Ex. in ubuntu run: sudo apt-get install build-essential)

Go to the desired folder on your system. Then on the console type:

git clone https://github.com/alokrajiv/TWILIO-2Factor-Authentication-Tutorial.git
cd twilio_2fa_web_test/
npm install gulp-cli -g
npm install
cp .env.json.sample .env.json

Now edit .env.json file. (Ex: vi .env.json).

Take care to add your Production Key from the Twilio Authy Console. You also can change the port the server will run. The default is 3001.

Now simply run on the console:

gulp serve

The gulp task serve is configured to do everything for you automatically, include building of the minimified code after babel transpiles all the source code from server/ into the dist/ folder.

Once gulp finishes the tasks, it will start the nodemon server and in your console you will see:

SERVER Express server listening on port 3001 +0ms

In your browser go to http://localhost:3001 or whichever is the port you configured in the .env.json file. You will be able to start using the web-app.
