Trying to understand this authorization tutorial code
I'm trying to understand the sky api authorization code flow tutorial sample.
I will probably keep on updating this post when I have new questions, but for now this is the piece I want to understand more.
So what I understand is when this code is called
.controller('AppController', function ($scope, $http, $window) {
/**
* Checks the user access token.
*/
$http.get('/auth/authenticated').then(function (res) {
$scope.isAuthenticated = res.data.authenticated;
if ($scope.isAuthenticated === false) {
$scope.isReady = true;
return;
}
the route /auth/authenticated is being called, which calls this code block
app.get('/auth/authenticated', routes.auth.getAuthenticated);
and this calls this
function getAuthenticated(request, response) {
validate(request, function (success) {
var json = {
authenticated: success
};
if (success) {
json.tenant_id = request.session.ticket.tenant_id;
}
response.json(json);
});
}
From know on it's my best guess. So this part returns true validate(request, function (success) { because there is a request and also sets success true. Now there is a json variable with a property authenticated and it is success. If success is true the json variable get another property called tenant_id set to be request.session.ticket.tenant_id and then the response.json sends the json. Am I correct and what exactly is success?
