jQuery Mobile | jQuery Mobile Radical Transparency - a blog brought to you by the team at Keen IO Think back to your last job interview for a sec. How important did the interviewer make you feel? How much did they seem to value what you had to offer? Did they value your time more than they valued their own? If yours was anything like most interviews, your answers probably went something like: 1) Not too important, 2) Not too valued, and 3) Damn sure their time was more valuable than mine. It always amazes me when companies act like you need them more than they need you, when it’s really the other way around. When did building a company become more about the business than about the people? And yet, it still happens. I’ll have the soup, and some backstory, please. I met Kyle Wild in the summer of 2013 in San Francisco during a fundraising trip for my previous startup, Relify. Lunch at Fresca in West Portal.

It seems the community is interested in this topic, so we published a second article on token based authentication in realtime frameworks like socket.io. There is a great interest in this subject so we decided to continue with an article that explores in more detail some of the most common questions around token-based authentication. So here we go... 1. In the context of tokens being used on single page applications, some people have brought up the issue about refreshing the browser, and what happens with the token. If you are wondering "but if I store the token in the cookie I'm back to square one". 2. Tokens have an expiration (in JSON Web Tokens is represented by exp property), otherwise someone could authenticate forever to the API once they logged in at least once. 3. 4. 5.

Logging In Once the vline.Client has been created, the next step is to log in to the vLine cloud. // Your server generates both an authToken and profile, which in this snippet// were injected into the page by the server and assigned to window.AUTH_TOKEN// and window.PROFILE, respectivelythis.client_. login('YOUR_SERVICE_ID', window.PROFILE, window.AUTH_TOKEN). done(this.init_, this); // app init function invoked when login succeedsfunction MyApp.prototype.init_ = function(session) { this.session_ = session; // Upon a successful login, your callback will get a vline.Session object, which represents the logged-in user and is used for all requests to the vLine cloud.
