Using Passport-steam With Sails-generate-auth

Solution 1:

This is caused by out-of-date source code in npm. Even with the latest 0.1.4 version, the code is not correct. Replacing strategy.js in passport-steam with the latest version will fix this error.

Also, in api\services\passport.js, a little custom handling in passport.connect() needs to be added. The profile does not have a username, but has an id (user steamid) and displayName. These can be used to set the user model properties, e.g.

//steam auth
if (profile.hasOwnProperty('displayName')) { 
  user.username = profile.displayName; 
}
