Combining koa-passport with koa-router (getting user data) - mongodb

Question

I have created a login which is able to login a user and store the user if they are new in the database.
The user is then redirected to / and then is checked if they are authenticated or not, see below (app.js):
.get('/', function* () {
if (this.isAuthenticated()) {
yield this.render('homeSecure', {}); // <-- need user data here
} else {
yield this.render('homePublic', {});
}
As I commented in the code, I would like to send the user object of which is logged in. I have no idea how to get a hold of the id of the person logged in as the documentation for koa in general is not as complete as that of express.
I am using koa-generic-session-mongo to handle my sessions. Here is my GoogleStrategy (auth.js):
var user = null;
// ...
var GoogleStrategy = require('passport-google').Strategy;
passport.use(new GoogleStrategy({
returnURL: 'http://localhost:' + (process.env.PORT || 3000) + '/auth/google/callback',
realm: 'http://localhost:' + (process.env.PORT || 3000)
},
function (identifier, profile, done) {
var emails = new Array();
for (var i = 0; i < profile.emails.length; i++) {
emails.push(profile.emails[i].value);
}
co(function* () {
yield users.findOne({
emails: emails
});
});
if (user === null) { // first time signin, create account
co(function* () {
user = {
id: 1,
name: profile.displayName,
emails: emails
};
yield users.insert(user);
});
}
console.log(user);
done(null, user);
}));

publicRouter
.get('/', function* () {
if (this.isAuthenticated()) {
yield this.render('homeSecure', {
user: this.req.user
});
} else {
yield this.render('homePublic', {});
}
})...

Disclaimer: I've not used koa-passport, I've just looked at the code.
According to the source code of the koa-passport library, the property you're looking for is passport.user, and is used like so:
app.use( function*(){
var user = this.passport.user
})
Thus, your code sample would become
.get('/', function* () {
if (this.isAuthenticated()) {
yield this.render('homeSecure', this.passport.user );
} else {
yield this.render('homePublic', {});
}
If that does not work, this file leads me to suspect that koa-passport follows the standard passport interface and provides this.user to the request.
