flanker VS Passport

So, it's time to switch to the Mail Service provider. In our case it will be Mailgun. To do this, you just need to register and attach the card to your Mailgun account. After activating your account with the card attached, you can set up a domain for your email.

Mailgun. A developer-focused, scalable, and reliable email sending service.

This guide will describe how to set up Uptime Kuma on Koyeb to monitor your services and send notifications. Uptime Kuma uses a local SQLite database to store user data, configuration for services, and more. We will deploy it alongside Litestream to automatically replicate the data to an S3-compatible bucket hosted on Backblaze's B2 service. We'll use a Mailgun account to set up SMTP details for notifications.

Sendgrid, Mailgun, or Postmark are great solutions if you have a need for transactional emails that are technical. I still prefer using Customer.io for this need. If you’re unsure what transactional emails are, check out this guide.

Anyway, in answer to your question, you most likely can’t. You should use a mail relay service such as MailGun. https://www.mailgun.com/

You could consider to use some email delivery service like Mailgun or Sendgrid. They offer free tiers and their servers are more accepted than some random self-hosted server.

Visit the Mailgun website and sign up for an account. To create your account, provide the required information, including your email address and password. Mailgun offers different plans, including a free tier with limited features.

Next, use something like https://www.npmjs.com/package/passport, this is authentication middleware, and it works similarly for different authentication providers. Carefully read the documentation. OAuth is complicated, but that's because it solves a complicated problem

Passport is outdated and the project has been more or less on a stand-still for years now. As of currently, there are more than 320 open issues and very few have been resolved within the last months. I'd highly advice you not to use Passport for your applications in 2023. You've received some great alternatives by others in the comments here.

lib: The lib folder, short for "library", is mostly used to store the actual source code of the package, but it can also be used to store third-party code, utilities and helpers. Example from passport.

Research - there's github and stackoverflow documentation saying this is part of passport.js 0.6.0 that can be resolved by turning logout into a callback function (I was not the first person to encounter this error).

passport for authentication

I went down the rabbithole of using next-auth (now authjs) for a recent project. Having used Passport.js [1] for Oauth2 the last time I was doing node.js ~3 years ago, I found this library to have many footguns as comments/answers on SO and Github.

Seems like many people are trying to shoehorn their codebase [2] (!!) to make it work with the way the library manages sign-in flow, redirects, cookies, logout, etc. [3]

These were solved problems in the MEAN stack era with middlewares, but now that Next.js/react is the trend, people are doing everything they can to make it work - from relaxing security configs, to stashing things in the JWT just so some callback can get an additional piece of data.
