This commit refactors the default user creation logic in
server/main.go
to improve clarity and robustness.Previously, the default user was only added if a password was provided in the configuration. This change ensures the default user (specified by
config.Config.Username
) is always added to theauth.UserStore
at startup. The user's password is now set conditionally .This addresses the TODO comment about handling user addition better, and I attempted to decouple the user's existence from its password configuration.
Testing:
The relevant tests for the underlying authentication functions (
TestUsersAddAndGet
,TestUserSetPassword
,TestNewSession
) ininternal/auth/session_test.go
were run and passed successfully.Important Note: The test file
internal/auth/session_test.go
had pre-existing compile errors unrelated to this change. Parts of the file had to be temporarily commented out to execute the relevant tests. Please do correct me if I am wrong.
