Lab Title: Creating a User Login System with Node.

js
Objective:

To create a Node.js application that handles basic user login functionality and demonstrates
server-side routing.

Step 2: Create a Project Folder same as created in the first program with different
name

Step 3: Initialize a Node.js Project

Step 4: Install Required Packages

1. Install Express.js, a web framework for Node.js:

Step 5: Create the Application Files

1. Create a new file named app.js in the project folder.

Step 6: Write the Code in app.js

// Import required modules


const express = require('express');
const bodyParser = require('body-parser');

// Initialize the app


const app = express();

// Middleware for parsing request bodies


app.use(bodyParser.urlencoded({ extended: true }));

// Serve the Login Page


app.get('/', (req, res) => {
res.send(`
<h1>User Login</h1>
<form action="/login" method="POST">
<label for="username">Username:</label>
<input type="text" id="username" name="username" required><br><br>
<label for="password">Password:</label>
<input type="password" id="password" name="password" required><br><br>
<button type="submit">Login</button>
</form>
`);
});

// Handle Login Requests


app.post('/login', (req, res) => {
const { username, password } = req.body;

// Dummy credentials for simplicity


const dummyUser = {
username: 'admin',
password: '12345'
};

if (username === dummyUser.username && password === dummyUser.password) {


res.send(`<h2>Welcome, ${username}!</h2>`);
} else {
res.send('<h2>Invalid username or password. Please try again.</h2>');
}
});

// Start the server


const PORT = 3000;
app.listen(PORT, () => {
console.log(`Server running at http://localhost:${PORT}/`);
});

Step 7: Run the Application

1. Open the terminal in the project folder.


The terminal will display:

Step 8: Test the Application

1. Open a web browser and go to http://localhost:3000/.

2. Enter the following dummy credentials:


o Username: admin
o Password: 12345
3. Click Login:
o If the credentials are correct, you will see a welcome message.
o If the credentials are incorrect, you will see an error message.
