@sanatisharif someone would need to build a plugin for uploading to minio.io
Maybe to can fork the S3 plugin 🙂
@julian I am trying to use my own application user details (username and userID)
Example:
{
username: 'venkat',
userId : "2a5t8862-88k52-48569df5"
}
can I use above user details for nodebb.
As of now nodebb is creating incremental id (uid)
instead of that uid, can i use my own userId as nodebb
uid
Present Nodebb user details:
{
username: "venkat",
uid: 5
}
my requirement is
{
username: 'venkat',
uid: '2a5t8862-88k52-48569df5'
}
is there any way to implement the above requirement ?

@venkat you want to store a map in the database, mapping NodeBB uid
s to your userId
format.
Same situation here.
We have all our internal services (Marketing, Accounts, Shells, Mail, Forum etc) where users use same useraccount
for loging-in.
Every service works except forum. Ive done as @PitaJ suggested above but no luck.
Anyone ?
What did you try? Have you seen the session sharing plugin?
@pitaj Is it possible to add nodebb uid as a string
I did some code change in Nodebb repo for adding string as a uid, it is storing but while accessing I am not getting the proper data.
can you suggest me the better solution?
I need to use my identifier(string) as a nodebb uid instead of auto increment uid(number) ?
@venkat have you looked at the session sharing plugin?
https://github.com/julianlam/nodebb-plugin-session-sharing
It provide functions for retrieving the NodeBB id from your id.
Using that plugin is the recommended way of sharing sessions between applications.
Changing the NodeBB id format is a futile effort. You can't just change it to a string. The closest you can do is map your id to the NodeBB id.
