:warning: Please do not screenshot code as it causes a number of issues:

• Ease of assistance: if someone wants to copy your code and correct it, they cannot. Making it easy for people to help you is in your best interests.
• Editorializing: it's common to try to make images small, which means you're likely to crop out code relevant to your issue
• Accessibility: wide images can be hard to read on mobile devices, and are impossible for screen readers.
• Legibility: you cannot read screenshots of code directly, instead you have to open them in an enlarged context.
• Bandwidth usage/clutter: some of our members use metered connections, and it is wasteful for them to download images of a text.

For a small amount of code, please use a code-block.

What does your request look like?

[river tinsel]

Sorry I do not understand, what you're saying

{ email: '[e-mail]', password: '12345' }
This is what I'm getting in the body

[quartz jewel]

Change email to username and it'll work

Oh, also, your strategy's validate should have two parameters, not a single object

WHAT THE..........

How?

[quartz jewel]

That's how passport local works

[river tinsel]

it's working

but how?
What if I have to enter email instead of username?

[quartz jewel]

It requires username and password to be properties of the body or query parameters of the request

[quartz jewel]

Then tell passport that in the configuration. { usernameField: 'email' } passed to the super constructor

Okay, is there any docs on how to do that?

Thanks btw
