AdonisJS 5 + Prisma + MongoDB + Authentication

[PHDiniiz]

Is there any way to use Adonis with Prisma and perform the login and registration process via MongoDB? I watched the AdonisJS Authentication with Prisma video where it shows the integration of Prisma with MongoDB, however, Redis is used instead of Database. I would like to know if anyone has already managed to use it or if there is a simple boilerplate that performs this function. Could anyone help me with this? Thank you in advance.

I follow all steps (with Redis), but when I send a request on /register, I received this message:

"message": "Reached the max retries per request limit (which is 20). Refer to \"maxRetriesPerRequest\" option for details.",
    "stack": "MaxRetriesPerRequestError: Reached the max retries per request limit (which is 20). Refer to \"maxRetriesPerRequest\" option for details.\n    at Socket.<anonymous> (...\node_modules\\ioredis\\built\\redis\\event_handler.js:182:37)\n    at Object.onceWrapper (node:events:629:26)\n    at Socket.emit (node:events:514:28)\n    at TCP.<anonymous> (node:net:323:12)"

Hey @PHDiniiz! 👋🏻

I am not sure I got what you mean by "Redis is used instead of Database", but you can use Prisma with our community provider (adonis-prisma). However, I would recommend using Lucid and an SQL database instead of relying on MongoDB for your primary database.

Also, the error shown means ioredis cannot connect to our Redis instance.

Hii @RomainLanz!

We are currently using version 4 of AdonisJS with Lucid and MongoDB in production. However, as AdonisJS is already in its Legacy version, we are migrating to v5 (programming the business rules from scratch). My question is about authentication using Prisma and MongoDB. Using the @adonisjs/auth package, it asks where we want to store the API Tokens (Database/Redis). Is it possible to use Database instead of Redis for this? I ask because, as we already use MongoDB, we would not like, at this moment, to use Redis just for this.

You have to create a guard that works with MongoDB to use our auth module.
We made a section in the documentation with an example; could you let me know if that helps?

I'lltest the information in the documentation above and get back to you as soon as possible.
