passport: different redirect for login and account registration

Вопрос
i'm using the passport module (github authentication) in my app and i want to redirect depending on the action ... i check if it's just a normal login or if the user logs in for the first time.
passport.use(new GitHubStrategy({
clientID: conf.github.app_id,
clientSecret: conf.github.app_secret,
callbackURL: conf.github.callback_url
},
function(accessToken, refreshToken, profile, done) {
// asynchronous verification, for effect...
process.nextTick(function () {
// To keep the example simple, the user's GitHub profile is returned to
// represent the logged-in user. In a typical application, you would want
// to associate the GitHub account with a user record in your database,
// and return that user instead.
Models_User.findOrCreateUser(profile, function(msg){
console.log("auth type:" + msg);
});
return done(null, profile);
});
}
));
in my findOrCreateUser function i check if it's a new user and do all the db action ... for testing i let the function return a msg variable which is only a string that says "login" or "new_registration".
so my question is how to "transport" that variable that i get from findOrCreateUser so that i can redirect accordingly ("/welcome" or "/back_again") after the passport auth is finished.
the other passport code in my app:
// GET /auth/github
// Use passport.authenticate() as route middleware to authenticate the
// request. The first step in GitHub authentication will involve redirecting
// the user to github.com. After authorization, GitHubwill redirect the user
// back to this application at /auth/github/callback
app.get('/auth/github',
passport.authenticate('github'),
//passport.authenticate('github', { scope: ['user', 'public_repo', 'gist'] }),
function(req, res){
// The request will be redirected to GitHub for authentication, so this
// function will not be called.
});
// GET /auth/github/callback
// Use passport.authenticate() as route middleware to authenticate the
// request. If authentication fails, the user will be redirected back to the
// login page. Otherwise, the primary route function function will be called,
// which, in this example, will redirect the user to the home page.
app.get('/auth/github/callback',
passport.authenticate('github', { successRedirect: '/', failureRedirect: '/login' }),
function(req, res) {
res.redirect('/');
});

In your verify callback, I would change things up so that the findOrCreateUser
function supplies the actual record to the callback, and then pass that through to done()
, like so:
Models_User.findOrCreateUser(profile, function(user){
console.log("auth type:" + msg);
return done(null, user);
});
// take this out, use the actual model above
//return done(null, profile);
Now, when handling the callback URL after authentication, you can check this user record and see if it was new (I'm assuming it has an isNew property here):
app.get('/auth/github/callback',
passport.authenticate('github', { failureRedirect: '/login' }),
function(req, res) {
// successful auth, user is set at req.user. redirect as necessary.
if (req.user.isNew) { return res.redirect('/back_again'); }
res.redirect('/welcome');
});
