Breaking Change: Auth Data Structure

[Lissy93]

Version 1.6.5 introduced some additional options for authentication. To prevent the appConfig from becoming too cluttered, all authentication-related options will be moved into appConfig.auth. Previously this data attribute was an array of users, but now it is an object.

The new data structure is already in effect (as of V 1.6.5). If you are still using the old structure, your app will continue to work just fine, but you will see a validation warning. You should update your config using the following example. Support for the old structure will be dropped in version 2 (in about 6 weeks).

To update, in appConfig, just replace, this:

auth:
- user: xxx
  hash: xxx

with this:

auth:
  users:
  - user: xxx
    hash: xxx

Apologies for any inconvenience - I usually try very hard to avoid implementing anything that is not backwards compatible, but this change will be easier to manage in the long-run.

For more info, please see the Authentication Docs.
Feel free to ask any questions :)

⚠️ Support for the old data structure has now been dropped ⚠️

If you're using the latest version of the app, with the old auth structure, you'll see a warning advising you to fix your config.
