Examples with passport

If you need to use multiple middleware's you can pass them as an array:

@Get('/protected')
@Middleware([checkToken, checkMethod])
method...

I think this is what you are looking for: https://github.com/seanpmaxwell/overnight/blob/master/sample-project/src/controllers/JwtPracticeController.ts. There are quite a few examples in the sample project. As far as Mongo integration goes. It wouldn't really change the way you interact with mongo. What I would do is create a separate DAO (data-access-object) class, put my mongo queries in there, return a promise, then call those methods in your controller.

Also it's not the same approach as passport. Passport (what I thought) was kinda of a wrapper for your API logic and all it does is say which logic to execute and can channel all your logic back to a single async call when finished. But I haven't used passport extensively. @overnight/jwt is to sign a token, an protect and API with middleware.

@seanpmaxwell could be worth some experimentation with passportjs also could be cool to have a look at multiple authentication middlewares on a single route e.g.

@Get('/protected')
@Middleware(checkToken)
@Middleware(checkScope)
method...
