User login / authentication about ghost HOT 3 CLOSED

I'm happy to take this on.

What I've done on a previous node site:

1. Register people with Google's OAuth (tutorialized here: https://gist.github.com/javorszky/c69ac6ed67ad18ab74f5)
2. set a cookie that's unique (using uuid-v4), and store said cookie with userid pair in database.

Cookie based auth: Is the cookie value in the db? Yes -> Grab user; No -> Present login.

Login: check against password. Ok? Yes -> Set cookie and continue; No -> Prompt again.

Logout: Destroy cookie.

Auth would basically check for cookie vs db. (And at a later date, keep the last 20 users in memory even until cookieexpire).

When a user logs in to Ghost, it should be with the email address and
password associated with their user account on Ghost. Although we may add
3rd party auth options later, the most basic version of Ghost will need to
have its own system.

Is this still something you're happy to take on?

Yup, already doing that as we speak. 3rd party was only meant as an example. Currently working on registering new users, so yeah, assign this to me please :).
