jsConnect with Parse BaaS

Eclipse

Hello,

I've been reading through all the documentation on jsConnect and would very much appreciate some quick insight on my concerns regarding the feasibility of using this plugin.

I use the Parse backend for an iOS and Android application and would like to sync forum login/registration with the accounts made through the app with the Parse server acting as "master". jsConnect seemed like a good choice for this functionality, however I'm worried that I'm violating one of the main "assumptions" the documentation states is needed for jsConnect and that is "Your user is signed into a website."

I may be looking at this from a completely wrong direction, but whether or not a user is logged into the app is irrelevant (for my purposes) when logging into the forums. I am confident that I will be able to get this plugin working without bugging you guys for specific technical help, but was hoping to get an answer on whether or not jsConnect is a good choice for my project before spending many more hours studying the source files.

Thank you very much in advance

It can't be client authority, becuase it is not a trusted source. So it you are using server as an authority that could work.

jsConnect is a thre step handshake. It need to be able to contact the authority over http.

if there is no cookie/session handling, then you will may need to substitute that with checking the client is there at the time and you can verify them securely.

Thank you very much, @x00 . If I can achieve this functionality and confirm it's being done securely, I will create a jsConnect fork for it as a plugin.
