disable stormpath's Create account option in the login screen

Question

I want to disable the create account in the stormpath login screen. The call to the api should already be made from a user authenticated to the app. I tried setting stormpathEnableRegistration to false but the registration functionality is still enabled.

  app.use(stormpath.init(app, {
     apiKeyFile: config.stormpathapi.apiKeyFile,
     application: config.stormpathapi.application,
     secretKey: config.stormpathapi.secretKey,
     sessionDuration: 1000 * 60 * 30,
     enableAutoLogin: true,
     enableUsername: true,
     stormpathEnableRegistration: false
  }));

Thanks!

I'm the author of the express-stormpath library, sorry this was confusing.

Here's what you need to do:

1. Rename stormpathEnableRegistration -> enableRegistration.
2. Update to the latest release of the library.

I just pushed a change in the latest release which fixes a rendering issue on the login page when this setting is disabled. What used to be happening was this:

• You'd disable registration.
• The registration page wouldn't work.
• But the login page would still render a 'Create Account' link.

In the latest release this is fixed =)

UPDATE: Since the 2.x.x release of express-stormpath is now out, the above information is no longer valid. Instead, you should do this:

app.use(stormpath.init(app, {
  client: {
    apiKey: {
      file: config.stormpathapi.apiKeyFile
    }
  },
  application: {
    href: config.stormpathapi.application
  },
  web: {
    register: {
      enabled: false
    }
  }
}));

This will disable the registration functionality for you =)
