## Example
Using vk-auth is easy enough; it accepts two parameters in it's constructor (applicationId and required permissions) and provides single method for authorization:
``` js
var vkAuth = require('vk-auth')(123456, 'audio');
vkAuth.authorize('johndoe@example.com', 'password', function(err, tokenParams) {
//do something with access token
});
```

## Constructor parameters
#### require('vk-auth')(applicationId, permissions);
To get applicationId you need to create vk app [here](https://vk.com/editapp?act=create).
You can pass app permissions as a string or array e.g.
```js
var permissions = 'friends,video,offline';
var anotherPermissons = [
'wall',
'friends'
];
```
To get more information about available permissions visit [Application Access Permissions](http://vk.com/dev/permissions) page
## Method parameters
#### vkAuth.authorize(login, password, callback)
*Login* - user's email or phone number
*Password* - user's password
*Callback(err, tokenParams)* - accepts two parameters - error and token parameters
## Events
You can subscribe to events emitted by authorization module instead of passing callback.
There are two events available:
*"auth"* - Authorization succeed
*"error"* - Error happened during authorization
Example:
```js
var vkAuth = require('vk-auth')(123456, 'audio');
vkAuth.authorize('johndoe@example.com', 'password');
vkAuth.on('error', function(err) {
console.log(err);
});
vkAuth.on('auth', function(tokenParams) {
//do something with token parameters
})
```
## Token
Here is an example of received token parameters:
```js
{
access_token: 801edadc2f0d1898676e2804ec50b9990801dcd3fd5e9bc197898c19b9d796596d79c03278489f3e88
expires_in: 86400

}
