  userController.postLogin);

```

user-controller.js

```js

exports.home = function(req, res, next){

  // app logic here

  res.render(req.render); // 'home'

};

exports.postLogin = function(req, res, next){

  // login logic here

  if(req.user){

    return res.redirect(req.redirect.success); // redirects to 'dashboard';

  }
