I've tried to make a simple Login form use CE create form. It just contain user name and password as a user database (store in local file as a text file). Not use internet or MySqL as a database.

Now, i want use user database file store, load, read , write and save as stream file as part this CT file. I am use io:file statement.

Is it possible ?. And how put a lookup function to check new or exist user by check the user database file?

Code:

-----------------------------------------------------------------------
--- load user data file stored in stream
function loadTableCode(n2)
 local t2 = findTableFile(n2)
 if t2 ~= nil then
 local s2 = t2.Stream
 local c2 = readStringLocal(s2.Memory,s2.Size)
 return c2 ~= nil and loadstring(c2)
 end
end

local f2 = loadTableCode('userdata.txt')
print(type(f2))
if type(f2) == 'function' then f2() else print('not loaded') end   --- need put a function in txt file?
-----------------------------------------------------------------------

--- Check for new / exist user from user database
function getUserLogin()
local a = control_getCaption(UDF1.CEEdit1)
a = tostring(a)
if a == "" then
 showMessage("Please input user name and password")
 return
end
local b = control_getCaption(UDF1.CEedit2)
b = tostring(b)
if b == "" then
 showMessage("Please input your email and password")
 return
end
 local a = control_getCaption(UDF1.CEEdit1)
 a = tostring(a)
 fh =  io.open("userdata.txt")    --- io.open("E:\\userdata.txt")  use local drive
 while true do
 line = fh:read()
  if line == nil then break end
   -- print (line)
  if string.find(line,a) then
   showMessage("Login accepted !")
   fh:close()
   break
  else
   showMessage("You must register first!")
   control_setCaption(UDF1.CEEdit1,"")
   control_setCaption(UDF1.CEEdit2,"")
   a = ""
   b = ""
   fh:close()
   break
  end
 end
end

function userRegister()
local a = control_getCaption(UDF1.CEEdit1)
a = tostring(a)
if a == "" then
 showMessage("Please input your email and password")
 return
end
local b = control_getCaption(UDF1.CEedit2)
b = tostring(b)
if b == "" then
 showMessage("Please input your email and password")
 return
end
 local file =  io.open("userdata.txt")  --- io.open("E:\\test.txt")
 while true do
 line = file:read()
  if line == nil then break end
   -- print (line)
  if string.find(line,a) then
   showMessage("You already registered")
   control_setCaption(UDF1.CEEdit1,"")
   control_setCaption(UDF1.CEEdit2,"")
   a = ""
   b = ""
   file:close()
   break
  else
   local file =  io.open("userdata.txt")  ---io.open("E:\\test.txt", "a")
   file:write(a.."/"..b, "\n")
   showMessage("Registering Complete !")
   beep()
   control_setCaption(UDF1.CEEdit1,"")
   control_setCaption(UDF1.CEEdit2,"")
   file:close()
  break
 end
end
end
--


function CEButton1Click(sender)
getUserLogin()
end
--
function CEButton2Click(sender)
userRegister()
end
--
function CEButton3Click(sender)
closeCE();
return caFree
end


Thank and regards

Not sure of the method to save a file back into the table, but you would use findTableFile(filename) to retrieve it.

There would also be a major flaw in this implementation approach.

When you release a new version of the table, it's going to wipe out their local copy of the file.

Side note, I wouldn't want my email and password sitting out there in some text file.

Implement a hash, a salt, and an AES-256 encryption onto the password function Laughing

Thanks for you all.
Here are just about the possibility of applying the statements lua IO; to manage database files. Is it possible or not.

Of course we will not share or store our private data such as email and password, etc. with risky situation, anyhow I am trying here is to create a login system that requires the user to verify before being allowed to use the game trainer.

Thank for hint findTableFile(filename) from Zanzer and Implement a hash, a salt, and an AES-256 encryption as suggest by predprey.

So, the conclusion is better use online database such as MySQL to store user database with encryption. Maybe use LuasSocket or other method.

Lua socket is ideal, and yes you should use online database for this, never save information as a plain.
Implement as little as possible on the client more on the server.

I do not know if there luasocket plugin for C.E 6.5.1, but you could user the getInternet function,which allows you to get/post, though it's missing some functions that I found them useful.

hope DB could add the lua socket
Code:
ltn12.sink
class functions into C.E.

f1 = io.input ("C:\\Users\\"..UDF1.CEEDit5.text.."\\Desktop\\"..UDF1.CEEdit4.text)
repeat
s1 = f1:read ("*l") -- read one line
if s1 then -- if not end of file (EOF)
UDF1.CEEdit2.text = s1 -- print that line
end
until not s1 -- until end of file

f1:close () -- close that file now

end
