How do I override the displayRegister method in password.js?

[bbeny]

Here is the code in password.js I am talking about:

  .get('getRegisterPath', "the registration page's uri path.")
    .step('displayRegister')
      .accepts('req res next')
      .promises(null)
  .displayRegister(function (req, res) {
    console.log('\r\n displayRegister base');
    return renderRegister.apply(this, arguments);
  })

Here is how I thought it could be overriden in my everyauth code:

  .getRegisterPath('/registeruser')
  .displayRegister(function (req, res) {
    console.log('\r\n displayRegister child');
  })
  .postRegisterPath('/registeruser')
  .registerView('landing/login/register_user.jade')
  .registerLocals(function (req, res, done) {
    setTimeout(function () {
      done(null, { title: 'Async Register' });
    }, 200);
  })

This is all fine and my 'console.log('\r\n displayRegister child');' gets called. But, the problem is the base method in password.js needs to be called as well.

I've tried the following and it didn't work:

  .displayRegister(function (req, res) {
    console.log('\r\n displayRegister child');
    this._super();
  })

Basically, how do I call the base implementation of the method?

The reason I am doing this is because I want to inject some custom business logic before allowing access to the registeruser path. I want to make sure the user is logged in and belongs to an 'administrator' role. So, basically, I am hiding the registeruser path for non admins. I know this is probably not how everyauth registration is intended to work, but I am wondering if it can be done using the displayRegister method.
