Detailed Description

Copyright (c) 2015-present, Parse, LLC. All rights reserved.

This source code is licensed under the BSD-style license found in the LICENSE file in the root directory of this source tree. An additional grant of patent rights can be found in the PATENTS file in the same directory. Provides utility functions for working with Anonymously logged-in users. Anonymous users have some unique characteristics:

• Anonymous users don't need a user name or password.
• Once logged out, an anonymous user cannot be recovered.
• When the current user is anonymous, the following methods can be used to switch to a different user or convert the anonymous user into a regular one:
• signUp converts an anonymous user to a standard user with the given username and password. Data associated with the anonymous user is retained.
• logIn switches users without converting the anonymous user. Data associated with the anonymous user will be lost.
• Service logIn (e.g. Facebook, Twitter) will attempt to convert the anonymous user into a standard user by linking it to the service. If a user already exists that is linked to the service, it will instead switch to the existing user.
• Service linking (e.g. Facebook, Twitter) will convert the anonymous user into a standard user by linking it to the service.
