I am trying to create a authentication mechanism in my (cordova) app for android that will allow my users to sign in using a password and username, or allow them to scan their f
You can't authenticate fingerprint on the server, fingerprints are stored or authenticated using Live Scan/Biometric template. Authentication is done by comparing the current scan template with previously stored templates
First of all you don't have access to these stored templates(Not provided by the OS providers/Phone Manufacturers) and If we assume that you have access to those templates, then an efficient algorithm (Image based /Pattern based ) is required to compare the current template with previously stored templates. You can't simply authenticate it by string comparison.
