TypeError: Cannot set property 'email' of undefined

Am working on a project using Nodejs and am trying to apply the password encryption but still getting this error "TypeError: Cannot set property 'email' of undefined". please can anyone help me? THANKS



var passport = require('passport');
var User = require('../models/user');
var LocalStrategy = require('passport-local').Strategy;
passport.serializeUser(function(user, done){
done(null, user.id);
});

passport.deserializeUser(function(id, done){
User.findById(id, function(err,user){
done(err, user);
});
});

passport.use('local.signup', new LocalStrategy({
usernameField: 'email',
passwordField: 'password',
passReqToCallback: true
}, function(req, email, password, done){
User.findOne({'email': email}, function(err, user){
if(err){
return done(err);
}
if(user){
return done(null, false, {message: 'Email is already in use'});
}
var newUser = new User();
newUser.local.email = email;
newUser.local.password = newUser.encryptPassword(password);
newUser.save(function(err, result){
if(err){
return done(err);
}
return done(null, newUser);
});
});
}));

First, define newUser.local then newUser.local.email and password.



 var newUser = new User();
newUser.local = {email:"", password:""};
newUser.local.email = email;
newUser.local.password = password;
newUser.save(function(err, result){
if(err){
return done(err);
}
