Using passport local strategy.
my front-end code is like below, and it works fine in localhost with a proxy setting.
Axios.post(/api/users/login, loginData)
But when I change it to environment variable (preparing deploy), the passport object doesn't show in the session.
Environment variable with dotenv:
Axios.post(${process.env.REACT_APP_API_URI}/api/users/login, loginData)
or hardcode to local host:
Axios.post(http://localhost:8080/api/users/login, loginData)
If I change it back it works fine again.
Serializer was called, user-id returns to the frontend and I can save it in local storage.
But no passport data in session, hence, the deserializer doesn't work as well.
It seems the issue occurs when I don't use proxy settings.
I'm using "http-proxy-middleware" for localhost for a development environment, it works and when the request doesn't pass the middleware it happens. I tried to add this in Axios header,
{ withCredentials: true }
app.use(function (req, res, next) {
res.header(
"Access-Control-Allow-Origin",
"http://localhost:8000",
"https://powerful-badlands-37777.herokuapp.com/"
); // update to match the domain you will make the request from
res.header(
"Access-Control-Allow-Headers",
"Origin, X-Requested-With, Content-Type, Accept"
);
next();
});`
and cookie setting also added this(because I'm not sure the cause of the issue)
cookie: { secure: true, maxAge: 24 * 60 * 60 * 1000, // 24 hours sameSite: "None", },
It would be a really big help if you can advise me where to look to fix it.
I'm lost and in hurry... Thanks.
