Session not persisting

[dmatthams]

Hi! I've setup nuxt-directus and can successfully login + the cookies get set, yet when refreshing the page or closing the window and returning it seems to lose the session. I have autoFetch: true Am I missing something?

Is the cookie set after closing the window?

[dmatthams]

Yes after closing tab the session + refresh cookies remain.

[Intevel]

Do you have a middleware?

[dmatthams]

Yes, the same as the example:

export default defineNuxtRouteMiddleware((to, _from) => {
    const user = useDirectusUser();
    if (!user.value) {
        return navigateTo("/");
    }
});

[dmatthams]

Ok, getting this error in console:

[Directus Error]: FetchError: request to http://localhost:8055/users/me failed, reason: connect ECONNREFUSED 127.0.0.1:8055 (http://localhost:8055/users/me)
Couldn't fetch user TypeError: Cannot read properties of undefined (reading '_data')

I also have the problem that the session seems not persisting if I put a middleware like described in the docs:

export default defineNuxtRouteMiddleware((to, _from) => { const user = useDirectusUser(); if (!user.value) { return navigateTo("/login"); } });

I get no errors in the console though.

this should work as middleware, I will update the documentation soon.

export default defineNuxtRouteMiddleware(async (to, _from) => {
  const { fetchUser, setUser } = useDirectusAuth();
  const user = useDirectusUser();
  if (!user.value) {
    const user = await fetchUser();
    setUser(user.value);
  }
  if (!user.value) {
    return navigateTo("/login");
  }
});

@casualmatt

why is my user.value always null? if i login just now and hit the middleware, its still null.

[Nisthar]

both user from useDirectusUser() and fetchUser() is undefined.
