auth via sessions on custom server
Hi, i am wondering, Is there any chance to authenticate user via access/refresh session tokens on my server? I can't use JWT because my server uses SSR (SvelteKit).
I have already figured out how to authenticate user via expired JWT and access/refresh session tokens, but it is litttle bit too sofisticated. BTW thank you for Appwrite, is awesome
TL;DR
The user is asking if it is possible to authenticate users via access/refresh session tokens on their server. They mention they cannot use JWT due to server-side rendering (SSR) with SvelteKit. They have already figured out a solution using expired JWTs and access/refresh session tokens, but find it complicated. They also express gratitude for Appwrite.
Not really.
First of all, SSR makes things significantly more complicated. If you don't need it, i recommend turning it off.
If you need it and you want to have API calls made both on the client and server-side, you'd have to make sure the session cookie is shared between the client and the server. Take a look at https://svelte-kit.ssr.almostapps.eu/ for a demo.
Thank you very much
