Could you please review my code? I have a Next.js and Node API app, and I'm facing an issue with obtaining the cookie from my API in my Next app. The signInUser API that I created should return a generated JWT cookie. However, when I use it in my Next app, it doesn't appear in the devtools application-cookies. Oddly, when testing the API using Postman or Thunder Client, I can see the JWT token in the cookies tab. What could be causing this discrepancy?
Below is my backend Node API code for the signin process:
const app = express();
app.use(cors());
export const signInUser = async (
req: express.Request,
res: express.Response
) => {
// Code for signing in a user goes here
}
This is the custom generateToken method used to generate a JWT token and set it as a cookie in the response object:
generateToken(res, user.id);
res.status(200).json(response);
Now, let's take a look at the frontend Next.js code for the signin functionality:
const handleSignIn = async (values: z.infer<typeof formSchema>) => {
// Handling sign-in logic in the frontend
}
If anyone has any insights on why the JWT cookie isn't being received correctly in the Next.js app, your help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!
