I am creating node.js app using express, everyauth and now.js.
I have a server-side now.js function in which I want to be able access the 'User' object for the authenticated user calling this function. I dont have access to the a 'request' or 'session' object, I only have the user cookie and connect.sid
My question is, whats best way to get the session information I'm looking for? Do I store these details in the cookie when the original page request comes in? Or Is there a way to get the session object from the connect.sid?
Thanks
To solve this I created a Memory Session store, which I passed in when creating the Express App. Which allows me to access the session store
When a server-side nowjs function is called I use the connect.sid to retrieve the users session from the session store. This session then has all the authenticated users details.
