Updating localStorage Auth Token

[mhaagens]

I can't seem to get the Auth Token saved in localStorage to refresh.
From what I understand each request to the API should send back a new token,
but the token in jToker doesn't update. Could someone point me in the right direction?

Hi, have you managed to get the token saved somehow? Neither cookies nor localStorage works for me.

Update 1: I found out why it's not working for me, because it doesn't read the custom header values. Unfortunately, I have yet to find a solution.

Update 2: Adding the expose option to a resource in rack-cors solves this issue.

config.middleware.insert_before 0, 'Rack::Cors' do
  allow do
    origins '*'
    resource '*', headers: :any, expose: ['access-token', 'token-type', 'client', 'expiry', 'uid'], methods: [:get, :post, :options, :patch]
  end
end

Look at the casing of the response headers... this has tripped me up in all sorts of scenarios that depend on auth headers, not just using this lib. I dont know why, but some appservers upcase each word =(

I was having the same issue, in 2023! Adding 'access-token', 'token-type', 'client', 'expiry', 'uid' to my expose headers in config/initializers/cors.rb saved the day 🙏🏻

Didn't think anyone was still using this in 2023. Can't even remember what I was doing with it back then.

It's hard to find something that does token auth with a Rails 7 backend these days. All the new frameworks want to sell you on their serverless JS-only toys. But I'm open to suggestions 😃 I've only been at this new project for a few days...
