Usually the secret is hard-coded in node apps which use express-session, for example -

Answered 2022-Mar-15 at 22:21

As best I know there is no documented way to change the secret on a running set of express-session middleware. I can think of several "hack" approaches that do enough debug sleuthing to dip into the right private data structure in the express-session code or add a new method to express-session to change the secret or disable the original session middleware and install a new session middleware one with a new secret.

But, that would break any existing sessions that were active (because the cookie they are based is encrypted using that original secret) so it's probably not a practical choice.

My motivation is that I put most of my code on github and I prefer not to hard-code any passwords or secrets.

If this is your motivation, then usually, you make the session secret part of some configuration/deployment file that is NOT checked into github and is managed separately. This is the same type of config file you would put database passwords and other credentials needed for your server. That way, when your server starts up, it gets the credentials/secrets it needs from a local configuration file that is not stored in github.

Then, you also don't have to try to change a running session middleware secret on the fly either.

Now that you mention Heroku, here are the techniques that Heroku mentions for managing configuration variables:

Option 1: switch the order of the calls to auth and connect

From the Node Redis client documentation:

When connecting to a Redis server that requires authentication, the AUTH command must be sent as the first command after connecting.

You should therefore switch the order of the calls to redisClient.auth and redisClient.connect.

Option 2: remove the call to auth

However, the documentation for the password property of createClient options states:

If set, client will run Redis auth command on connect.

As you are supplying password to createClient, you could alternatively just remove the explicit call to auth.

The problem is redis. With newer versions it saves the keys differently.

If you want to use the same code as Ben, you have to use legacyMode:

I'm creating an API using NestJS and was trying to set up a session store for my express session but I get an error from this line. I did use express-session with Redis on a new project I created just using express beforehand to understand how Redis and express sessions worked but when I tried porting it over to NestJS it didn't work.

The error states it right there. connect_redis1.default is not a function. Instead, you should use import * as conectRedis from 'connect-redis'. I've got an example here which looks like this:

Well, as noticed by @Apoorva Chikara and mentioned by @Leibale Eidelman , connect-redis does not support latest node-redis yet, so to fix it I just downgraded my redis package to the version 3.1.2 by using $ yarn add redis@3.1.2.

The repository (in the form of a Google Cloud Platform project) has been deleted (or made inaccessible). As a result you're unable to retrieve the image from the repository.

You may want to contact the author of the documentation that you're using to ask for an update.

You can confirm this by browsing the link:
