Laravel, Angular 7, JWT cookie storage












0















I have a requirement to implement JWT authentication on an application and I'm trying to mitigate as many risks as possible by using cookie storage (httpOnly) instead of localStorage.



A Laravel server is set up as an API and does not serve the Angular 7 app. The login controller response with the following:



return response()->json($user)->cookie('access_token', $token, 15, '/', true, true);



I can see the cookie (token=blahblahblah) in my response after a POST request to the login URL. I've set withCredentials: true in all requests following the login. I might be wildly misunderstanding this but I want that cookie to be sent along with every subsequent request to authenticate my now logged in user. My middleware in Laravel is looking for $request->cookie('access_token') which is always empty.



Is this even possible to achieve?

          You could use a HttpInterceptor and send your token in the 'Authorization' header, it will be executed with every request.



          https://angular.io/api/common/http/HttpInterceptor



          export class JwtInterceptor implements HttpInterceptor {
          intercept(req: HttpRequest<any>, next: HttpHandler): Observable<HttpEvent<any>> {
          // Clone the request to add the new header
          const clonedRequest = req.clone({ headers: req.headers.set('Authorization', 'YOUR_TOKEN') });

          // Pass the cloned request instead of the original request to the next handle
          return next.handle(clonedRequest);
          }}
