Session key value not available in the view

[Sebastjan Hribar]

Hi,

I've encountered another problem, which I can't debug on my own. As the title says, I set a session value in a route, but that is not available in the view. For example, in the login route I have:

      r.post do
        @user = User.first(username: r.params['username'])

        if @user && @user.authenticate(r.params['password'])
          session[:user_id] = @user.id
          flash[:notice] = 'Login successful!'
          r.redirect '/users'
        else
          flash.now[:error] = 'Invalid username or password.'
          view('login')
        end
      end

In my layout.erb the session[:user_id] comes in empty.

I'm using the roda sequel stack and I haven't modified anything about sessions and I don't get any other errors. Am I missing some additional configuration?

rosa-sequel-stack defaults to the Roda session plugin, which uses JSON for session storage, and doesn't support symbol keys.  Can you change it to use session['user_id'] and see if that fixes the issue?

Thanks,

Oh my god! It was staring me in the face! I went back and checked Mastering Roda and sure enough it's r.session["name"] and not a symbol.

I apologize...
