ReactJS: How to implement react-cookie properly in an action?
I have read articles that saving the token in localstorage is dangerous to XSS attack. So I have decided to store my tokens in cookies. And I am using react-cookie. I saw the examples and I am trying to do it but my auth.js consists of const and is not a class, so I do not know how to use the withCookies() with it, this is my auth.js where I want to store the token to the cookies:
import {
LOGIN,
LOGIN_SUCCESS,
LOGIN_FAILED,
GET_USER_DATA,
GET_USER_DATA_SUCCESS,
GET_USER_DATA_FAILED,
LOGOUT,
LOGOUT_SUCCESS,
LOGOUT_FAILED,
} from './types'
import axios from 'axios'
var api = require ('./../api.js');
export const login = (email, pass) => {
return (dispatch) => {
dispatch({
type: LOGIN
})
var url = api.logInApi
axios.post(url, {
email: email,
password: pass
})
.then(res => {
dispatch({
type: LOGIN_SUCCESS,
payload: res.data
})
localStorage.setItem('token', res.data.token)
dispatch(getUserData())
})
.catch(err => dispatch({
type: LOGIN_FAILED,
payload: err
}))
}
}
export const getUserData = () => {
return (dispatch) => {
dispatch({
type: GET_USER_DATA
})
var url = api.getUserDataApi
axios.post(url, {}, {headers: {
"Authorization": `Bearer ${localStorage.getItem("token")}`
}})
.then(res => {
dispatch({
type: GET_USER_DATA_SUCCESS,
payload: res.data
})
})
.catch(err => dispatch({
type: GET_USER_DATA_FAILED,
payload: err
}))
}
}
export const logout = () => {
return (dispatch) => {
dispatch({
type: LOGOUT
})
var url = api.logoutApi
axios.post(url, {}, {headers: {
"Authorization": `Bearer ${localStorage.getItem("token")}`
}})
.then(res => {
window.location.replace("")
dispatch({
type: LOGOUT_SUCCESS,
payload: res.data
})
})
.catch(err => dispatch({
type: LOGOUT_FAILED,
payload: err
}))
}
}
Now, I tried doing this and of course it doesn't work:
import {
LOGIN,
LOGIN_SUCCESS,
LOGIN_FAILED,
GET_USER_DATA,
GET_USER_DATA_SUCCESS,
GET_USER_DATA_FAILED,
LOGOUT,
LOGOUT_SUCCESS,
LOGOUT_FAILED,
} from './types'
import axios from 'axios'
import { withCookies, Cookies } from 'react-cookie'; <<added this

const { cookies } = props; <<added this

axios.post(url, {

})
.then(res => {
dispatch({

cookies.set('token', res.data.token, { path: '/' }); <<added this
dispatch(getUserData())
})
.catch(err => dispatch({
type: LOGIN_FAILED,

}))
}
}
export default withCookies(login) <<added this(wrong)
const getUserData = () => {
return (dispatch) => {
dispatch({

const { cookies } = props; <<added this
var token = cookies.get('token'); <<added this
var url = api.getUserDataApi
axios.post(url, {}, {headers: {

}})
.then(res => {

})
})
.catch(err => dispatch({
type: GET_USER_DATA_FAILED,

}
}
export default withCookies(getUserData) <<added this(wrong)
const logout = () => {
return (dispatch) => {

const { cookies } = props;
var token = cookies.get('token');
var url = api.logoutApi

.then(res => {

})
})
.catch(err => dispatch({
type: LOGOUT_FAILED,
payload: err
}))
}
}
export default withCookies(logout) <<added this(wrong)
this one is wrong because there should only be one export default. But I don't know how to implement withCookies to const and there are also these ones that are included in the example and I don't know if I need them or where do I put them:
static propTypes = {
cookies: instanceOf(Cookies).isRequired
};
constructor(props) {
super(props);
const { cookies } = props;
this.state = {
name: cookies.get('name') || 'Ben'
};
}
and also, another question is that, I can access my cookies anywhere in my project right? just like how localstorage is accessible to my project?
I hope someone can help me and I am a newbie to this. I have never used cookies before so thank you for your consideration.

I personally would rather using js-cookie to write/read cookies.
It has a very basic API:
Cookie.set('cookie_name', 'value') // will set "cookie_name" to "value"
Cookie.get('cookie_name') // will return "value"
Which means:
const login = (email, pass, cookie) => {
return (dispatch) => {
dispatch({
type: LOGIN
})
var url = api.logInApi
axios.post(url, {
email: email,
password: pass
})
.then(res => {
dispatch({
type: LOGIN_SUCCESS,
payload: res.data
})
cookies.set('token', res.data.token);
dispatch(getUserData())
})
.catch(err => dispatch({
type: LOGIN_FAILED,
payload: err
}))
}
}
Passing to the login funuction js-cookie's Cookie in the 3rd argument.
Now, you can still use the same react-cookie package to read the cookie values (I believe there shouldn't be any conflicts). Or you can replace it with js-cookie. To do that, however, you will have to pass the Cookie object to props. I probably would do that using mapStateToProps if you're using Redux or just by simply passing it through JSX

Passing to the login funuction js-cookie's Cookie in the 3rd argument.
Now, you can still use the same react-cookie package to read the cookie values (I believe there shouldn't be any conflicts). Or you can replace it with js-cookie. To do that, however, you will have to pass the Cookie object to props. I probably would do that using mapStateToProps if you're using Redux or just by simply passing it through JSX

I personally would rather using js-cookie to write/read cookies.
It has a very basic API:
Cookie.set('cookie_name', 'value') // will set "cookie_name" to "value"
Cookie.get('cookie_name') // will return "value"
Which means:
const login = (email, pass, cookie) => {
return (dispatch) => {
dispatch({
type: LOGIN
})
var url = api.logInApi
axios.post(url, {
email: email,
password: pass
})
.then(res => {
dispatch({
type: LOGIN_SUCCESS,
payload: res.data
})
cookies.set('token', res.data.token);
dispatch(getUserData())
})
.catch(err => dispatch({
type: LOGIN_FAILED,
payload: err
}))
}
}
