I am using a plugin that allows users to auth using my own oAuth system. I figured out that I can not set an HttpOnly cookie across domains from the response header, so I am trying to figure out if there is a hook within NodeBB that will allow me to set a cookie. My oAuth system resides on a different domain. I could duplicate it on the current domain, but would really like to avoid it. Can anyone offer any help?
You can set cookies with res.cookie: https://expressjs.com/en/api.html#res.cookie
Depending on whether you want that cookie set only on a certain route or on all routes, you might need to register an express middleware.
Thank you @PitaJ . I'm unsure which file in the NodeBB repo to adjust if I want to add a cookie to the response though. I'm fairly new to express rendered templates. Would you recommend me working in the render.js file?
You should be able to do it within your plugin. What have you tried?
