How to interop with native code?

I have a similar use case for authentication happening outside of LiveView Native. I contributed a small change that lets you specify additional headers when instantiating the LiveView.

I use that to pass a long-lived authentication token that’s stored client-side. Phoenix verifies that and then, critically, creates a session token and puts that into the session (using put_token_in_session) which is then automatically handled by LiveView Native in subsequent requests through the web socket.

It’s the same method as is used with Phoenix Auth

Ok, then for dropping LiveView Native into an existing app, I’d need to inject the token into the LiveView Native baseUrl, then handle that token on the Phoenix side? (Eg ElixirConfChat)

And for messages from Phoenix → Native, I’m guessing it’s the LiveView().onReceive(...? Do responses to onReceive get sent over to Phoenix?

Thanks!

For LiveView Native you will set auth through session store the same way you do in JS which means you are setting a cookie with your session information. Just like in a web LiveView app you submit the form and issue a redirect from the server. This will trigger an app reconnect which will make use of the cookie store along with the session information.
