I’m trying make authorization/authentication graphql subscriptions with elixir and absinthe using cookies and I used the follow link:
I’m trying authenticate the user for subscribe the right topic but I don’t have access to the cookies in the subscription connection. Why?
After I saw the follow link:
And in my user_socket.ex I pass the user_id as query param, this works, but it’s not secure at all… I can pass the id that I want !!!
Can someone help me?
@moduledoc false
use Phoenix.Socket
use Absinthe.Phoenix.Socket,
schema: MyAppGraphQL.Schema
## Channels
# channel "room:*", MyAppWeb.RoomChannel
# Socket params are passed from the client and can
# be used to verify and authenticate a user. After
# verification, you can put default assigns into
# the socket that will be set for all channels, ie
#
# {:ok, assign(socket, :user_id, verified_user_id)}
#
# To deny connection, return `:error`.
#
# See `Phoenix.Token` documentation for examples in
# performing token verification on connect.
def connect(%{"user_id" => user_id}, socket) do
case current_user(user_id) do
nil ->
:error
current_user ->
socket =
Absinthe.Phoenix.Socket.put_options(socket,
context: %{
current_user: current_user
}
)
{:ok, socket}
end
end
def connect(_, _), do: :error
defp current_user(user_id), do: MyApp.Accounts.lookup_user_with_company(user_id)
# Socket id's are topics that allow you to identify all sockets for a given user:
#
# def id(socket), do: "user_socket:#{socket.assigns.user_id}"
#
# Would allow you to broadcast a "disconnect" event and terminate
# all active sockets and channels for a given user:
#
# MyAppWeb.Endpoint.broadcast("user_socket:#{user.id}", "disconnect", %{})
#
# Returning `nil` makes this socket anonymous.
def id(_socket), do: nil

WebSockets do not have cookies. All they have is parameters. You have to use a token by which you can get user id and user after that.
There is an example here Phoenix.Token — Phoenix v1.8.8 how to use
Phoenix.Tokenwith sockets.Last Post!
