Fresh pattern help
Could anyone possibly help guide me to understand the 'freshest' pattern for the following, please?
When a user hits
/ I load a login page, and once he submits the form, the server generates some session data in the POST handler for /, and then redirects(send back a 303) to /chat. There is an island on /chat which needs to contain the session data. How would I redirect from the form POST handler, to the /chat page and make sure that my state is passed to the island?
In react or similar I would handle the 'form submission' in javascript and cache the returned session data before redirecting to /chat. Since fresh seems to promote the use of native forms I'm trying to learn how I would handle this situation. I'm thinking of setting a cookie in the redirect, to then be sent with the /chat GET, which I can use to return the page with session data inside. Is that common? Thanks!7 replies
