Trying to get elm ports working to maintain the session.
In index.html, the script includes the following listener:
window.addEventListener("load", function(event) {
app.ports.onSessionChange.send(localStorage.session);
}, false);
localStorage.session
looks like this (and it stays there until I've logged out):
{"email":"user@fake.com","token":"eyJhbG...","user_id":1,"handle":"me"}
The definition in Ports.elm
is:
port onSessionChange : (Value -> msg) -> Sub msg
This port is connected to Main.elm
here (let me know if I've forgotten to include some of the definitions below):
subscriptions : Model -> Sub Msg
subscriptions model =
Ports.onSessionChange sessionChange
sessionChange : Json.Decode.Value -> Msg
sessionChange value =
let
result =
Json.Decode.decodeValue sessionDecoder value
in
case result of
Ok sess ->
SetSession (Just sess)
Err err ->
SetSession Nothing
...
type alias Session =
{ email : String
, token : String
, user_id : Int
, handle : String
}
...
import Json.Decode as Decode exposing (..)
import Json.Decode.Pipeline as Pipeline exposing (decode, required)
sessionDecoder : Decode.Decoder Session
sessionDecoder =
Pipeline.decode Session
|> Pipeline.required "email" Decode.string
|> Pipeline.required "token" Decode.string
|> Pipeline.required "user_id" Decode.int
|> Pipeline.required "handle" Decode.string
...
type Msg
= NoOp
| SetSession (Maybe Session)
...
update msg model =
case msg of
SetSession session ->
case Debug.log "session = " session of
Just sess ->
({ model | session = sess } , Cmd.none)
Nothing ->
(model, Cmd.none)
Debug.log "session"
displays Nothing
in the console when the page loads, so JS is talking to elm, but the decoder seems to be failing. Any ideas?
