my index.js file an node js file looks like this below
const express = require('express');
const path = require('path');
const bodyParser = require('body-parser');
const cookieParser = require('cookie-parser');
let cryptr = require('cryptr');
let localStorage = require('node-localstorage');
cryptr = new cryptr('myTotalySecretKey');
const jwt = require('jsonwebtoken');
var dir = path.join(__dirname, 'public');
const app = express();
app.use(cookieParser());
app.use(express.static(dir));
app.use(bodyParser.urlencoded({ extended: true }));
app.use(bodyParser.json());
app.use(express.static(__dirname + 'public'));
var mysql = require('mysql');
var connection = mysql.createConnection({
host: 'localhost',
user: 'trello',
password: 'trello',
database: 'trello'
});
connection.connect(function (err) {
if (!err) {
console.log("Database is connected");
} else {
console.log("Error while connecting with database");
}
});
module.exports = connection;
app.post('/Authenticate', (req, res) => {
let email = req.body.email;
let password = req.body.password;
let sql = 'select * from users where email = ?';
let values = [[email]];
connection.query(sql, [values], function (err, result) {
if (err) throw err;
if (result.length > 0) {
decryptedString = cryptr.decrypt(result[0].password);
if (password == decryptedString) {
console.log('user is logged in: ');
jwt.sign({ result }, 'secretkey', (err, token) => {
console.log('token = ' + token);
res.cookies('email', req.body.email);
});
return res.redirect('/home.html');
} else {
res.redirect('/login.html');
}
}
});
});
app.listen(3000);
but i am not able to set cookies to the client side i.e on the browser, i used res.cookie(key, value) but it is not working an anyone guide why it is happening, i am pretty new to node js and express js
