Session-only cookies, on the other hand, stores information in the browser memory, and is available for the duration of the browser session. In other words, the data stored inside a session cookie is available from the time of storage until the browser is closed. Moving from page to page during this time does not erase the data.
How can I achieve this using Express.js?
The following is what I wanted (sort of). When I close browser the information is gone.
var express = require('express');
var app = express.createServer();
var MemoryStore = require('connect/middleware/session/memory');
app.use(express.bodyDecoder());
app.use(express.cookieDecoder());
app.get('/remember', function(req, res) {
res.cookie('rememberme', 'yes', { expires: new Date() - 1, httpOnly: true });
});
app.get('/', function(req, res){
res.send('remember: ' + req.cookies.rememberme);
});
app.listen(4000, '127.0.0.1');
