[FEATURE] Store the session ID or use cookies or JWT to prevent user logging out after refreshing.

[promehul]

Describe the bug
When I log in and refresh the page , user is logged out and we come back to the log in page.

Expected behavior
User shouldn't be logged out

Additional context
This is happening because we are no where saving the sessions id on the browser.

@achillesrasquinha I dont know whether this is a feature intentionally implemented because of security reasons or is it really a bug ?

[rupav]

We are using https://github.com/marcuswestin/store.js/ to store the credentials, username and tokenId in the browser, which gets erased after a refresh.

[promehul]

So this is not a bug ,rather a feature na?

[rupav]

Yes, not a bug, rather an implementation of store.js, which stores it in local storage if found. For persisting the token on a refresh, we have to check other options like cookies.
I Don't think currently this feature is of high priority.

Is this issue open? I could work on storing user credentials on browser cookies.
