How can i set cookie with graphql-laravel

[frankmaruf]

I have been trying to setcookies. But I am not able to set it.

can any one please help me to set cookies to the front-end with graphql-laravel.

Somehow I feel this misses a few things related to the GraphQL part. Like, where are you doing above code? In your resolver? Middleware? etc.

I can think more surrounding code would help here.

(please paste text and not screenshots)

I am doing it in my Resolver

UserLoginMutation

class UserLoginMutation extends Mutation
{
    protected $attributes = [
        'name' => 'userLogin',
        'description' => 'Login user',
    ];
    public function type(): Type
    {
        return GraphQL::type('LoginResponse');
    }
    /** @var \App\Models\MyUserModel $user **/

    public function args(): array
    {
        return [
            'email' => [
                'name' => 'email',
                'type' => Type::nonNull(Type::string())
            ],
            "password" => [
                'name' => 'password',
                'type' => Type::nonNull(Type::string())
            ],
        ];
    }
    public function resolve($root, $args, $context, ResolveInfo $resolveInfo, Closure $getSelectFields)
    {
        $message = "";
        $user = Auth::attempt([
            'email' => $args['email'],
            'password' => $args['password']
        ]);
        if (!$user) {
            $message = "Invalid credentials";
            $response = [
                'message' => $message,
            ];
            return $response;
        }
            $user = User::where('email', $args['email'])->first();
            $token = $user->createToken('authToken')->accessToken;
            $user->save();
            $expires_in = 60*24*30;
            $message = 'Login Successfully';
            $cookie = Cookie::make('token', $token, $expires_in);
            $response = [
                'user' => $user,
                'access_token' => $token,
                'cookie' => $cookie,
                'expires_in' => $expires_in,
                'token_type' => 'Bearer',
                'message' => $message,
                // with(new \Illuminate\Http\Request)->cookie('token', $token, $expires_in, '/', 'localhost', false, true)
            ];
            return $response;
    }
    }

LoginResponseType

class LoginResponseType extends GraphQLType
{
    protected $attributes = [
        'name' => 'LoginResponse',
        'description' => 'A type of Authentication Response',
    ];

    public function fields(): array
    {
        return [
            'access_token' => [
                'type' => Type::nonNull(Type::string()),
                'description' => 'Access Token'
            ],
            'token_type' => [
                'type' => Type::nonNull(Type::string()),
                'description' => 'Token Type'
            ],
            'message' => [
                'type' => Type::string(),
                'description' => 'Message'
            ],
            'expires_in' => [
                'type' => Type::nonNull(Type::int()),
                'description' => 'Expires In'
            ],
            'user' => [
                'type' => Type::nonNull(GraphQL::type('User')),
                'description' => 'User'
            ],
            'cookie' => [
                'type' => Type::nonNull(Type::string()),
                'description' => 'Cookie'
            ],
        ];
    }
}

graphql.php

'schemas' => [
        'default' => [
            'query' => [
            ],
            'mutation' => [
                'userLogin' => App\GraphQL\Mutations\Authentication\UserLoginMutation::class,

            ],
            'types' => [
                'LoginResponse' => \App\GraphQL\Types\Authentication\LoginResponseType::class,
            ],
            // Laravel HTTP middleware
            'middleware' => [

            ],

[mfn]

    public function resolve($root, $args, $context, ResolveInfo $resolveInfo, Closure $getSelectFields)
…
            $response = [
                'user' => $user,
                'access_token' => $token,
                'cookie' => $cookie,
                'expires_in' => $expires_in,
                'token_type' => 'Bearer',
                'message' => $message,
                // with(new \Illuminate\Http\Request)->cookie('token', $token, $expires_in, '/', 'localhost', false, true)
            ];
            return $response;

To me this looks like you're returning the cookie as part of a regular GraphQL json response, so unless you've some magic code somewhere else, this won't make it part of the HTTP header response.

Is this what you, part of your HTTP header?

Than I suggest you look into the Facade Cookie:queue() and make sure you've AddQueuedCookiesToResponse active etc.

It works. Thanks.
I just added this line under the cookie variable at UserLoginMutation.php

$cookie = Cookie::make('token', $token, $expires_in);
            Cookie::queue($cookie);
            $response = [
                'user' => $user,
                'access_token' => $token,
                'expires_in' => $expires_in,
                'token_type' => 'Bearer',
                'message' => $message,
            ];

and Added this to the middleware at graphql.php

'middleware' => [
      \Illuminate\Cookie\Middleware\EncryptCookies::class,
      \Illuminate\Cookie\Middleware\AddQueuedCookiesToResponse::class,

            ],
