Warning: connect.session() MemoryStore is not designed for a production environment, as it will leak memory, and will not scale past a single process
Using cookie-session
instead of express-session
solved this issue for me.
You store the session on the client and not on the server with cookies.
Simply:
- Install it with
npm install cookie-session
- Change
var session = require('express-session');
to
var session = require('cookie-session');
I hope this would help to someone who's struggling the same problem as mine .Just dug it by myself .
//-momery unleaked---------app.set('trust proxy', 1);app.use(session({cookie:{ secure: true, maxAge:60000 },store: new RedisStore(),secret: 'secret',saveUninitialized: true,resave: false}));app.use(function(req,res,next){if(!req.session){ return next(new Error('Oh no')) //handle error}next() //otherwise continue});
It's all about storing sessions, you should add a storing system that store sessions into your database. This help your app to manage sessions.
For example, in mongodb you can use connect-mongo, you should found a store package and for other databases.
https://www.npmjs.com/package/connect-mongo
const session = require('express-session');const MongoStore = require('connect-mongo')(session);app.use(session({ secret: 'foo', store: new MongoStore(options)}));
