I have a php-joomla server giving an Angular app a user session. When the user wishes to logout, I can make a GET request to the php server and ask the server to logout and destroy the session. Although I don't want to rely on just the request to logout the user, in the event that the connection may not be reliable. I thought I would be able to find the session in the client app through a cookie or in session / local storage. Although upon looking they seem to be completely empty of any data regarding the user session.
window.sessionStorage // => {length: 0}
window.localStorage // => {length: 0}
document.cookie.split(';') // => [""]
Methods Used in PHP-Joomla
// Sign In
$auth = & JAuthentication::getInstance();
$credentials = array('username' => $username, 'password' => $password);
$response = $auth->authenticate($credentials, $options);
// Sign Out
$session - JFactory::getSession();
$session->destroy();
How does the php-joomla server store it's session data in the client application and how can I destroy it from the client side?
