How will you handle session when it expires

@if(auth()->check())
    Hello {{ auth()->user()->name }} | <a href="{{ route('auth.logout') }}">Logout</a>
@else
    <a href="{{ route('auth.login') }}">Login</a>
@endif

@SaeedPrez ,

Is that possible to let the user inform first to show message or alert saying "You sesssion has expired you must logged in again" then click ok redirect to Login page ?

Thank you in advance.

the client cannot know that the session has expired on the server.

There is a package called caffeine that pings the server in the background to keep the session going however this can needlessly tie up server resources.

I guess you could create a JavaScript timer that would warn the user and after X minutes log the user out and redirect to login page.

@SaeedPrez, the problem with this is when the user for some reason has more than one tab open. One tab times out and closes the session. The other window that the user is working in is then timed out for apparently no reason.

@snapey indeed it's not a good solution, but it could be improved... maybe keep a timestamp of the users last "real" server request and the JS would send an ajax request to the server and check that timestamp before logging the user out.

Hi Guys,

Have you experience this already ? this is my problem I always get error.
