How to create Protected Routes and Authentication with React Router V6 2023

[@vPopovPHX]

This video is just pure gold! Straightforward, concise, without any useless information. Amazing!

[@kodieCode]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@samontefrankamirsong.5474]

You deserved more subscribers. You are a good example on what the developers should follow. I haven't followed yours but I created something that is similar and in tsx.

[@kodieCode]

I appreciate that!

[@destinyforeveryone3659]

This video was exactly what I needed!! I've been confused with authentication and the bunch of different ways to do it and a video that cuts all the extra stuff and shows you the basics of how it works was perfect. Thanks so much, hope you make more videos was sad to see this was your latest on in a year.

[@kodieCode]

thanks for the comment. More coming in October now I have more time

[@MohammedHusainmobikira]

sir you should create this in full playlist format that we can get more clearity for beginners its bit hard to understand everything, you should also connect it with backend that what routes are set in backend etc.

[@MohammedHusainmobikira]

bcz in react js authentication is most confusing part for beginners

Excellent content!!!!! Thank you very much 🤓 I would love to see another tutorial with your implementation of local storage.

[@kodieCode]

Great suggestion!

[@wdtrap]

@@kodieCode it looks like maybe you're not making these videos anymore, but consider this comment as another vote for a video on the local storage

Good work!

[@alexmuiruri502]

Hi @kodie, Great content here. However, I'd prefer to show the login page if a user tries to access a private page

[@kodieCode]

This is easy enough to do with creating a default route pointing at the login page. That means any route not created based on their status, will show that page instead.

[@jonasmunkchristensen7384]

Cool video! Simple and well explained! It would be very helpful to see an implementation with local storage as well as role-based authorization. Regardless, thanks for the awesome content!

[@kodieCode]

Great suggestion!

[@yourlinuxguy]

Really nice video, Thankyou.

[@kodieCode]

Glad you liked it!

[@isaacjon]

Great content. Please release a video about refresh and access tokens

[@kodieCode]

Thanks for the suggestion. I'll be working on that video soon

[@imatrules]

Hey @@kodieCode any update?

[@JasonJamesMoore]

Is it possible to work things this way using createBrowserRouter. Interested to understand this more, and see if I can use child routes with this kind of setup.

[@kodieCode]

It is, yes, React Router has moved on a bit since this tutorial but it's still relevant.

[@zstudio6127]

thanks you for this tut

Please I need a tutorial on how to use localstorage with this

[@kodieCode]

This was with LocalStorage. I'm working on a JWT version

[@VayunEkbote]

I suggest that you make code along tutorials, with more catchy thumbnails. Your content is great, you will grow fast.

[@kodieCode]

Thanks for the tip

[@hankpham4431]

can you make a new video on how not to make user logout whenever the page refresh?

[@kodieCode]

It's as simple as looking up the user details from the localStorage on a page reload.

[@webhybrid809]

can you help me to do same thing in next.js, i have to do with user role based , their tho 2 user role , so how to do in next.js with typescript?

[@kodieCode]

I don't use next.js as it's best IMO for websites and I'm mainly working on backend and admin panels

[@holakonoob]

heyy kodie how about make a simple tutorial that is in ts not js and handle auth via jwt cookie not token to be more secure then use R.R.D v6 to protect the routes

[@kodieCode]

Great suggestion. Thanks for the feedback.

[@holakonoob]

​@@kodieCode Btw remember my words your channel will grow super fast cause everything is good the audio the video's quality and also the content keep up the good work

[@justin9494]

How do we add google auth to this?

[@kodieCode]

I'm planning to do a video on various third party Auth libraries including Google very soon.

[@justin9494]

@@kodieCode Thanks!

[@lokkki9]

@@kodieCode waiting for the video man!!

[@mahletmahi-r5e]

yes pls do that user key and session expire thingi we do want it

[@kodieCode]

It's possible to add a user lookup to the database on page load but I will add more to this soon

[@dchudziak]

Isn't this method easy to bypass? User can easily change ahte isAuthenticated state or isPrivate consts. Is it okay to protect client routes like this and just protect private data on the backend?

[@kodieCode]

In theory. the video was meant to help people that were struggling with the exact structure of routes and private content. There are many other things that should be used for security

[@IXBoyI]

why on refresh it does not hold the private links? It resets and I have to click on "login" again so they pop up

[@kodieCode]

This is because in that tutorial we are not storing that the user is authenticated in the localStorage or a cookie. This means a refresh of the page restarts the state. I am working on a video to expand on this authentication method and show how to start storing user details including if the user is logged in so that a returning user might be automatically authenticated

[@alonsoestevam]

Why are the extension files `.js` instead of `.jsx`?

[@saarza9991]

Doesn't matter it's a framework

[@kodieCode]

It won't make an difference.

[@njordhoder]

This only dynamicly shows the menu items. If a user is not logged in it still can go to the private route by typing it in. There is no redirect.

[@kodieCode]

The routes are only accessible when logged in as the routes are only defined when authenticated therefore not accessible. If a user not logged in tries to directly access a private route they will be shown the default controller

[@njordhoder]

Wow never thought of setting it up like that. Makes absolute sense. An aha moment for me. Thanks for the reply.

[@kodieCode]

No problem. The great thing about an overall Auth controller with useContext is that you can make just about anything easily conditional on the user being logged in.

[@parker7721]

But what If the user enters to that route from a different tab, he is logged in but since the state of user logged in is only on the other tab, now he wont have access? @@kodieCode

[@satishksharma]

This is okay but how can we show 404 page and not authenticated user according to condition.

[@ASOCMARCTKD]

How can I Implement roles of users?

[@kodieCode]

You would just need to add additional layers to the user object and define that in the routes

[@goffardeveloper2056]

how to add role user sir

[@kodieCode]

You would need to add an additional object against the user to define their role and then load the routes depending on what that role is allowed to access.
