feat: remember-me

[clovertera]

• introduced new param to GenerateNewAccessToken()
• if checkbox unchecked, user gets 1 hour
• if checked, user gets 14 days

I may continue trying today to implement a checker func that login form can use to check for current cookie, get the username from id in cookie as well as remember bool, and then autofill login form with username if remember is true - probably not viable just coming up with ideas for it

[BoYanZh]

we should use that config value for remember

so in line 67 timeToExpire = config.Conf.JWTExpireSeconds ?
sorry I think I'm a bit confused, could you explain in more detail a bit?

[BoYanZh]

yes

and I think we do not need that checker function for now, we may do that later, it can be implemented in pure frontend

oh really? i thought frontend cannot access cookies in localstorage so it would have to be in backend

[BoYanZh]

cookies and localstorage are two things. These JWT cookies are HttpOnly so they can not be accessed by js directly. But we can store the username in localstorage after success login, at that time, we request /users/me to get the username and store it in localstorage.
