You have an app where users login and authenticate with a server, but is that all? What if there are different levels of authorization based on assigned user roles? In this tutorial you will learn how to React Router v6 to set up role-based user authorization for different parts of your React application. This tutorial uses a Node JS backend that was created in my Node JS for Beginners full course found here: ruclips.net/video/f2EqECiTBL8/видео.html - If you're just starting out with React, I suggest learning the basics first in my React JS for Beginners full course here: ruclips.net/video/RVFAyFWO4go/видео.html
"src/context/AuthProvider.js Line 5:32: 'children' is missing in props validation react/prop-types" I am getting this error. Can someone please help me to resolve this
I am encountering a problem... Using protected routes, if the user is not logged in, I redirect to login page. But now google has marked my login page as canonical to the order page, because google crawler is not logged in. Any way to sole this issue? Thank you. It is an amazing tutorial.

This is EXACTLY what I've been looking for over the past year. I've been stitching most of this together on my own over that time since I started my web dev journey but there was a main issue I had with JWTs and best practice for storing those (AT & RT) - you've cleared it up and then some! Thank you so much. Liked, subbed, belled - you seem like you know what we need to see. There are too many 'guides' and 'courses' that skip over the most important parts often pertaining to best practices such as storing JWT in localstorage for simplicity or because they assume you don't care about security. Very nice to have all in one best practice / security.
What a detailed and explanatory video about role wise routes. It feels like an personal tutor who sits besides & guides through the path. Hats Off for your efforts. Blessings. 👍
Your RUclips channel is so valuable its insane, you don't cut a single corner in your demos. I've been studying for almost a year and feel like this series has been the icing on the cake for my job hunt right now
Dave, I must say I like the style and pace of the videos. I find it really useful when you explain why we should use something unlike some other creators that say just use this.
I've been struggling with these access control in react You have also taught me how to add the layout of a page like a "millionaire", I was doing it the dumb way
Hi Dave, thank you very much for this awesome tutorial series, it helped me a lot. Could you please tell me how to keep context from "clearing" when opening link in a new tab. When i use it seems that the context is lost and auth becomes empty in RequireAuth so it redirects me to the login page. Any help would be much appreciated. Thank you
This is by far the best tutorial I seen on the internet regarding the login/authorization related stuff of react. You never skipped a single piece of code which other youtuber normally do. The way you explain the things is really awesome and this helps me substantially in my job search.Thanks Dave for this great content🙂
Thanks Dave, this tutorial helped me set up some simple protected routes for an app I'm working on. Your other React Router videos have been useful as well!
Hi Dave! 1st of all: Thanks infinitely for your work, your constant contributions to the community and your magnificent skills to teach and share your knowledge and experience. 2nd: I had written a long message to see if you could give me some perspective to sort out an issue I run into when implementing RequireAuth component and I figured out the issue when writing it down to explain it to you just now. You might not know, but you just helped me (again, eheh)! Thanks Dave!
Glad to hear that! What you did is kind of like the "rubber duck" theory where programmers explain the issue to something on their desk which helps the thought process. Teaching helps me do the same thing! 💯
@@mauroconsolani2576 If that issue is about the auth context variable loosing its value between refreshing the page I would kinda beg you for the solution :P
@@sum41greekfun Hi!! I've been trying to track down my code but couldn't locate if my issue was with the context variable. If I had to guess, on refresh you should check if you have a JWT token stored in your cookies. If so, send a request to you backend with the data you need to fill your auth context variable and recover the "state" of the app.
Just so you know youre a life saver. Your tutorial videos are always on point and helps me sort out most of the things I need to know. Keep doing what you do🤟🤟🔥🔥
Hi Dave, It's a wonderfully explained lecture about routes so far I have seen. Really appericiate your efforts and the way you are teaching beginners. Thank you so much as this really helped me in my project.
Hi Dave, I have a question. You specified separating concerns between routing and authorization, but what about navigation links that utilize rrd's Link component? I was thinking of conditionally rendering navigation Links based on the user's role. I wasn't sure if this was still against the convention you speak of. I would hope not, but wanted to see!
I absolutely love your tutorials! They are so insightful and correctly paced. The only thing I was wondering is if you could do this same website without axios? Or is that not a good idea? I am currently building a react app for my capstone project in college, and I am not using axios.
You can just use fetch. It doesn't have all of the nice features built-in that axios does though. Axios is a lightweight dependency that will not bog down your project. Given the choice, I would use axios.
Somehow my auth would not change update after setAuth is called. However, it updates if I browse through my app 1~2 times. After hours of searching on google, I solved this with useEffect, put useNavigate inside there and made auth as dependency. So when auth is updated by setAuth, useEffect navigated the user. It works perfectly fine now but I wonder why yours worked. I went to your source code and copied the code almost exactly but it did not work as intended.
The "almost exactly" might be it - hard to compare if not exact. React Router has had some updates. Check my source package.json to see if you were using the same version or maybe an update is the difference.
Dave this tutorial is amazing complete your node tutorial and now doing this. JWT and authorization was daunting but your tutorials made them very easy to grasp cant wait to incorporate this into my full stack projects! do you have a discord or anything like that?
Hi Dave, I watched few times these series and learn already a lot but I have got a question - you are passing the data from the server to the context. After reloading the page I got a new state which is an empty state and thats a reason that I have to log in again through the login component. What is the best idea to keep state after the login and do not loose it when the page is reloaded ? Also in the network payload I can see the password wich has been written during the sign in the application - is any chance to hide it? To be honest I learn front end dev and I am a beginner with node but literally I just want to know more what is going on on the backend side :D Thank you so much for your tutorials. BDW do you have a slack community or discord etc? I would join to that kind of group under your mentoring :D
Great questions! 1) If you continue in this series, there is a "Persist Login" tutorial that handles the reloading and reauthorization. You will always lose app state when you reload, but that video shows how to maintain a user login. 2) You could possibly encrypt client side, but this isn't common - if there is a major concern here about your network traffic being hacked, you should use a secure connection - say a VPN if available. Also, https is a must. ...You're welcome and yes, I just opened up a Discord community here: discord.gg/neKghyefqh
I’m a bit confused, I have a login form that connects to sql db then response is 200 if user exists. Why would I need a token if validation is already achieved? Is this a silly question?
You tutorial have helped a lot thanks for providing this content especially this series. I just wanted to ask how a can use this same role-based routing approach in my react-native application
Hi Dave, this is exactly what I needed! Thanks a lot!. I just noticed that if I create a user that is not authorized for certain page and I look for that page directly in the browser search bar instead of using a button like you do, I get redirected to the home page, instead of the unauthorized one. Do you know why is this happening and how could I change it? Once again, thanks a lot for the help!!

Hi Dave,
What if user is at home page and uses brower back button.
Will he get navigate to login page or will remain at home page?

You are one the best teachers out there, I love the way you use stories to explain from both a client, user or developer point of view
