How to use subscriptions-transport-ws with passport and express-session

问题

I'm using a passport local strategy that works well with express:

passport.use(localStrategy);
passport.serializeUser((user, done) => done(null, JSON.stringify(user)));
passport.deserializeUser((obj, done) => done(null, JSON.parse(obj)));
app.use(passport.initialize());
app.use(passport.session());

This localStrategy is doing a Mongoose call to get the user based on his pubKey and I guess that request.user is populated by this way.

I setup my graphql endpoint like this:

app.use('/graphql', bodyParser.json(), graphqlExpress(request => ({
  debug: true,
  schema,
  context: {
    user: request.user,
    req: request,
  },
  formatError: (e) => {
    console.log(JSON.stringify(e, null, 2));
    return e;
  },
})));

And my subscriptions this way:

const ws = createServer(app);

// Run the server
ws.listen(settings.APP_PORT, () => {
  console.log(`App listening on port ${settings.APP_PORT}!`);
  // Set up the WebSocket for handling GraphQL subscriptions
  new SubscriptionServer({
    execute,
    subscribe,
    schema,
    onConnect: (connectionParams, webSocket) => {
      console.log(webSocket.upgradeReq);
      return { user: connectionParams };
    },
  }, {
    server: ws,
    path: '/subscriptions',
  });
});

My session is working well on graphql queries and mutations. But not with my subscriptions.

My goal is to have access to my user session in my subscription resolver context. I may need to access something like request.user in onConnect to populate the context, but I don't know how to do.

So after some tinkering I've figured out that what you need to do is basically run the everything that recreates the passport for the socket's upgradeReq by re-running the middleware:

// Start with storing the middleware in constants
const passportInit = passport.initialize();
const passportSession = passport.session();
app.use(passportInit);
app.use(passportSession);

...
// Now populate the request with the upgradeReq using those constants
onConnect: (connectionParams, webSocket) => new Promise((resolve) => {
  passportInit(webSocket.upgradeReq, {}, () => {
    passportSession(webSocket.upgradeReq, {}, () => {
      resolve(webSocket.upgradeReq);
    });
  });
}),

If you are using an express-session you need to add that to the above.
