Description

I'm not 100% sure if this is an issue with fastity/session or fastify/http-proxy.

I can get values from the session on normal routes. For example.

export default async function getImage(request, reply) {
  const id = request.params["*"];
  try {
    const access_token = request?.session?.get('access_token') || null;

However, when I try in the preHandler in http-proxy plugin, it doesn't return anything, it's undefined.

fastify.register(fastifyHttpProxy, {
        upstream:
          process.env.NODE_ENV === "production"
            ? "http://xxxxxx:8080"
            : "https:/xxxxxx/v1/graphql", // Replace with your Docker container's address
        prefix: "/hasura", // The prefix for the proxy route
        rewritePrefix: "/",
        preHandler: (request, reply, done) => {
          const access_token = request?.session?.get('access_token') || null;
          console.log("Got access token from session", access_token);
          done();
        },

I'm setting the trustProxy to true, but still nothing. Like I say - all other routes work.

Any ideas?

Expected Behavior

The session should be available in the preHandler on @fastify-httpproxy

Thanks for reporting!

Can you provide steps to reproduce? We often need a reproducible example, e.g. some code that allows someone else to recreate your problem by just copying and pasting it. If it involves more than a couple of different file, create a new repository on GitHub and add a link to that.
