In general Wappler offers an amazing array of methods for manipulating variables of all types within App Connect and Server Connect. However there remains two issues which I feel could be improved.
-
Server Connect manages Server Sessions, APP connect also offers session management however these are browsers sessions. This can lead to confusion among users, particularly those new to wappler who do not realise the difference
-
These is no way within App Connect to directly access a server session variable which leads users to revert to embedding code, for example </php echo $_SESSION[‘myvar’];?>
My feature request is that a method is implemented in App connect which allows for the direct access of session vars from app connect
Perhaps a new set variable option (or enhancement of the current version) where the name of a session variable could be input and the value returned from the server
This would also need a method .refresh() available within the action picker to allow the variable to be re-synchronised with the server where necessary
In addition, I suggest the session manger by renamed browser session manager to remove confusion
NOTE
An additional server session manager to keep app connect and server connect synchronised in real time would be even better but I am prepared to compromise on this one
