best way to manage sessions/cookies with chalice?

[mowliv]

Hi guys,

What's the easiest way to have sessions or at least cookie management in a python chalice web app? Have looked around but haven't found a good solution. Am using AWS Cognito for user authorization and working on how to tie it in with sessions. Saw #717 from 2018 but hoping there's something better than that by now.

(I did try asking this Q on stack exchange and also the Gitter chat area, but got no replies.)

Hi, sorry for the late reply. Chalice doesn't provide any built-in way of managing session/cookies. This is something you'd have to manage yourself, as shown in the issue you linked. I typically see people use Chalice as just the Web API (and not the front end) and using the JWT (or similar) auth tokens directly.
