No login redirect on refresh.

[SnooHD]

What problem does this feature solve?

When a user logs in, the user is redirected to home.
When the page is refreshed, the user will be logged in again, and because of that, redirected to home again.
I think that this is bad UX.

What does the proposed changes look like?

I want to disable redirect in case there was a refresh.
Maybe this can be enabled / disabled by adding an option to nuxt.config?

auth: {
   refreshRedirect: false
}

Changing this in the watchState of the init function in /lib/core/auth.js should work:

// Watch for loggedIn changes only in client side
if (process.browser) {
  this.$storage.watchState('loggedIn', loggedIn => {
    if (!routeOption(this.ctx.route, 'auth', false)) {
      //disable redirect after login on refresh / first load.
      if(!this.options.refreshRedirect){
        if(loggedIn && !this.ctx.from){
           return
        }
      }

      this.redirect(loggedIn ? 'home' : 'logout')
    }
  })
}

Not sure if this is the best way of implementing it, but it works for me.

Edit:
Changed the implementation because my previous method didn't redirect on first load even when NOT logged in.
