Is it possibile to use CorceRedirectTo200 in master?

I'm using it like this:

ab.Config.Paths.RootURL = os.Getenv("SITE_URL")
ab.Config.Storage.Server = database
ab.Config.Storage.SessionState = sessionStore
ab.Config.Storage.CookieState = cookieStore
ab.Config.Modules.LogoutMethod = "GET"
ab.Config.Core.ViewRenderer = defaults.JSONRenderer{}
ab.Config.Core.Redirector = &defaults.Redirector{CorceRedirectTo200: true}
defaults.SetCore(&ab.Config, true, false)

but still I have a GET -> localhost/auth/logout -> redirected to -> /.

Why?

How to disable redirect and just use 200?

Your problem is that the call to defaults.SetCore overrides your redirector you just set up :p

@aarondl long time to respond I know.

I inverted lines from this:

ab.Config.Paths.RootURL = os.Getenv("SITE_URL")
ab.Config.Storage.Server = database
ab.Config.Storage.SessionState = sessionStore
ab.Config.Storage.CookieState = cookieStore
ab.Config.Modules.LogoutMethod = "GET"
ab.Config.Core.ViewRenderer = defaults.JSONRenderer{}
ab.Config.Core.Redirector = &defaults.Redirector{CorceRedirectTo200: true} // <--
defaults.SetCore(&ab.Config, true, false)

to this:

ab.Config.Paths.RootURL = os.Getenv("SITE_URL")
ab.Config.Storage.Server = database
ab.Config.Storage.SessionState = sessionStore
ab.Config.Storage.CookieState = cookieStore
ab.Config.Modules.LogoutMethod = "GET"
ab.Config.Core.ViewRenderer = defaults.JSONRenderer{}
defaults.SetCore(&ab.Config, true, false)
ab.Config.Core.Redirector = &defaults.Redirector{CorceRedirectTo200: true} // <--

and the problem is still there:

I still have a GET -> localhost/auth/logout -> redirected to -> /.

Why?

Isn't ab.Config.Core.Redirector = &defaults.Redirector{CorceRedirectTo200: true} setting a config in the &ab.Config which I will use after in defaults.SetCore(&ab.Config, true, false)?

Authboss is great but this config is sometimes too complicated for newbies and simple people like me. :(

Ok. After small investigation I understood the problem is this line: https://github.com/volatiletech/authboss/blob/master/defaults/responder.go#L44.

The func isAPIRequest() because I was trying with Postman without Content-Type.

The problem now is I have errore on login, on logout (line 103 of responder.go: body, mime, err := r.Renderer.Render(req.Context(), "redirect", data)) because I think my Renderer struct is missing.

Little news:

I was able to make it work like this:

defaults.SetCore(&ab.Config, true, false)
ab.Config.Core.Redirector = &defaults.Redirector{Renderer: &defaults.JSONRenderer{}, CorceRedirectTo200: true}

but still don't know why with defaults.SetCore() I have FormValueName: "redir".

Is there a doc somewhere?

I can write it if I can understand.
