Why is the modified handshake not being sent?

Question

Node.js

io.set('authorization', function (handshake, accept) {
   ///.......
   handshake.user='some string';
   accept(null, true);

});

below

io.on('connection', function(socket){
        console.log('a user connected');
        console.log(socket.handshake.user);
        // .......
});

In the console I see

a user connected
undefined

But why undefined if it should be some string?

Answer 1

I don’t remember exactly, but it seems I did it through io.use and not io.set

Answer 2

Hooray. You need to knock on the object like this

io.on('connection', function(socket){
        console.log('a user connected');
        console.log(socket.request.user);
        // .......
});
