Question: How can I use multiple sessions at the same time about surrealdb.js HOT 3 CLOSED

In #95 I'm adding an HTTP client, you could have multiple http clients with different credentials

from surrealdb.js.

Alright, short update.

I managed to fix this by opening a new connection to SurrealDB on every request and attaching the db object to ctx.state. Which isn't great of course (would be nicer to just use 1 with different auth states as proposed here: #61).

The reason why I mentioned that this would be slow is because... it was. I used const db = new Surreal("http://localhost:8000/rpc"); to create the connection. Turns out that this is several seconds slower than using const db = new Surreal("http://127.0.0.1:8000/rpc"); for some reason.

With the faster speed, invoking a new connection everytime is fine for my use case. I'll leave this open for now in case anyone has a better solution. But feel free to close this if you feel that this isn't relevant anymore :)

Closing this as a duplicate of #61

Anyways, to help you out: This is not possible over WebSockets as of now. The client drivers for each language are merely a representation of the APIs out there, and the WS API in SurrealDB currently does not support this :)
