Logout Icon

  • This icon will navigate us to the login page.

Upon selecting the logout option, the system redirects users to the login page and clears the local storage as a security measure.

Logout Code Snippet

 logout(){
   localStorage.clear();
   this.router.navigateByUrl('/auth/login')
  }

Code Description

The logout function, when invoked by a user, is responsible for terminating the user's session. The two main actions performed by this function are:

Clearing Local Storage

  • The line localStorage.clear(); ensures that any data stored in the web browser's localStorage, which could include information related to the user's session or authentication such as tokens or user preferences, is removed.

Navigating to the Login Page

  • The subsequent line this.router.navigateByUrl('/auth/login'); utilizes a router service to direct the user to the '/auth/login' route. This navigation effectively redirects the user to the login page, facilitating a seamless transition after the logout process.
