I'm trying to connect to a Redis server to get session data from the nuxt 3 DefineNuxtRouteMiddleware middleware without success. I created a connection to redis in the server side plugin and it works for all my api endpoints, but it doesn't seem to work for my rout-guards middleware. I try to get the connection in the code below but the connection is not defined. Am I wrong in assuming that the middleware server side execution should have access to the Redis connection

if (process.server) { let session = await RedisUtil.getConnection.get(sessionID); }

The following is redisUtil

class RedisUtil{ static get getConnection(){ return this.connection; } static set setConnection(connection){ this.connection = connection; } static async connect(config) { let redis = createClient({ url: 'redis://' config.redis.user ':' config.redis.password '@' config.redis.host ':' config.redis.port }); redis.on('error', err => console.log('Redis Client Error', err)); await redis.connect(); RedisUtil.setConnection = redis; console.log("Connected to redis"); } }

The redis plugin has been loaded into the nitro configuration

import RedisUtil from '../utils/RedisUtil'; import config from "~/server.config" export default async (NuxtApp) => { await RedisUtil.connect(config); };

nitro: { plugins: [ "~/server/plugins/redis.js" ], },

As mentioned above, I can access the redis connection in all other server-side executions, but not in the middleware. Any help on this would be greatly appreciated.
