Gin: Redirect Not Working

[cyantarek]

Hello, I'm using a custom middleware that will check if user data is in the session, or not. If not in the session or nil, it will redirect to login URL. But even the user session data is nil, the middleware doesn't redirect, rather go to the next handler and causes errors. here's my code

func Authorize() gin.HandlerFunc {
    return func(c *gin.Context) {
        session := sessions.Default(c)
        loginUser := session.Get("user")
        if loginUser == nil {
            c.Redirect(http.StatusMovedPermanently, "/auth/login")
        }
    }
}

And here's my middleware position:
r.GET("/", middleware.Authorize(), indexHandler)

The loginUser is nil, but the middleware doesn't redirect to "/auth/login" rather goes to the indexHandler. Why this happens?

@cyantarek what' mean? your mean is execute it?

@cyantarek after redirecting you should abort

if loginUser == nil {
        c.Redirect(http.StatusMovedPermanently, "/auth/login")
        c.Abort()
}
