Delete the session on browser close in nodejs

It is possible to delete the session in node js when the browser closes?

I want to have the check that if the user did not select the keep me login checkbox and then closes the window. He should asked to re login.

You can write your own session delete function on event 'disconnect'

socketServer.sockets.on('connection', function onSocket(client) {
    client.on('disconnect', function() {
        console.log("disconnect");
        // some code
    });
    -----
});

That's a cookie-specific setting: If you store the session data in a session-only cookie, it will disappear when the browser closes.

See this answer to make a browser-session cookie with express: Node.js/Express.js session management cookie to be session cookie
