sometime sails js session does not destroy

I have create a web application using sails js. Following is logout function.

logout: function(req, res) {
      req.session.destroy(function(err) {
           res.redirect('/');
      });
}

Sometime user does not logout from one click. But anyway user is redirecting to my home page. Then I have to click again logout button to logout the user.

Try this,

logout: function(req, res) {
        // clear login sessions here
        req.session.destroy(function(err) {
          setTimeout(function(){
            return res.redirect('/login');
          }, 2500); // redirect wait time 2.5 seconds
        });
      }

Just giving a delay for sails js to clear the session, Working fine for me...

Send them to a logout page instead of a redirect or put a timeout in the callback.

logout: function(req, res) {
      req.session.destroy(function(err) {
           return res.view('/logout');
      });
}

or

logout: function(req, res) {
      req.session.destroy(function(err) {
           timeout(function(){
               return res.redirect('/');
           }, 1000);
      });
}
