NextAuth: How to protect route groups without middleware?

Because I'm not using SSR, I don't have access to middlewares.

My first idea was moving

useSession({required: true})

useSession({required: true})

up, from my pages to my layout.

But that's not working out because

useSession()

useSession()

only works within

<SessionProvider> {children} </SessionProvider>

<SessionProvider> {children} </SessionProvider>

.

Does that mean I need to create another wrapper between

<SessionProvider>

<SessionProvider>

and my pages?

Like:

<SessionProvider>
  <AuthChecker> // runs useSession({required: true})
    {children}
  </AuthChecker>
</SessionProvider>

<SessionProvider>
  <AuthChecker> // runs useSession({required: true})
    {children}
  </AuthChecker>
</SessionProvider>

And run

useSession({required: true})

useSession({required: true})

inside

AuthChecker

AuthChecker

? Or is there a better way?
