Http Request Session Handling

[pmza...@gmail.com]

Hello,

I am wondering what the easiest way is to preserve sessions across multiple http requests.  Right now I am using 'package:flutter/http.dart' for making the requests, but it does not seem to preserve the sessions.

Thanks!

By sessions, do you mean cookies?

Hi Peter,

Thanks for reaching out!

There's a few APIs that might help:

https://docs.flutter.io/flutter/dart-io/dart-io-library.html  <== how to read and write files, etc

https://docs.flutter.io/flutter/services/PathProvider-class.html <== how to identify which directories you can use

In the meantime, I've filed a request for a simple snippet/example of how to use these together: https://github.com/flutter/flutter/issues/5392

Hi Seth!

I thought that there might be an easier way that is similar to what Android uses...

For Instance:

CookieManager.setDefault(CookieHandler.getDefault())

Maybe something easier will come out in the future.

Thanks for the help!

Currently you have to manage your own cookies, unfortunately. You're right that we should have this baked into our networking library. We're still trying to figure out exactly how we want our networking library to work (we don't like the current situation where we have two redundant libraries, for instance).

Hey Ian,

Thanks for the clarity.  

I agree it would be easier to have it all in one library.  For now I will just handle the cookies manually.

I appreciate the support!
