Session management

[Andrea Asta]

I need to intercept the session destroy to close some handlers, how to do it in Spark Java?
Thanks

Hello,

Unfortunately, the session is not 'directly' available if you are using the Spark singleton for this type of usage. 

You can obtain the session, but only during a route request. eg.

HttpSession session = request.session().raw();

I would suggest using Spark within a container you have full control over. http://sparkjava.com/documentation.html#other-webserver

Starting up an quick, small, embedded Jetty yourself using sparkjava is easy. https://www.eclipse.org/jetty/documentation/9.4.x/embedding-jetty.html

This way you have full control over Session Management; adding hooks for create and destroy are trivial with listeners.

Happy to hear another way if one does exist. Anyone? (This group is pretty silent most of the time.)
