Http request redirect and cookie handling in node.js

QUESTION

Http request redirect and cookie handling in node.js

Asked 2020-Apr-23 at 11:03

I am writing an application in node.js which will need to make http requests to external websites, and will need to include the ability to login and manage the cookies from these sites so that the session id is always present in any subsequent request headers.

When performing similar tasks in Java, this was straightforward using the java.net.CookieHandler & java.net.CookieManager, together with java.net.HttpURLConnection to make the requests (I can provide sample code for this is it's useful, but don't want to confuse this thread too much for now since the focus should be on the node.js implementation): every time a request is made, the cookie is correctly updated and maintained based on the Set-Cookie response headers as expected.

For the node.js application I am attempting to use restler for httq requests ^3.2.2, and cookie-manager ^0.0.19. This seems to require manually setting the cookie in the request header when sending each request, and updating the cookie based on the response headers whenever a request is completed. Sample code for a login request:

1) To prevent automatic redirect follow-up with POST, I had to add "followRedirects: false" to the initial request options, and then manually resubmit a GET request if the response code was one of [301,302,303].

2) Since redirects are being done manually, I was able to manually set the cookie based on the new domain on each request.

3) There was no need to extract values from each "Set-cookie" header and append them into a single string - cookie-manager does this automatically.

Install Restler

Restler uses [Composer](http://getcomposer.org/) to manage its dependencies. First, download a copy of composer.phar. It can be kept in your project folder or ideally in usr/local/bin to use it globally for all your projects. If you are on Windows, you can use the composer [windows installer](https://getcomposer.org/Composer-Setup.exe) instead.
You may install Restler by running the create project command in your terminal. Replace {projectName} with your actual project name. It will create a folder with that name and install Restler. After installing Composer, download the [latest version]() of the Restler framework and extract its contents into a directory on your server. Next, in the root of your Restler project, run the php composer.phar install (or composer install) command to install all the framework’s dependencies. This process requires Git to be installed on the server to successfully complete the installation. If you want to update the Restler framework, you may issue the php composer.phar update command.
If you do not want the additional formats and BDD tools you can include > --no-dev to enforce exclusion of dev packages.
If you want to try the bleading edge v3 branch or any of the feature > branches include 3.x-dev or dev-features/html in the above command
We have two options to create your own restler api server.
Most convenient option is using application templates such as [Restler Application](https://github.com/Luracast/Restler-Framework) which has integrations with many packages to help us with the business logic as well. If you choose this option, select a branch in that repository and proceed with the instructions available there.
Create a project from scratch so that you have full control over every aspect of your application. If you choose this option, follow along with the steps below. create a folder to hold your project and open it in the terminal. run composer init and follow along to create composer.json when it is asking for dependencies, type restler/framework and ^5 for the version constraint. alternatively, you can leave it blank and create the composer.json first and then run composer require restler/framework:^5
