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.

New code which works (combining fixes 1,2,3 above):
