Setting cookies/sessions

[sajoku]

I'm trying to authenticate against a backend but am not sure on how to implement setting the http_cookie. (I think it should be handled by afnetworking itself?). The authentication itself works and while the app stays in the foreground I am authenticated. When I close the app the session seems to be cleared.

AFMotion::Client.build_shared(Web.base_url) do
  header "Accept", "application/json"

  response_serializer :json
end

And in my request:

  AFMotion::Client.shared.get(url, data) do |response|
    blk.call(response)
  end

Or
AFMotion::Client.shared.post(url, data) do |response|
blk.call(response)
end

I can't figure out where to set the cookie header for the requests. Should I need to and if so where/how to configure this?

You should google around about NSHTTPCookieStorage and AFNetworking

Maybe http://stackoverflow.com/questions/14387662/afnetworking-persisting-cookies-automatically ?

If you use AFMotion::SessionClient, you can use configure a NSURLSessionConfiguration to use a default cookie storage

Thanks @clayallsopp this was easier than I thought.
Fixed it with http://stackoverflow.com/questions/14387662/afnetworking-persisting-cookies-automatically .
Calling save cookies after authentication and load cookies on every subsequent request.
