no session management being done #87

@liquidcms Thank you for reporting this, so long ago! I am now experiencing this with cordova + jDrupal 7 + ios. It still works fine for web applications and within cordova + android.
Do you have a sample of that code? |

Hey Tyler,
Been a while since I touched that project but did another last summer using jdrupal. Or I mean my very hacked up version and also tweaks in a custom module on the Drupal side. I'm reasonably sure of 2 things. 1. I'm likely doing a lot of things wrong. 2.it might have been better to just start from scratch and write my own interface layer. But I really wanted to leverage your REST code.
I can send you the entire project if you like. It's an ionic project.
Let me know if any interest.

Hi Peter ( @liquidcms ) ! Thank you for still having some belief in this project :) You were (maybe one of the last) power users over the years and I sure appreciated your feedback. With my youngest now 4 years old, I feel like I am finally coming up for some air.
That would be great. I will send you an e-mail now and perhaps we can connect through there. As for the problem itself, I've been researching it and there is a lot of noise out there about cordova + ios + cookies in general, and lots of people having problems with them persisting. I've found some potential leads (including some Drupal 7 specific ones in the Services issue queue that mention |

Older versions of cordova + ios used Luckily, there is a plugin and some slight server modification that appear to fix it:
I am now able to use cordova + ios + jDrupal for a Drupal 7 site and sessions/cookies are properly handled and maintained! @liquidcms In the hopes of closing this issue, were you having this problem with just your iOS apps, or was this also happening with Android apps and/or Web apps too? I just published a cordova + jdrupal 7 app for both Android and iOS. Not until I began the iOS publication process did I encounter session/cookie problems. All other environments worked fine (web app + same domain as D7 site, android app). |

I develop for Android first; so it would have been for that.

Older versions of cordova + ios used UIWebView (cordova-ios 5*), and now
they use WKWebView (cordova-ios 6*), which apparently has a bug with cookies
<https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=140205> . I learned about this
while browsing cordova-ios issues related to cookies
<https://github.com/apache/cordova-ios/issues?q=is%3Aissue+cookies+> .
Luckily, there is a plugin and some slight server modification that appear
to fix it:
1. install cordova-plugin-wkwebview-file-xhr
<https://github.com/oracle/cordova-plugin-wkwebview-file-xhr> .
2. set your server's Access-Control-Allow-Headers to allow Content-Type
and X-CSRF-Token (I did this in .htaccess)
I am now able to use cordova + ios + jDrupal for a Drupal 7 site and
sessions/cookies are properly handled and maintained!
@liquidcms <https://github.com/liquidcms> In the hopes of closing this
issue, were you having this problem with just your iOS apps, or was this
also happening with Android apps and/or Web apps too?
I just published a cordova + jdrupal 7 app for both Android and iOS. Not
until I began the iOS publication process did I encounter session/cookie
problems. All other environments worked fine (web app + same domain as D7
site, android app).

With the latest version of cordova and android, the dreaded cookies vs session management problems seem to be back. See my comment here for a potential solution. |
I had this same issue with jDrupal 7 and now jDrupal 8. I also see this common thread hidden in a few of the other issues posted here: there is no session management being done with jDrupal.
If i do a userLogin it works great and returns the uid as well as a csrf token. But this isn't used anywhere either at the client or the Drupal host. So any following command that requires the access rights of the user that was just logged in; will fail.
I am not entirely sure of how this ties together between client and host; but a lot of good work done here by Tyler it would be a shame to scrap it all. I know for D7 i had to write some hook_init() code to set the session when a login call was used. Not sure if this is the same thing missing in D8.
