Hello all,
I'm sure I'm not using this right, but I don't understand what I'm
doing wrong. What I want is to get all the cookies from the request,
then extract the 'sessId' cookie. I'm using this code:
-----------------
from mod_python import Cookie
[---]
def index(req, sessId = None):
cookies = Cookie.get_cook ies(req)
if not sessId and cookies.has_key ('sessId'):
sessId = cookies['sessId']
sess = Session(req, sessId)
httphdr(req)
-----------------
(Note: The Session() constructor will attempt to set the cookie, and
httphdr() is responsible for the send_http_heade r() call).
This is the part I don't understand. If the sessId cookie exists, it
will fail because the returned sessId object will be a Cookie object. If
I print str(sessId), I will get the output "sessId=bla h". The cookie is
set using:
c = Cookie.Cookie(' sessId', 'blah')
c.expires = time.time() + 60*30
Cookie.add_cook ie(req, c)
So, the part I don't understand is why
sessId = cookies['sessId']
... is returning a Cookie-object. I would have expected to get a
string containing "blah"?
I can get this to work, by doing this:
cookies = Cookie.get_cook ies(req)
c = str(cookies['sessId']).split('=', 1)
...then use c[1]. Is that the proper way? Seems kind of strange to
store the cookies in a dictonary without being able to use the benefits
of them?
