Apache2::REST cookie retrieve

gman has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

Hello Monks,

I am working with Apache2::REST, and can't seem to retrieve cookies from the request headers.
Apache2::REST::Request requires the $r request object, however i think Apache2::REST sub GET { my ($self, $request, $response) = @_ ; } $request is only the URL parameters.

I have tried variations of the following;

 my $req = Apache2::Request->new($request->{r});
 my $j = Apache2::Cookie::Jar->new($req);
 my @attESSec = $j->cookies();

I know i'm not connecting the dots here, any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks,

UPDATE

This is the easiest way I found to solve the issue;

sub GET {
    my ($self, $request, $response) = @_ ;
    my $c = $request->connection;
    my $cookies = $request->headers_in->{Cookie};
    my %cookies = map { split(/=/) } split(/;/,$cookies);

I tried feeding $c and $cookies into Apache2::Cookie without luck

PS. Whats with my Submit button saying stumbit? s/stumbit/submit/ ?

Hi,

Apache2::Cookie says

    $j = Apache2::Cookie::Jar->new($request); ## instead of $request->
+{r}
    $c_in = $j->cookies("foo");         # get cookie from request head
+ers

But, maybe consider a different framework ( Mojolicious or Dancer ... )

Also Just a little note - "stumbit" instead of "submit"

update: hehe, I see you already tried that, I got confused

oh, I see it was almost, try $request instead of $request->{r}
