Set custom cookie in Retrofit

Question

Is there a way to set a custom cookie on retrofit requests?

Either by using the RequestInterceptor or any other means?

Answer 1

This is how it's done for retrofit2

Gradle:

compile 'com.squareup.retrofit2:retrofit:2.1.0'

The code:

static final class CookieInterceptor implements Interceptor {
            private volatile String cookie;

            public void setSessionCookie(String cookie) {
                this.cookie = cookie;
            }

            @Override
            public okhttp3.Response intercept(Chain chain) throws IOException {
                Request request = chain.request();
                if (this.cookie != null) {
                    request = request.newBuilder()
                            .header("Cookie", this.cookie)
                            .build();
                }
                return chain.proceed(request);
            }
}


class Creator {

    public static MyApi newApi() {
        Gson gson = new GsonBuilder()
                .setDateFormat("yyyy-MM-dd'T'HH:mm:ss.SSS'Z'")
                .create();

        OkHttpClient okHttpClient = new OkHttpClient.Builder()
                .addInterceptor(new CookieInterceptor())
                .build();

        Retrofit retrofit = new Retrofit.Builder()
                .baseUrl(MyApi.URL)
                .callFactory(okHttpClient)
                .addConverterFactory(GsonConverterFactory.create(gson))
                .build();
        return retrofit.create(MyApi.class);
    }
}
