Net::HTTP client side sessions?

Ruby
1

Been looking through Net::HTTP for a way to manage a session [i.e. cookies] on the client side but haven’t had much luck… Could anyone
point me in the right direction for a way to [short of writing it from
scratch of course] maintain a session id on the client side, i.e. I want
to be able to have my script engage in a session, e.g. logs in, makes a
post, etc [all stuff that requires my session is still valid]…

Thanks

Have you tried looking at WWW::Mechanize? It will maintain your cookies
for you.
