## Class SessionHandler

- java.lang.Object
- - io.vertx.rxjava.ext.web.handler.SessionHandler

- All Implemented Interfaces:
    Handler<RoutingContext>

      public class SessionHandler
      extends Object
      implements Handler<RoutingContext>

  A handler that maintains a `Session` for each browser session.

  It looks up the session for each request based on a session cookie which contains a session ID. It stores the session when the response is ended in the session store.

  The session is available on the routing context with .

  The session handler requires a `CookieHandler` to be on the routing chain before it.

  NOTE: This class has been automatically generated from the `original` non RX-ified interface using Vert.x codegen.

          public Object getDelegate()

    - #### handle

          public void handle(RoutingContext arg0)

      Description copied from interface: `Handler`
      Something has happened, so handle it.
      Specified by:
        `handle` in interface `Handler<RoutingContext>`
      Parameters:
        `arg0` - the event to handle

    - #### create

          public static SessionHandler create(SessionStore sessionStore)

      Create a session handler
      Parameters:
        `sessionStore` - the session store
      Returns:
        the handler

    - #### setSessionTimeout

          public SessionHandler setSessionTimeout(long timeout)

      Set the session timeout
      Parameters:
        `timeout` - the timeout, in ms.
      Returns:
        a reference to this, so the API can be used fluently

    - #### setNagHttps

          public SessionHandler setNagHttps(boolean nag)

      Set whether a nagging log warning should be written if the session handler is accessed over HTTP, not HTTPS
