Abstract
--------

This is a [Node.js](http://nodejs.org/) extension module for wrapping
the [Node-XMLHttpRequest](https://github.com/driverdan/node-XMLHttpRequest)
module to allow it to handle HTTP Cookies, similar to what a browser
automatically does.

Installation
------------

Use the Node Package Manager (NPM) to install this module
locally (default) or globally (with option `-g`):

    $ npm install [-g] xmlhttprequest-cookie

API
---

The API is fully compatible to the API provided by the underlying
[Node-XMLHttpRequest Extension Module](https://github.com/driverdan/node-XMLHttpRequest),
module (which in turn is compatible to the API defined by the
[W3C XMLHttpRequest API Specification](http://www.w3.org/TR/XMLHttpRequest/).
In addition, the exposed `XMLHttpRequest` object also has a 
`debug` flag for controlling debug messages and there is a `CookieJar` object exposed by the module which
grants access to the cookie jar:

    var fs = require("fs");
    var xhrc = require("./xmlhttprequest-cookie");
    var XMLHttpRequest = xhrc.XMLHttpRequest;
    var CookieJar = xhrc.CookieJar;

    if (fs.existsSync("./sample.db"))
        CookieJar.load(fs.readFileSync("./sample.db", { encoding: "utf8" }));

    var get = function (url, complete) {
        var xhr = new XMLHttpRequest();
        xhr.debug = true;
        xhr.onreadystatechange = function() {
            if (xhr.readyState === 4) {
                console.log("body length: " + this.responseText.length);
                complete(xhr);
            }
        };
        xhr.open("GET", "https://github.com/rse/");
        xhr.send();
    };

    get("https://github.com/rse/", function (xhr) {
        console.log("body: " + xhr.responseText.substr(0, 100));
        get("https://github.com/rse/", function (xhr) {
            console.log("body: " + xhr.responseText.substr(0, 100));
            fs.writeFileSync("./sample.db", CookieJar.save(), { encoding: "utf8" });
        });
    });
