Servlet Application Sessions Cookies Example

This document provides a complete Java web application example that demonstrates the use of sessions and cookies in a servlet-based login and ticket booking system. It includes components such as a login form (index.html), a LoginServlet for handling user authentication and session management, a BookingServlet for ticket booking, and a LogoutServlet for logging out users. The application ensures that only logged-in users can access the booking functionality and remembers users through cookies if they choose to be remembered.

Complete Java Web Application Example: Sessions and Cookies

Here is a complete Java web application example demonstrating how to use

sessions and cookies in a servlet-based

login and ticket booking system. This code covers:

1. Login Handling: A form for users to log in.

2. Session Management: Tracking logged-in users using sessions, allowing

access to the booking page only for logged-in users.

3. Session Data Usage: Storing and retrieving user information in the session.

4. Cookies Usage: Storing a login cookie to remember the user for a future

session.

The project structure consists of three main parts:

1. index.html - Login form.

2. LoginServlet - Validates login, manages the session, and sets a cookie.

3. BookingServlet - Allows the user to book a ticket if logged in.

---

1. index.html - Login Form

This page provides a simple login form. Once logged in, the user can access
the booking page.

<!DOCTYPE html>

<html lang="en">

<head>

<meta charset="UTF-8">

<title>Login</title>

</head>

<body>

<h2>Login Page</h2>

<form action="LoginServlet" method="post">

<label for="username">Username:</label>

<input type="text" name="username" required><br><br>

<label for="password">Password:</label>

<input type="password" name="password" required><br><br>

<input type="checkbox" name="rememberMe"> Remember Me<br><br>

<button type="submit">Login</button>

</form>

</body>
</html>

2. LoginServlet.java - Handling Login, Session, and Cookies

This servlet handles login, creates a session, and optionally sets a cookie if

"Remember Me" is checked.

import javax.servlet.*;

import javax.servlet.http.*;

import java.io.*;

public class LoginServlet extends HttpServlet {

protected void doPost(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse

response) throws ServletException, IOException {

String username = request.getParameter("username");

String password = request.getParameter("password");

String rememberMe = request.getParameter("rememberMe");

if ("user".equals(username) && "password".equals(password)) {

HttpSession session = request.getSession();

session.setAttribute("username", username);

if (rememberMe != null && rememberMe.equals("on")) {


Cookie loginCookie = new Cookie("username", username);

loginCookie.setMaxAge(24 * 60 * 60);

response.addCookie(loginCookie);

response.sendRedirect("BookingServlet");

} else {

response.setContentType("text/html");

PrintWriter out = response.getWriter();

out.println("<html><body><h3>Invalid login. Please try

again.</h3></body></html>");

request.getRequestDispatcher("index.html").include(request, response);

3. BookingServlet.java - Ticket Booking with Session and Cookies

This servlet allows a logged-in user to book a ticket. It uses the session to

check if the user is logged in.

It also retrieves the username from a cookie if available.

import javax.servlet.*;

import javax.servlet.http.*;
import java.io.*;

public class BookingServlet extends HttpServlet {

protected void doGet(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse

response) throws ServletException, IOException {

HttpSession session = request.getSession(false);

String username = null;

if (session != null && session.getAttribute("username") != null) {

username = (String) session.getAttribute("username");

} else {

Cookie[] cookies = request.getCookies();

if (cookies != null) {

for (Cookie cookie : cookies) {

if (cookie.getName().equals("username")) {

username = cookie.getValue();

session = request.getSession();

session.setAttribute("username", username);

break;

}
}

if (username == null) {

response.sendRedirect("index.html");

} else {

response.setContentType("text/html");

PrintWriter out = response.getWriter();

out.println("<html><body>");

out.println("<h3>Welcome, " + username + "!</h3>");

out.println("<h2>Book Your Ticket</h2>");

out.println("<form action='BookingServlet' method='post'>");

out.println("<label for='destination'>Destination:</label>");

out.println("<input type='text' name='destination' required><br><br>");

out.println("<button type='submit'>Book Ticket</button>");

out.println("</form>");

out.println("<form action='LogoutServlet' method='post'><button

type='submit'>Logout</button></form>");

out.println("</body></html>");

protected void doPost(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse

response) throws ServletException, IOException {


HttpSession session = request.getSession(false);

String username = (session != null) ? (String)

session.getAttribute("username") : null;

if (username == null) {

response.sendRedirect("index.html");

} else {

String destination = request.getParameter("destination");

response.setContentType("text/html");

PrintWriter out = response.getWriter();

out.println("<html><body>");

out.println("<h3>Ticket booked successfully!</h3>");

out.println("<p>Username: " + username + "</p>");

out.println("<p>Destination: " + destination + "</p>");

out.println("<a href='BookingServlet'>Back to Booking Page</a>");

out.println("</body></html>");

4. LogoutServlet.java - Logging Out


The LogoutServlet handles logging out by invalidating the session and deleting

the login cookie.

import javax.servlet.*;

import javax.servlet.http.*;

import java.io.*;

public class LogoutServlet extends HttpServlet {

protected void doPost(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse

response) throws ServletException, IOException {

HttpSession session = request.getSession(false);

if (session != null) {

session.invalidate();

Cookie loginCookie = new Cookie("username", "");

loginCookie.setMaxAge(0);

response.addCookie(loginCookie);

response.setContentType("text/html");

PrintWriter out = response.getWriter();

out.println("<html><body><h3>You have been logged

out.</h3></body></html>");
response.sendRedirect("index.html");

---

Explanation:

1. Login: LoginServlet checks credentials and creates a session with a

username attribute.

2. Booking: BookingServlet checks if the session or cookie contains a

username.

3. Logout: LogoutServlet invalidates the session and removes the username

cookie.
