How force that session is loaded?

Question

I\'m working on an application that needs to use session id information. My session is stored in cookies. The problem I have is that my session is not immediately available

Answer 1

Here's some relevant code from ActionDispatch::Session:

 def [](key)
    load_for_read!
    @delegate[key.to_s]
  end

  private

  def load_for_read!
    load! if !loaded? && exists?
  end

Which implies that the session object will be loaded as soon as you access any value by its key via [].
