How can I set and read session data in RingoJS? - rhino

Question

Good day,
I have recently started playing with RingoJS along with Stick middleware and I am now stuck with sessions. I can't make it work.
main.js
var {Application} = require( "./_lib_/stick" ),
app = exports.app = Application();
app.configure( "mount" );
app.mount( "/", require( "./actions" ) );
if ( require.main === module ) {
require( "ringo/httpserver" ).main( module.directory );
}
actions.js
var {Application, helpers} = require( "./_lib_/stick" ),
Response = require( "ringo/jsgi/response" );
export( "app" );
var app = Application();
app.configure( "route", "render", "session" );
app.render.base = module.resolve( "templates" );
app.render.master = "page.html";
app.get("/session.htm", function( request ) {
//request.session.data.foo = "bar";
request.session.data.put("foo", "bar");
return Response.redirect( "session2.htm" );
});
app.get("/session2.htm", function( request ) {
var value = request.session;
return Response.html( "Session: " + value );
});
I've tested many combinaison but none of them worked as espected.
Most errors I get is about reading the data from the session. For example:
TypeError: Cannot read property "data" from undefined
Any tips?

"session" needs to come before "mount" in app.configure.
On the fourth line of main.js:
app.configure( "session", "mount" );
Then, remove "session" from the later call to app.configure since there's no point in running the middleware twice.
