RestKit add custom header for all requests?

I am using RestKit for my iOS app.
I would like to add a custom header for all requests.

Is it possible to add a single header in one place and have all my RestKit requests use it? If so, where do I add the code?
If not - do I have to add a header for every single request I make?

Solution

  • You can set the header on the client that the RKObjectManager creates, after initializing the RKObjectManager:

    RKObjectManager *manager = [RKObjectManager managerWithBaseURL:@"https://mycompany.example.com/rest/"];

[[manager HTTPClient] setDefaultHeader:@"X-AUTH-TOKEN" value:@"abc123"];

    You don't need to subclass the AFHTTPClient.
