title: Dropwizard HttpSession with Redis
body: <p>I am looking to be able to use the following Jetty HttpSessionManager -> Redis with Dropwizard:</p>
  
  <p><a href="https://github.com/Ovea/jetty-session-redis" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https://github.com/Ovea/jetty-session-redis</a></p>
  
  <p>You can tell Dropwizard to use HttpSession with the following:</p>
  
  <p><code>environment.servlets().setSessionHandler(new SessionHandler());</code></p>
  
  <p>However Dropwizard provides no way to give xml config in order to tell Jetty to use the Redis session bundle above.</p>
  
  <p>How can I achieve using Redis with Dropwizard for session management? </p>
