How to use the loopback.cookieParser function in loopback

// must be set to serve views properly when starting the app via `slc run` from
// the project rootapp.set('views', path.join(__dirname, 'views'));

app.set('views', path.join(__dirname, 'views'));
app.use('/client', loopback.static(path.join(__dirname, '../client')));
app.use('/bower_components', loopback.static(path.join(__dirname, '../bower_components')));

app.use(helmet.xssFilter());

// Implement X-Frame: Deny
app.use(helmet.xframe());

// Hide X-Powered-By
app.use(helmet.hidePoweredBy());

app.middleware('session:before', loopback.cookieParser(app.get('cookieSecret')));
app.middleware('session', loopback.session({
  secret: 'kitty',
  saveUninitialized: true,
  resave: true
}));



app.start = function() {
  // start the web server
  return app.listen(function() {
    app.emit('started');
    console.log('Web server listening at: %s', app.get('url'));
  });
};
