evercookie in Spring Security rememberme-service

Question

I'd like to use the evercookie javascript library to receive the users cookie and make the spring security rememberme-service use it.

I read a bit about implementing a custom remember-me service, but I think I just need to discover the cookie on the client-side using the evercookie library. I've got zero knowledge about cookie handling, so any help how to implement the evercookie library so that a cookie will be set and discovered through the library would be appreciated.

In my opinion evercookie isn't good choice. It is generating tremendous number of http requests. It has killed my browser. Your users will be fourious about it.
