Usage

Installation

npm install --save @advanced-rest-client/arc-cookies

Cookie parser

It parses set-cookie header received from the server and produces a Cookie object.

import { Cookies } from '@advanced-rest-client/cookie-parser';

const parser = new Cookies('rememberme=1; domain=foo.com; path=/; ssid=Hy1t5e#oj21.876aak;', 'http://bar.com/');
console.log(parser.cookies);

which is equivalent to:

const cookies = Cookies.parse('...');

The second argument is the request URL needed to properly pase cookies.

Manipulating cookies

The filter function filters out cookies that should not be considered for given URL. This is defined in https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6265.

const instance = new Cookies('a=b; domain=foo.com; path=/;', 'http://sub.foo.com/');
const removed = instance.filter();
console.log(removed); // has the cookies because domain does not match

To clear expired cookies just call clearExpired() function.

const instance = new Cookies('a=b; expires=0;', 'http://sub.foo.com/');
// wait a second here, then
const removed = instance.filter();
console.log(removed); // the cookie expired

Cookie screen

The cookie-manager renders the cookies screen in Advanced REST Client. It uses events defined in @advanced-rest-client/arc-events to request and to communicate the state.

<cookie-manager listType="default"></cookie-manager>
