@contextjs/webserver-middleware-cookies v25.0.0-beta.3

@contextjs/webserver-middleware-cookies

Middleware for ContextJS WebServer that transparently handles HTTP cookies in requests and responses.

Installation

npm i @contextjs/webserver-middleware-cookies

Features

• Automatic Parsing: Reads the Cookie header and populates context.request.cookies with a CookieCollection of Cookie objects.
• Response Management: Collects cookies you add to context.response.cookies and emits proper Set-Cookie headers at the end of each request.
• Full Cookie Options: Support for domain, path, expires, max-age, secure, HttpOnly, and SameSite attributes.
• OOP & Async: Built as a modern, promise-based middleware compatible with the ContextJS ecosystem.

Usage

First, register the middleware alongside your web server options:

import "@contextjs/webserver-middleware-cookies";

import { Application } from "@contextjs/system";
import { HttpContext, WebServerOptions } from "@contextjs/webserver";
import { Cookie, CookieOptions, SameSiteMode } from "@contextjs/webserver-middleware-cookies";

const app = new Application();

app.useWebServer((options: WebServerOptions) => {
    options.onEvent = e => console.log(`[WebServer:${e.type}]`, e.detail);
    options
        .useCookies()
        .useMiddleware({
            name: "logger",
            version: "1.0.0",
            async onRequest(context: HttpContext) {
                const sessionCookie = context.request.cookies.get("session");
                console.log("Session:", sessionCookie?.value);

                const cookieOptions = new CookieOptions("localhost", "/", null, true, SameSiteMode.Lax, true, null);
                const cookie = new Cookie("session", "abc123", cookieOptions);
                context.response.cookies.set("session", cookie);

                return await context.response
                    .setHeader("Content-Type", "text/plain")
                    .sendAsync("Hello, ContextJS!");
            }
        });
});

await app.runAsync();
