CookieManager

A simple JS class to manage cookies\ CookieManager provides a way to simply manage cookies.

Installation

Using npm, run the following command :

npm i @mercierkevin35/cookiemanager

Then use it in your file

import CookieManager from '@mercierkevin35/cookiemanager';

Create a cookie

To create a cookie whose name is "myCookie" and value is "my cookie value",\ proceed as follows :

//Create
const manager = new CookieManager(),
    key = "myCookie",
    value = "my cookie value";
manager.setCookie(key, value);

If not specified, the cookie expires at the end of the session. To explicitly specify the expiration delay, proceed like so :

//Create
const manager = new CookieManager(),
    key = "myCookie",
    value = "my cookie value",
    expireDays = 7;
manager.setCookie(key, value, expireDays); // this cookie expires in 7 days

Get a cookie value

The getCookies method returns a JS object containing each cookie as attributes\ You can get a specific value like this :

//Create
const manager = new CookieManager(),
    key = "myCookie",
    value = "my cookie value",
    expireDays = 7;
manager.setCookie(key, value, expireDays); // this cookie expires in 7 days

//Read
let myValue = manager.getCookies().myCookie // myValue == "my cookie value"

You can also specify a key dynamically into brackets like this :

const manager = new CookieManager(),
    key = "myCookie",
    value = "my cookie value",
    expireDays = 7;
manager.setCookie(key, value, expireDays); // this cookie expires in 7 days

//Read
let myValue = manager.getCookies().myCookie; // myValue == "my cookie value"

let dynamicKey = "myCookie";
let theValue = manager.getCookies()[dynamicKey]; // theValue == "my cookie value"

Update a cookie value

To update a cookie value, just set a cookie with the same key

//Create
const manager = new CookieManager(),
    key = "myCookie",
    value = "my cookie value",
    expireDays = 7;
manager.setCookie(key, value, expireDays); // this cookie expires in 7 days

//Read
let myValue = manager.getCookies().myCookie; // myValue == "my cookie value"
let dynamicKey = "myCookie";

let theValue = manager.getCookies()[dynamicKey]; // theValue == "my cookie value"

//Update
manager.setCookie("myCookie", "my new cookie value");

Delete a cookie

To delete a cookie, use the deleteCookie method with the key as argument

//Create
const manager = new CookieManager(),
    key = "myCookie",
    value = "my cookie value",
    expireDays = 7;
manager.setCookie(key, value, expireDays); // this cookie expires in 7 days

//Read
let myValue = manager.getCookies().myCookie; // myValue == "my cookie value"
let dynamicKey = "myCookie";

let theValue = manager.getCookies()[dynamicKey]; // theValue == "my cookie value"

//Update
manager.setCookie("myCookie", "my new cookie value");

//Delete
manager.deleteCookie("myCookie");
//myCookie no more exists
