This module implements helper procs for parsing Cookies.

Imports

Types

SameSite {.pure.} = enum Default, None, Lax, Strict: The SameSite cookie attribute. Default means that setCookie proc will not set SameSite attribute. Source Edit

Procs

proc parseCookies(s: string): StringTableRef {....raises: [], tags: [].}

Parses cookies into a string table.

The proc is meant to parse the Cookie header set by a client, not the "Set-Cookie" header set by servers.

Example:

import std/strtabs
let cookieJar = parseCookies("a=1; foo=bar")
assert cookieJar["a"] == "1"
assert cookieJar["foo"] == "bar"

Source Edit

proc setCookie(key, value: string; domain = ""; path = ""; expires = "";
               noName = false; secure = false; httpOnly = false;
               maxAge = none(int); sameSite = SameSite.Default): string {.
    ...raises: [], tags: [].}

Creates a command in the format of Set-Cookie: key=value; Domain=...; ...

Tip: Cookies can be vulnerable. Consider setting secure=true, httpOnly=true and sameSite=Strict.
