Cookies

Cookies are an important part of a web applications, Simcify has a cookie library included.

The cookie library we have used is js-cookie which is an open source library. We have't made any changes on the code so the usage is same from the library documentation.

usage

//Create a cookie, valid across the entire site:
Cookies.set('name', 'value');

//Create a cookie that expires 7 days from now, valid across the entire site:
Cookies.set('name', 'value', { expires: 7 });

//Create an expiring cookie, valid to the path of the current page:
Cookies.set('name', 'value', { expires: 7, path: '' });

//Read cookie:
Cookies.get('name'); // => 'value'
Cookies.get('nothing'); // => undefined

//Read all visible cookies:
Cookies.get(); // => { name: 'value' }

//Note: It is not possible to read a particular cookie by passing one of the cookie attributes (which may or may not have been used when writing the cookie in question):
Cookies.get('foo', { domain: 'sub.example.com' }); // `domain` won't have any effect...!

//The cookie with the name foo will only be available on .get() if it's visible from where the code is called; the domain and/or path attribute will not have an effect when reading.

//Delete cookie:
Cookies.remove('name');

//Delete a cookie valid to the path of the current page:
Cookies.set('name', 'value', { path: '' });
Cookies.remove('name'); // fail!
Cookies.remove('name', { path: '' }); // removed!
