Back to plugins | Download plugin
The Cookie plugin adds 2 methods to easily read and write to cookies.
Read
To get the value of a cookie all you need is the name
.
var value = nano.cookie.read('example');
Write
The nano.cookie.write()
method allows you to create a new cookie or modify an existing value. It these arguments in the following order:
-
name
[string]
(name of the cookie) -
value
[mixed]
(value to store) -
expires
[string]
(date in UTC format) -
path
[string]
(path to read the cookie)
nano.cookie.write('example', 123, nano.time(nano.time()+(24*60*60*1000), 'UTC'), '/');
You can use the nano.time()
function to generate the UTC date string. Here we set the expires date to 1 day in the future. The API documentation for nano.time()
can be found here
