Electron cookie
13,195
This is how electron handles his own cookies.
var session = require('electron').remote.session;
var ses = session.fromPartition('persist:name');
This is how to set a cookie
function setCookie(data, name) {
var expiration = new Date();
var hour = expiration.getHours();
hour = hour + 6;
expiration.setHours(hour);
ses.cookies.set({
url: BaseURL, //the url of the cookie.
name: name, // a name to identify it.
value: data, // the value that you want to save
expirationDate: expiration.getTime()
}, function(error) {
/*console.log(error);*/
});
}
This is how to get the value of the cookie
function getCookie(name) {
var value = {
name: name // the request must have this format to search the cookie.
};
ses.cookies.get(value, function(error, cookies) {
console.console.log(cookies[0].value); // the value saved on the cookie
});
}

For electron cookie I used https://www.npmjs.com/package/electron-cookies
Then added this into my html
<script type="text/javascript"> require('electron-cookies') function createCookie(name,value,days) { if (days) { var date = new Date(); date.setTime(date.getTime()+(days*24*60*60*1000)); var expires = "; expires="+date.toGMTString(); } else var expires = ""; document.cookie = name+"="+value+expires+"; path=/"; } function getCookie12(name) { var regexp = new RegExp("(?:^" + name + "|;\s*"+ name + ")=(.*?)(?:;|$)", "g"); var result = regexp.exec(document.cookie); alert(document.cookie); return (result === null) ? null : result[1]; } </script>
and called the methods :
<button onclick="createCookie('ppkcookie','testcookie',7)">Set Cookie</button> <button onclick="getCookie12('ppkcookie')">Get Cookie</button>
but the
alert(document.cookie)
shows me onlyppkcookie
notppkcookie=testcookie
Any ideas why?
Many thanks
