Parse `Cookie` header and populate `req.cookies` with an object keyed by the
|
|
cookie names. Optionally you may enable signed cookie support by passing a
|
|
`secret` string, which assigns `req.secret` so it may be used by other
|
|
middleware.
|
|
|
|
## Installation
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
$ npm install cookie-parser
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## API
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
var cookieParser = require('cookie-parser')
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### cookieParser(secret, options)
|
|
|
|
Create a new cookie parser middleware function using the given `secret` and
|
|
`options`.
|
|
|
|
- `secret` a string or array used for signing cookies. This is optional and if
|
|
not specified, will not parse signed cookies. If a string is provided, this
|
|
is used as the secret. If an array is provided, an attempt will be made to
|
|
unsign the cookie with each secret in order.
|
|
- `options` an object that is passed to `cookie.parse` as the second option. See
|
|
[cookie](https://www.npmjs.org/package/cookie) for more information.
|
|
- `decode` a function to decode the value of the cookie
|
|
|
|
The middleware will parse the `Cookie` header on the request and expose the
|
|
cookie data as the property `req.cookies` and, if a `secret` was provided, as
|
|
the property `req.signedCookies`. These properties are name value pairs of the
|
|
cookie name to cookie value.
|
|
|
|
When `secret` is provided, this module will unsign and validate any signed cookie
|
|
values and move those name value pairs from `req.cookies` into `req.signedCookies`.
|
|
A signed cookie is a cookie that has a value prefixed with `s:`. Signed cookies
|
|
that fail signature validation will have the value `false` instead of the tampered
|
|
value.
|
|
|
|
In addition, this module supports special "JSON cookies". These are cookie where
|
|
the value is prefixed with `j:`. When these values are encountered, the value will
|
|
be exposed as the result of `JSON.parse`. If parsing fails, the original value will
|
|
remain.
|
|
|
|
### cookieParser.JSONCookie(str)
|
|
|
|
Parse a cookie value as a JSON cookie. This will return the parsed JSON value
|
|
if it was a JSON cookie, otherwise, it will return the passed value.
|
|
|
|
### cookieParser.JSONCookies(cookies)
|
|
|
|
Given an object, this will iterate over the keys and call `JSONCookie` on each
|
|
value, replacing the original value with the parsed value. This returns the
|
|
same object that was passed in.
|
|
|
|
### cookieParser.signedCookie(str, secret)
|
|
|
|
Parse a cookie value as a signed cookie. This will return the parsed unsigned
|
|
value if it was a signed cookie and the signature was valid. If the value was
|
|
not signed, the original value is returned. If the value was signed but the
|
|
signature could not be validated, `false` is returned.
|
|
|
|
The `secret` argument can be an array or string. If a string is provided, this
|
|
is used as the secret. If an array is provided, an attempt will be made to
|
|
unsign the cookie with each secret in order.
|
|
|
|
### cookieParser.signedCookies(cookies, secret)
|
|
|
|
Given an object, this will iterate over the keys and check if any value is a
|
|
signed cookie. If it is a signed cookie and the signature is valid, the key
|
|
will be deleted from the object and added to the new object that is returned.
|
|
|
|
The `secret` argument can be an array or string. If a string is provided, this
|
|
is used as the secret. If an array is provided, an attempt will be made to
|
|
unsign the cookie with each secret in order.
|
|
|
|
## Example
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
var express = require('express')
|
|
var cookieParser = require('cookie-parser')
|
|
|
|
var app = express()
|
|
app.use(cookieParser())
|
|
|
|
app.get('/', function (req, res) {
|
|
// Cookies that have not been signed
|
|
console.log('Cookies: ', req.cookies)
|
|
|
|
// Cookies that have been signed
|
|
console.log('Signed Cookies: ', req.signedCookies)
|
|
})
|
|
|
|
app.listen(8080)
|
|
|
|
// curl command that sends an HTTP request with two cookies
|
|
// curl http://127.0.0.1:8080 --cookie "Cho=Kim;Greet=Hello"
|
|
```
