== Name
|
||
|
|
||
|
cowboy_req:parse_cookies - Parse cookie headers
|
||
|
|
||
|
== Description
|
||
|
|
||
|
[source,erlang]
|
||
|
----
|
||
|
parse_cookies(Req) -> [{Name, Value}]
|
||
|
|
||
|
Name :: binary() %% case sensitive
|
||
|
Value :: binary() %% case sensitive
|
||
|
----
|
||
|
|
||
|
Parse cookie headers.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Alias for link:man:cowboy_req:parse_header(3)[cowboy_req:parse_header(<<"cookie">>, Req)].
|
||
|
|
||
|
When the cookie header is missing, `[]` is returned.
|
||
|
|
||
|
While an empty cookie header is not valid, some clients do
|
||
|
send it. Cowboy will in this case also return `[]`.
|
||
|
|
||
|
== Arguments
|
||
|
|
||
|
Req::
|
||
|
|
||
|
The Req object.
|
||
|
|
||
|
== Return value
|
||
|
|
||
|
The cookies are returned as a list of key/values. Keys and
|
||
|
values are case sensitive binary strings.
|
||
|
|
||
|
== Changelog
|
||
|
|
||
|
* *2.0*: Only the parsed header value is returned, it is no longer wrapped in a tuple.
|
||
|
* *2.0*: Function introduced. Replaces `cookie/2,3` and `cookies/1`.
