Content

The Cookie helper supports __Secure- and __Host- prefixes for cookie names.

If you want to verify if the cookie name has a prefix, specify the prefix option.

const securePrefixCookie = getCookie(c, 'yummy_cookie', 'secure')
const hostPrefixCookie = getCookie(c, 'yummy_cookie', 'host')

const securePrefixSignedCookie = await getSignedCookie(
  c,
  secret,
  'fortune_cookie',
  'secure'
)
const hostPrefixSignedCookie = await getSignedCookie(
  c,
  secret,
  'fortune_cookie',
  'host'
)

Also, if you wish to specify a prefix when setting the cookie, specify a value for the prefix option.

setCookie(c, 'delicious_cookie', 'macha', {
  prefix: 'secure', // or `host`
})

await setSignedCookie(
  c,
  'delicious_cookie',
  'macha',
  'secret choco chips',
  {
    prefix: 'secure', // or `host`
  }
)
