Summary
## Content
```ts
// Basic signed cookie generation
const signedCookie = await generateSignedCookie(
'delicious_cookie',
'macha',
'secret chocolate chips'
)
// Signed cookie with options
const signedCookie = await generateSignedCookie(
'delicious_cookie',
'macha',
'secret chocolate chips',
{
path: '/',
secure: true,
httpOnly: true,
}
)
Note: Unlike setCookie and setSignedCookie, these functions only generate the cookie strings. You need to manually set them in headers if needed.
