What are Cookies Files ?

The Netscape cookie files are widely used. Curl, by example, allows you to select a file (called the cookie jar) to save and read the cookies using this format. This library will help you to manipulate and read those cookies.

Example

Simple example of reading + writing cookies

/*Open and parse the cookie file*/

$configuration = (new Configuration())->setCookieDir('cookies/');
$cookieJar = (new CookieFileHandler($configuration))->parseFile('my_cookie_file');

/*Add (and save) a cookie*/

$cookieJar->add(
    (new Cookie())
        ->setHttpOnly(true)
        ->setPath('/foo')
        ->setSecure(true)
        ->setExpire(new DateTime('2020-02-20 20:20:02'))
        ->setName('foo')
        ->setValue('bar')
)->persist();
