Table of Contents

Status

This library is production ready.

Synopsis

    lua_package_path "/path/to/lua-resty-cookie/lib/?.lua;;";

    server {
        location /test {
            content_by_lua '
                local ck = require "resty.cookie"
                local cookie, err = ck:new()
                if not cookie then
                    ngx.log(ngx.ERR, err)
                    return
                end

                -- get single cookie
                local field, err = cookie:get("lang")
                if not field then
                    ngx.log(ngx.ERR, err)
                    return
                end
                ngx.say("lang", " => ", field)

                -- get all cookies
                local fields, err = cookie:get_all()
                if not fields then
                    ngx.log(ngx.ERR, err)
                    return
                end

                for k, v in pairs(fields) do
                    ngx.say(k, " => ", v)
                end

                -- set one cookie
                local ok, err = cookie:set({
                    key = "Name", value = "Bob", path = "/",
                    domain = "example.com", secure = true, httponly = true,
                    expires = "Wed, 09 Jun 2021 10:18:14 GMT", max_age = 50,
                    samesite = "Strict", extension = "a4334aebaec"
                })
                if not ok then
                    ngx.log(ngx.ERR, err)
                    return
                end

                -- set another cookie, both cookies will appear in HTTP response
                local ok, err = cookie:set({
                    key = "Age", value = "20",
                })
                if not ok then
                    ngx.log(ngx.ERR, err)
                    return
                end
            ';
        }
    }

Methods

Back to TOC

new

syntax: cookie_obj = cookie()

Create a new cookie object for current request. You can get parsed cookie from client or set cookie to client later using this object.

Back to TOC

get

syntax: cookie_val, err = cookie_obj:get(cookie_name)

Get a single client cookie value. On error, returns nil and an error message.

Back to TOC

get_all

syntax: fields, err = cookie_obj:get_all()

Get all client cookie key/value pairs in a lua table. On error, returns nil and an error message.

Back to TOC

get_cookie_size

syntax: size = cookie_obj:get_cookie_size()

Get the cookie size, i.e the string length of the cookie header value.

Back to TOC

set

syntax: ok, err = cookie_obj:set({
    key = "Name",
    value = "Bob",
    path = "/",
    domain = "example.com",
    secure = true, httponly = true,
    expires = "Wed, 09 Jun 2021 10:18:14 GMT",
    max_age = 50,
    samesite = "Strict",
    extension = "a4334aebaec"
})

Set a cookie to client. This will add a new 'Set-Cookie' response header. key and value are required, all other fields are optional. If the same cookie (whole cookie string, e.g. "Name=Bob; Expires=Wed, 09 Jun 2021 10:18:14 GMT; Max-Age=50; Domain=example.com; Path=/; Secure; HttpOnly;") has already been setted, new cookie will be ignored.

Back to TOC

get_cookie_string

syntax: cookie_string, err = cookie.get_cookie_string({ --[[ see "set" method ]] })

Returns a cookie string representing the table passed. See the set method for details, but unlike set, this function doesn't change the current request response, but just return the generated string. On error, returns nil and an error message.

This is a static function, not a method of the cookie object.

Installation

You need to compile ngx_lua with your Nginx.

You need to configure the lua_package_path directive to add the path of your lua-resty-cookie source tree to ngx_lua's Lua module search path, as in

# nginx.conf
http {
    lua_package_path "/path/to/lua-resty-cookie/lib/?.lua;;";
    ...
}

and then load the library in Lua:

local ck = require "resty.cookie"
