cookieStorage(document)
Return a new cookie object with .getItem()
and .setItem()
operating on document
.
The provided document
should have a non-referentially transparent cookie
property
like the DOM's variant where assignment with optional path and expiry creates a
new cookie in the getter as a key=value pair.
If document is not provided, uses the global document
if it exists. Otherwise, creates a new plain object {cookie:''}
.
If given a string, uses { cookie: givenString }
.
#length
Returns number of key/value pairs present in document.cookie
#getItem(key)

#setItem(key, value, options={})
Sets the cookie at key
to value

.
#clear()
Clears document.cookie
of all key/value pairs.
