This library is a basic cookie parser which uses the algorithms defined in RFC 6265.

External dependencies

react-native-sensitive-info is used as the storage manager

react-native-url-polyfill is used to parse URLs

Install

yarn add react-native-cookie-parser

npm install react-native-cookie-parser

Usage

import { CookieManager } from 'react-native-cookie-parser'

const cookieManager = new CookieManager()

// Recommended to use inside a response interceptor
await cookieManager.insertCookiesFromHeader(
    ["A=B; path=/; expires=2022-03-11T13:06:49Z; domain=example.ro; secure", "C=Z; path=/; secure", "E=G; path=/"], 
    "https://example.ro/"
)

// Fetches cookies from store
// Format -> A=B; C=Z; E=G
let cookies = await cookieManager.getConcatenatedCookies(
    "https://example.ro/"
)

// Clear store (usually on logout)
await cookieManager.clear()

On every insert/get the expired cookies are removed

If you want to store additional security tokens, you can use TokenManager

import { TokenManager } from 'react-native-cookie-parser'

const tokenManager = new TokenManager()
await tokenManager.setAuthTokens({"a": "b", "c": "d", "e": "f"})
let tokens = await tokenManager.getAuthTokens()

// Clear store
await wipeAuthTokens()

Both CookieManager and TokenManager have an optional string argument. This string is used to set the key name which identifies the bulk item from storage manager.

CookieManager default: "PACKED_COOKIES_NAME"

TokenManager default: "PACKED_TOKENS_NAME"
