Cookie(3) User Contributed Perl Documentation Cookie(3)

APR::Request::Cookie - wrapper for libapreq2's cookie API.

  use APR::Request::Cookie;

  # fetch inbound cookie
  $jar = $req->jar;
  $cookie1 = $jar->get("cookie1");

  # generate new cookie
  $cookie = APR::Request::Cookie->new($req->pool,
                                      name => "foo",
                                     value => "bar",
                                    domain => "capricorn.com");
  print "$cookie"; # prints "bar"

  $cookie->domain("example.com"); # change domains
  $cookie->version(1); # upgrade it to conform with RFC 2109/2965.

  # send a response header
  print sprintf "Set-Cookie: %s\n", $cookie->as_string;

The APR::Request::Cookie module provides base methods for interfacing with libapreq2's cookie API. It also provides a few utility functions and constants.

This manpage documents version 2.16 of the APR::Request::Cookie package.

APR::Request::Cookie

    "$cookie"

The double-quote interpolation operator maps to "APR::Request::Cookie::value()".

    ok "$cookie" eq $cookie->value;

APR::Request::Cookie

    APR::Request::Cookie->new($pool,
                               name => $name,
                              value => $value,
                              %args)

Creates a new cookie. Here $pool is an APR::Pool object, and $name is the cookie's name. The $value is transformed into the cookie's raw value through the class' "freeze()" method. The remaining arguments are optional:

-secure
-httponly
-version
-path
-domain
-port
-expires
-comment
-commentURL

For details on these arguments, please consult the corresponding method's documentation.

    APR::Request::Cookie->freeze($value)

Class method representing the default serializer; here it returns $value unmodified.

    ok "foo" eq APR::Request::Cookie->freeze("foo");

    $cookie->thaw()

Reverses "freeze()"; here it simply returns $cookie->value since freeze() is a noop.

    ok $cookie->thaw eq $cookie->value;

    $cookie->name()

Fetch the cookie's name. This attribute cannot be modified and is never serialized; ie freeze() and thaw() do not act on the cookie's name.

    $cookie->value()

Fetch the cookie's raw (frozen) value. This attribute cannot be modified.

    $cookie->secure()
    $cookie->secure($set)

Get/set the cookie's secure flag.

    $cookie->secure(1);
    ok $cookie->secure == 1;

    $cookie->httponly()
    $cookie->httponly($set)

Get/set the cookie's HttpOnly flag.

    $cookie->httponly(1);
    ok $cookie->httponly == 1;

    $cookie->version()
    $cookie->version($set)

Get/set the cookie's version number. Version 0 cookies conform to the Netscape spec; Version 1 cookies conform to either RFC 2109 or RFC 2965.

    $version = $cookie->version;
    $cookie->version(1);
    ok $cookie->version == 1;

    $cookie->path()
    $cookie->path($set)

Get/set the cookie's path string.

    $path = $cookie->path;
    $cookie->path("/1/2/3/4");
    ok $cookie->path eq "/1/2/3/4";

    $cookie->domain()
    $cookie->domain($set)

Get/set the cookie's domain string.

    $domain = $cookie->domain;
    $cookie->domain("apache.org");
    ok $cookie->domain eq "apache.org";

    $cookie->port()
    $cookie->port($set)

Get/set the cookie's port string. Only valid for Version 1 cookies.

    $port = $cookie->port;
    $cookie->port(8888);
    ok $cookie->port == 8888;

    $cookie->comment()
    $cookie->comment($set)

Get/set the cookie's comment string. Only valid for Version 1 cookies.

    $comment = $cookie->comment;
    $cookie->comment("quux");
    ok $cookie->comment eq "quux";

    $cookie->commentURL()
    $cookie->commentURL($set)

Get/set the cookie's commentURL string. Only valid for Version 1 cookies.

    $commentURL = $cookie->commentURL;
    $cookie->commentURL("/foo/bar");
    ok $cookie->commentURL eq "/foo/bar";

    $cookie->is_tainted()
    $cookie->is_tainted($set)

Get/set the cookie's internal tainted flag.

    $tainted = $cookie->is_tainted;
    $cookie->is_tainted(1);
    ok $cookie->is_tainted == 1;

    APR::Request::Cookie->make($pool, $name, $value)

Fast XS cookie constructor invoked by "new()". The cookie's raw name & value are taken directly from the passed in arguments; no freezing/encoding is done on the $value.

    $cookie->as_string()

String representation of the cookie, suitable for inclusion in a "Set-Cookie" header.

    print "Set-Cookie: ", $cookie->as_string, "\n";

  APR::Request::Cookie

  expires($date_string)

Apache2::Cookie, APR::Request.
