When we create a website, we always need to use cookies, either on the browser side, or on the server side through the HTTP headers Cookie and Set-Cookie.

The problem is that most of the packages allowing to handle cookies are not maintained anymore, not written in TS, not exported in both CommonJS and ES module, not 100% compliant with RFC 6265, not complete enough and usable on both server and client side or simply don't have a good API...

That's why I created my own package : Cookie Muncher! A lightweight and typesafe package for manipulating cookies in NodeJS and the browser.

• 🚀 Lightweight
• 🌏 Works in all browsers
• 🧪 Unit tested
• 🔷 Typesafe
• 📦 Support ESM & CJS
• ✅ RFC 6265 compliant
• 📖 Well documented

This package is divided into two modules.

httpCookie

Serialize and parse cookie from HTTP headers Cookie and Set-Cookie.

• httpCookie.serialize(cookie: Cookie, options?: HttpCookieOptions): string
• httpCookie.parse(cookies: string): Cookie[]
• HttpCookieOptions

domCookie

Create, update, remove and get cookies from browser DOM.

• domCookie.set(cookie: Cookie, options?: DomCookieOptions): void
• domCookie.get(name: string): Cookie | null
• domCookie.getAll(): Cookie[]
• domCookie.remove(name: string, options?: DomCookieOptions): void
• DomCookieOptions

This package will definitely be your best friend the next time you need to use cookies! 🍪
