CGI::Cookie

Attributes

expires[RW]
name[RW]
path[RW]
secure[R]

Public Class Methods

new(name = "", *value) click to toggle source

Create a new CGI::Cookie object.

The contents of the cookie can be specified as a name and one or more value arguments. Alternatively, the contents can be specified as a single hash argument. The possible keywords of this hash are as follows:

name

the name of the cookie. Required.

value

the cookie's value or list of values.

path

the path for which this cookie applies. Defaults to the base directory of the CGI script.

domain

the domain for which this cookie applies.

expires

the time at which this cookie expires, as a Time object.

secure

whether this cookie is a secure cookie or not (default to false). Secure cookies are only transmitted to HTTPS servers.

These keywords correspond to attributes of the cookie object.

parse(raw_cookie) click to toggle source

Parse a raw cookie string into a hash of cookie-name=>Cookie pairs.

cookies = CGI::Cookie::parse("raw_cookie_string")
  # { "name1" => cookie1, "name2" => cookie2, ... }
 
               # File cgi/cookie.rb, line 124
def Cookie::parse(raw_cookie)
  cookies = Hash.new([])
  return cookies unless raw_cookie

  raw_cookie.split(/[;,]\s?/).each do |pairs|
    name, values = pairs.split('=',2)
    next unless name and values
    name = CGI::unescape(name)
    values ||= ""
    values = values.split('&').collect{|v| CGI::unescape(v) }
    if cookies.has_key?(name)
      values = cookies[name].value + values
    end
    cookies[name] = Cookie::new(name, *values)
  end

  cookies
end
            

Public Instance Methods

secure=(val) click to toggle source

Set whether the Cookie is a secure cookie or not.

val must be a boolean.

 
               # File cgi/cookie.rb, line 99
def secure=(val)
  @secure = val if val == true or val == false
  @secure
end
            
to_s() click to toggle source

Convert the Cookie to its string representation.

 
               # File cgi/cookie.rb, line 105
def to_s
  val = collect{|v| CGI::escape(v) }.join("&")
  buf = "#{@name}=#{val}"
  buf << "; domain=#{@domain}" if @domain
  buf << "; path=#{@path}"     if @path
  buf << "; expires=#{CGI::rfc1123_date(@expires)}" if @expires
  buf << "; secure"            if @secure == true
  buf
