node-binary-cookies
Binary cookies parser for Node.
Some Apple browsers like Safari and Mobile Safari store their cookies in
a .binarycookie
format that is hard to parse. Node to the rescue! Say you
have a file at /my/path/to/Cookies.binarycookies
. You can parse it like so:
var CookieParser = cookiePath = "/my/path/to/Cookies.binarycookies"; CookieParser;
This will output something like this:
flags: 0 expiration: "Thu Apr 02 2015 14:55:59 GMT-0700 (PDT)" creation: "Tue Apr 02 2013 14:56:00 GMT-0700 (PDT)" url: '.apple.com' name: 's_pathLength' path: '/' value: 'homepage%3D1%2C'
This should all be self-explanatory except flags:
Flag | Meaning |
---|---|
0 | No flags |
1 | Secure cookie |
4 | HttpOnly cookie |
5 | Secure & HttpOnly |
Have fun! I wrote this for Appium, check it out!
