Cookie

Some properties and methods of the webpage and the phantom object need a cookie object.

A cookie object is an object that have these properties:

• name: the name of the cookie (string)
• value: the value of the cookie (string)
• domain: the domain name on which the cookie is attached
• path: the path in URLs on which the cookie is valid
• httponly: true if the cookie should only be sent to, and can only be modified by, an HTTP connection (i.e: cannot be read into document.cookie). default: false.
• secure: true if the cookie should only be sent over a secure connection.
• expires: Holds the expiration date, formated in ISO format (for example “2014-10-23” or “2014-10-23T14:48:00”). This property should be null for cookies existing only during a session.
• expiry: : Holds the expiration date, in milliseconds since the epoch. This property should be null or 0 for cookies existing only during a session.

Note: there is an inconsistency in PhantomJS 1.9.x. When you set a cookie, expiry should be in milliseconds since the epoch (1970-01-01), but when you read a cookie, its value is in seconds since the epoch! SlimerJs follows this bad behavior to not break existing PhantomJs scripts.

See webpage.cookies, webpage.addCookie(), webpage.clearCookies(), webpage.deleteCookie(), phantom.addCookie(), phantom.clearCookies(), phantom.cookies, phantom.cookiesEnabled, phantom.deleteCookie() .

Storage

Cookies are stored in a sqlite database in the mozilla profile. If you want to have persistent cookies, you cannot indicate a file like for PhantomJS, but you should create a permanent profile. See profiles.
