Constructors
Cookie |
cookieName :: String | Name of the cookie.
cookieValue :: String | Value of the cookie.
cookieExpires :: (Maybe CalendarTime) | Expiry date of the cookie. If `Nothing`, the cookie expires when the browser sessions ends. If the date is in the past, the client should delete the cookie immediately.
cookieDomain :: (Maybe String) | The domain suffix to which this cookie will be sent.
cookiePath :: (Maybe String) | The path to which this cookie will be sent.
cookieSecure :: Bool | `True` if this cookie should only be sent using secure means.

Eq Cookie

newCookie
:: String | Name

findCookie
:: String | Cookie name
-> String | Semicolon separated list of name-value pairs
-> Maybe String | Cookie value, if found

deleteCookie
:: Cookie | Cookie to delete. The only fields that matter are `cookieName`, `cookieDomain` and `cookiePath`
-> Cookie |
Delete a cookie from the client by setting the cookie expiry date to a date in the past.
showCookie :: Cookie -> String
