Cookies

We've added the cookies instance to the GetServerSidePropsContext, and also extended the request and response objects with cookie handlers. Which one to choose depends on your personal style preference. They offer the same functionality.

#

context.cookies

The simplest way to use cookies, is probably via the context.cookies namespace.

export const getServerSideProps = handle({
  async get({ cookies }) {
    const session = cookies.get('session');
    cookies.set('session', Date.now(), { expires: 300 });
  },
});

See pillarjs/cookies for more options.

Alternatively, you might want to use the getCookie and setCookie helpers on the request and response properties.

#

req.getCookie

Extract a cookie with the given name from the Cookie header in the request.

export const getServerSideProps = handle({
  async get({ req }) {
    const session = req.getCookie('session');
  },
});

See pillarjs/cookies#cookies-get for more options.

#

res.setCookie

This sets the given cookie in the response. If the value is omitted, an response header with an expired data is used to delete the cookie.

export const getServerSideProps = handle({
  async get({ res }) {
    res.setCookie('session', Date.now(), { expires: 300 });
  },
});

See pillarjs/cookies#cookies-set for more options.
