For the currenlty maintained version, see heap/electron-cookies.
(Formerly called atom-shell-cookies
)
Adds support for cookies in Electron. Cookies are persisted through localStorage.
Forked from https://gist.github.com/paulcbetts/2d2de55d137a1cf9d1ac.
Electron's renderer
environment doesn't come with built in support for a document.cookie
API. Thus, if you want to use Google Analytics or another client-side analytics library, they won't work because they can't set cookies.
By using this package, you can drop client-side analytics code into your app and it will work splendidly.
npm install electron-cookies
In your app's renderer
code, just require this package:
require('electron-cookies')
Original code is written in src/index.coffee
, with tests at spec/electron_cookies_spec.coffee
. Write code in coffeescript, and run grunt
to compile coffeescript on the fly.
