A simple and elegant PHP utility class for managing HTTP cookies, created by Flowaxy.
You can include the package via Composer:
composer require flowaxy/cookieOr, if you are developing and using your local repository:
{
"repositories": [
{
"type": "vcs",
"url": "https://github.com/flowaxy/cookie"
}
],
"require": {
"flowaxy/cookie": "dev-main"
},
"minimum-stability": "dev",
"prefer-stable": true
}use Flowaxy\Cookie;
// Set a cookie
Cookie::set('username', 'JohnDoe', 7); // Expires in 7 days
// Get a cookie
$username = Cookie::get('username');
// Check if cookie is empty
if (!Cookie::isEmpty('username')) {
echo "Welcome, $username!";
}
// Remove a cookie
Cookie::remove('username');You can test cookie functionality with a simple script. Save the following as test.php:
<?php
require_once './vendor/autoload.php';
use Flowaxy\Cookie;
$action = $_GET['action'] ?? null;
$key = 'test_cookie';
$value = 'FlowaxyRocks';
switch ($action) {
case 'set':
Cookie::set($key, $value, 7);
$message = "Cookie '{$key}' has been set to '{$value}'";
break;
case 'get':
$cookieValue = Cookie::get($key);
$message = $cookieValue !== false
? "Cookie '{$key}' value is '{$cookieValue}'"
: "Cookie '{$key}' is not set";
break;
case 'remove':
Cookie::remove($key);
$message = "Cookie '{$key}' has been removed";
break;
case 'check':
$isEmpty = Cookie::isEmpty($key);
$message = $isEmpty
? "Cookie '{$key}' is empty or not set"
: "Cookie '{$key}' has a value";
break;
default:
$message = "No action provided. Use ?action=set|get|remove|check";
}
?>
