Cookie

Cookie is important for Web Application.

HTTP is stateless, so to keep user info (login, access etc…) client side data is key to check status.

But, we sometime use cookie without understanding. Also, these days, cookie is strict to use for tracking purpose.

Create Cookie

Server Response : Set-Cookie Header
Set-Cookie: cookie-name=cookie-value

Ex)

Multiple Cookies
HTTP/2.0 200 OK
Content-Type: text/html
Set-Cookie: key1=value1
Set-Cookie: key2=value2

Send Cookie

Server Request : Cookie Header

Cookie and Session Cookie

Session Cookie : Save into browser memory. So, remove cookie when close a browser.

If Expires, Max-Age are not set, this is session cookie

Cookie : Save into file in browser. Now clear when the user close a browser.
