Handle Cookies¶
It is possible to manipulate cookies using the cookies attribute from a Browser instance. The cookies attribute is an instance of the CookieManager class that manipulates cookies (ie: adding and deleting).
Add a cookie¶
browser.cookies.add({'cookie_name': 'cookie_value'})
Retrieve all cookies¶
cookies = browser.cookies.all()
Delete a cookie¶
browser.cookies.delete('cookie_name') # delete the cookie 'cookie_name'
browser.cookies.delete('cookies_name_1', 'cookies_name_2') # delete two cookies
Delete all cookies¶
browser.cookies.delete_all()
For more details check the API reference of the
CookieManager class.
Extra Arguments¶
Each driver accepts various parameters when creating cookies. These can be used with browser.cookies.add as extra arguments. For example, WebDriver can use path, domain, secure, and expiry:
- ::
browser.cookies.add({‘cookie_name’: ‘cookie_value’}, path=’/cookiePath’)
