Tiny little function for getting cookies on both client & server with next.js.
This enables easy client-side and server-side rendering of pages that depend on cookies.
pnpm add @opensourceframework/next-cookiesor
npm install @opensourceframework/next-cookiesconst allCookies = cookies(ctx);allCookies will be an object with keys for each cookie.
The ctx object is passed to your getInitialProps function by next.js.
const { myCookie } = cookies(ctx);or
const myCookie = cookies(ctx).myCookie;The ctx object is passed to your getInitialProps function by next.js.
This library does not support setting cookies. However, this is how to do it in client-side code:
document.cookie = `foo=bar; path=/`;This sets a cookie named foo to the value bar.
The path portion is optional but usually desired.
An expiration date may be appended (see below), otherwise the cookie will be deleted whenever the browser is closed.
This library does not support deleting cookies. However, this is how to do it in client-side code:
document.cookie = `foo=; path=/; expires=Thu, 01 Jan 1970 00:00:01 GMT`;The value doesn't matter, although the path does. The expiration date must be in the past.
import React from 'react'
import cookies from '@opensourceframework/next-cookies'
interface NameFormProps {
initialName: string
}
export default class NameForm extends React.Component<NameFormProps> {
static async getInitialProps(ctx) {
return {
initialName: cookies(ctx).name || ''
}
}
constructor(props: NameFormProps) {
super(props);
this.state = { name: props.initialName || '' };
this.handleChange = this.handleChange.bind(this);
this.reset = this.reset.bind(this);
}
handleChange(event: React.ChangeEvent<HTMLInputElement>) {
const newName = event.target.value;
this.setState({ name: newName });
document.cookie = `name=${newName}; path=/`;
}
reset() {
this.setState({ name: '' });
document.cookie = 'name=; path=/; expires=Thu, 01 Jan 1970 00:00:01 GMT';
}
render() {
return (
<div>
<p>Hi {this.state.name}</p>
<p>Change cookie: <input
type="text"
placeholder="Your name here"
value={this.state.name}
onChange={this.handleChange}
/>!
</p>
<p>Delete cookie: <button onClick={this.reset}>Reset</button></p>
</div>
);
}
