### synopsis
use Cookie::Baker; $headers->push_header('Set-Cookie', bake_cookie('foo','val')); my $cookie = bake_cookie('foo', { val => 'val', path => "test", domain => '.example.com', expires => '+24h' }); my $cookies_hashref = crush_cookie($headers->header('Cookie'));
bake_cookie's expires accepts some formats like this.
expires => time + 24 * 60 * 60 # epoch time expires => 'Wed, 03-Nov-2010 20:54:16 GMT' expires => '+30s' # 30 seconds from now expires => '+10m' # ten minutes from now expires => '+1h' # one hour from now expires => '-1d' # yesterday (i.e. "ASAP!") expires => '+3M' # in three months expires => '+10y' # in ten years time expires => 'now' #immediately
I know that cpan has already may cookie related modules. But dead simple cookie generator and parser module to use Plack::Middlewares and Web Applications isn't there.
