I have a CookieJar that's being used with mechanize that I want to add a cookie to. How can I go about doing this? make_cookie() and set_cookie() weren't clear enough for me.
br = mechanize.Browser()
cj = cookielib.LWPCookieJar()
br.set_cookiejar(cj)
556
#!/usr/bin/python print "Set-Cookie:UserID = XYZ;\r\n" print "Set-Cookie:Password = XYZ123;\r\n" print "Set-Cookie:Expires = Tuesday, 31-Dec-2007 23:12:40 GMT";\r\n" print "Set-Cookie:Domain = www.tutorialspoint.com;\r\n" print "Set-Cookie:Path = /perl;\n" print "Content-type:text/html\r\n\r\n" ...........
cookiejar module defines classes for automatic handling of HTTP cookies. It is useful for accessing web sites that require small pieces of data – cookies – to be set on the client machine by an HTTP response from a web server, and then returned to the server in later HTTP requests.
If, however, you are using an older model cookie jar, the answer is quite simple. Just put the cookies in a zip-style plastic bag, seal it up, and put the bag in the jar. Whenever you reach in for a cookie, it's an easy step to open the bag and close it back up to keep those cookies fresh.
Managed to figure this out
import mechanize
import cookielib
br = mechanize.Browser()
cj = cookielib.LWPCookieJar()
br.set_cookiejar(cj)
ck = cookielib.Cookie(version=0, name='Name', value='1', port=None, port_specified=False, domain='www.example.com', domain_specified=False, domain_initial_dot=False, path='/', path_specified=True, secure=False, expires=None, discard=True, comment=None, comment_url=None, rest={'HttpOnly': None}, rfc2109=False)
cj.set_cookie(ck)
for index, cookie in enumerate(cj):
print index, ' : ', cookie
Output:
0 : <Cookie Name=1 for www.example.com/>
