I am trying to develop login page for a web site. I am using Django 1.4.2. I stored users which logged on correctly to a cookie using set_cookie. But I didn't find clear_cookie in Django's documentation. How to clear a cookie to make a user log out?

To delete a cookie, simply call response. delete_cookie('cookie_name') . There is no cookie update method in HttpResponse , use set_cookie() to update the cookie value or expiry time.
Python Flask- Delete Cookies To delete a cookie call set_cookie() method with the name of the cookie and any value and set the max_age argument to 0.
Django provides a session framework that lets you store and retrieve data on a per-site-visitor basis. Django abstracts the process of sending and receiving cookies, by placing a session ID cookie on the client side, and storing all the related data on the server side. So the data itself is not stored client side.
Setting cookies :
def login(request): response = HttpResponseRedirect('/url/to_your_home_page') response.set_cookie('cookie_name1', 'cookie_name1_value') response.set_cookie('cookie_name2', 'cookie_name2_value') return response Deleting cookies :
def logout(request): response = HttpResponseRedirect('/url/to_your_login') response.delete_cookie('cookie_name1') response.delete_cookie('cookie_name2') return response If you love us? You can donate to us via Paypal or buy me a coffee so we can maintain and grow! Thank you!
