module ActionController #:nodoc:
# Cookies are read and written through ActionController#cookies.
#
# The cookies being read are the ones received along with the request, the cookies
# being written will be sent out with the response. Reading a cookie does not get
# the cookie object itself back, just the value it holds.
#
# Examples for writing:
#
# # Sets a simple session cookie.
# cookies[:user_name] = "david"
#
# # Sets a cookie that expires in 1 hour.
# cookies[:login] = { :value => "XJ-122", :expires => 1.hour.from_now }
#
# Examples for reading:
#
# cookies[:user_name] # => "david"
# cookies.size # => 2
#
# Example for deleting:
#
# cookies.delete :user_name
#
# Please note that if you specify a :domain when setting a cookie, you must also specify the domain when deleting the cookie:
#
# cookies[:key] = {
# :value => 'a yummy cookie',
# :expires => 1.year.from_now,
# :domain => 'domain.com'
# }
#
# cookies.delete(:key, :domain => 'domain.com')
#
# The option symbols for setting cookies are:
#
# * :value - The cookie's value or list of values (as an array).
# * :path - The path for which this cookie applies. Defaults to the root
# of the application.
# * :domain - The domain for which this cookie applies.
# * :expires - The time at which this cookie expires, as a Time object.
# * :secure - Whether this cookie is a only transmitted to HTTPS servers.
# Default is +false+.
# * :http_only - Whether this cookie is accessible via scripting or
# only HTTP. Defaults to +false+.
