This class cannot be instantiated directly, use the CreateManager() static method for this purpose.
The cookie tests can be found in the wxpython.py script.
TODO: in upstream CEF some methods here have a callback parameter that when non-NULL will execute asynchronously on the IO thread when storage has been initialized. SetCookie and DeleteCookies also have an OnComplete callback.
Table of contents:
| Return | static CookieManager |
Returns the global cookie manager. By default data will be stored at ApplicationSettings.cache_path if specified or in memory otherwise.
| Parameter | Type |
|---|---|
| path | string |
| persistSessionCookies=False | bool |
| Return | static CookieManager |
Creates a new cookie manager. Otherwise, data will be stored at the
specified |path|. To persist session cookies (cookies without an expiry
date or validity interval) set |persistSessionCookies|
to true. If using global manager then see the ApplicationSettings.persist_session_cookies
option. Session cookies are generally intended to be transient and most
Web browsers do not persist them. Returns None if creation fails.
You can have a separate cookie manager for each browser, see RequestHandler.GetCookieManager().
| Parameter | Type |
|---|---|
| schemes | list |
| Return | void |
Set the schemes supported by this manager. The default schemes ("http", "https", "ws" and "wss") will always be supported. Must be called before any cookies are accessed.
| Parameter | Type |
|---|---|
| object | CookieVisitor |
| Return | bool |
Visit all cookies on the IO thread. The returned cookies are ordered by longest path, then by earliest creation date. Returns false if cookies cannot be accessed.
The CookieVisitor object is a python class that implements the
CookieVisitorcallbacks. You must keep a strong reference to the CookieVisitor object while visiting cookies, otherwise it gets
destroyed and the CookieVisitor callbacks won't be called.
| Parameter | Type |
|---|---|
| url | string |
| includeHttpOnly | bool |
| object | CookieVisitor |
| Return | bool |
Visit a subset of cookies on the IO thread. The results are filtered by the given url scheme, host, domain and path. If |includeHttpOnly| is true HTTP-only cookies will also be included in the results. The returned cookies are ordered by longest path, then by earliest creation date. Returns false if cookies cannot be accessed.
The CookieVisitor object is a python class that implements the
CookieVisitor callbacks. You must keep a strong reference to the
CookieVisitor object while visiting cookies, otherwise it gets destroyed
and the CookieVisitor callbacks won't be called.
| Parameter | Type |
|---|---|
| url | string |
| cookie | Cookie |
| Return | void |
Sets a cookie given a valid URL and a Cookie object.
It will check for disallowed characters (e.g. the ';' character is disallowed
within the cookie value attribute) and fail without setting the cookie if
such characters are found. Returns
false if an invalid URL is specified or if cookies cannot be accessed.
The CEF C++ equivalent function will be called on the IO thread, thus it executes asynchronously, when this method returns the cookie will not yet be set.
TODO: the CEF C++ function returns false if an invalid URL is specified or if cookies cannot be accessed.
| Parameter | Type |
|---|---|
| url | string |
| cookie_name | string |
| Return | void |
Delete all cookies that match the specified parameters. If both |url| and |cookie_name| values are specified all host and domain cookies matching both will be deleted. If only |url| is specified all host cookies (but not domain cookies) irrespective of path will be deleted. If |url| is empty all cookies for all hosts and domains will be deleted. Cookies can alternately be deleted using the Visit*Cookies() methods.
The CEF C++ equivalent function will be called on the IO thread, thus it executes asynchronously, when this method returns the cookies will not yet be deleted.
TODO: the CEF C++ function returns false if a non-empty invalid URL is specified or if cookies cannot be accessed.
| Parameter | Type |
|---|---|
| path | string |
| persist_session_cookies=False | bool |
| Return | bool |
Sets the directory path that will be used for storing cookie data. If |path| is empty data will be stored in memory only. Otherwise, data will be stored at the specified |path|. To persist session cookies (cookies without an expiry date or validity interval) set |persist_session_cookies| to true. Session cookies are generally intended to be transient and most Web browsers do not persist them. Returns false if cookies cannot be accessed.
| Parameter | Type |
|---|---|
| handler | CompletionHandler |
| Return | bool |
Not yet implemented.
Flush the backing store (if any) to disk. If |callback| is non-NULL it will be executed asnychronously on the IO thread after the flush is complete. Returns false if cookies cannot be accessed.
