Saving cookie using angular 4

Question

I have a ldap based authentication in place where if the user credentials are matched , a bearer token and an userId is received as a response in JSON format. Now I need to save these values in cookie. I am using angular 4. I could not find any cookie related example for angular 4.

Answer 1

I know it's a bit late to answer this but you can use ngx-cookie-service node package for it.

1. Install

npm install ngx-cookie-service --save

2. Then add the cookie service to your app.module.ts as a provider:

@NgModule({
  ...,
  providers: [ CookieService ]
})

3. Then, import and inject it into a component:

import { CookieService } from 'ngx-cookie-service';

constructor( private cookieService: CookieService ) { }

  ngOnInit(): void {
    this.cookieService.set( 'Test', 'Hello World' );
    this.cookieValue = this.cookieService.get('Test');
  }

4. You are all set
