Bug 220118 – Web Inspector: Copy cookie as Netscape HTTP Cookie File format

• Status: NEW
• Component: Web Inspector

[Ryan Govostes]

`curl` and other tools can read cookies from a cookies.txt file in Netscape HTTP Cookie File format.

It would be great if copying a cookie from the Storage tab of the Inspector used this format.

There is some documentation on this format here: https://curl.se/docs/http-cookies.html

Probably a bad attempt at a function to convert the tabular format that gets copied now to the cookies.txt format. Assumes the column visibility and ordering settings (which I think are default).

(function (cookies) {
    return "# Netscape HTTP Cookie File\n" + cookies.split("\n").map( (cookie) => {
        let [name, value, domain, path, expires, size, secure, httponly, samesite] = cookie.split("\t")
        expires = Date.parse(expires) / 1000
        return domain + "\t" + (!!samesite ? "FALSE" : "TRUE") + "\t" + path + "\t" + (!!secure ? "FALSE" : "TRUE") + "\t" + expires + "\t" + name + "\t" + value
    }).join("\n")
})(the_cookies)
