无法使用Express 3.0在Node.js中设置cookie'expires'或'maxAge'

Question

I've been trying to set my cookie's expiry date in Node.js using Express 3.0, but nothing is working.

My first attempt:

res.cookie('user', user, { maxAge: 9000, httpOnly: true });

Just ends in a cookie that has an invalid expiry time according to Chrome. Then I tried to set 'expires' instead, like so:

res.cookie('user', user, { expires: new Date(new Date().getTime()+5*60*1000), httpOnly: true });

And now my cookie is just a session cookie.

Does anyone know how to fix this?

Answer 1

You have to use req.session.cookie :

req.session.cookie.expires = false;

req.session.cookie.maxAge = 5 * 60 * 1000;

See also connect docs .

Answer 2

请注意maxAge以毫秒为单位 -

res.cookie('jwtToken', token, { maxAge: 2 * 60 * 60 * 1000, httpOnly: true }); // maxAge: 2 hours

Answer 3

The accepted answer doesn't work for me.. but the original question has the version that does work. For example

var language = 'en';
//10 * 365 * 24 * 60 * 60 * 1000 === 315360000000, or 10 years in milliseconds
var expiryDate = new Date(Number(new Date()) + 315360000000); 
this.__res.cookie('lang', language, { expires: expiryDate, httpOnly: true });
