How can I clear cookies using angular-cookies

Question

Using Angularjs i am working on a mobile app where I need to clear the cookies after logout. The service I got to use is cookie authenticated, so after logout I need to clear them out.

For that I have tried traditional JS procedures to clear those cookies but didn't work.

After doing some more research on it I have added angular-cookies libary and used ngCookies to got access of the $cookies and $cookieStore in my scope. All the examples or SO posts I got says how to add/edit/delete new cookie using $cookies and $cookieStore .

But I am not setting the cookies by myself, its been set dynamically like JSESSIONID,SMSESSION..so on (a big string). When I try $cookieStore.get('JSESSIONID') results undefined. AFAIK cookies are key value pairs, if yes then why I am getting undefined. (Am I wrong somewhere)

Is there anyway I can read all the cookies and reset/clear them using angular-cookies library.

Try this. It will iterate through stored cookies and remove them dynamically.

    angular.forEach($cookies, function(value, key) {
        $cookieStore.remove(key);
    });
