How to access cookies in AngularJS

Question

What s the AngularJS way to access cookies   I ve seen references to both a service and a module for cookies  but no examples     Is there  or is there not an AngularJS canonical approach

This is how you can set and get cookie values. This is what I was originally looking for when I found this question.

Note we use $cookieStore instead of $cookies

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html ng-app="myApp">
<head>
  <script src="http://code.angularjs.org/1.0.0rc10/angular-1.0.0rc10.js"></script>
  <script src="http://code.angularjs.org/1.0.0rc10/angular-cookies-1.0.0rc10.js"></script>
  <script>
    angular.module('myApp', ['ngCookies']);
    function CookieCtrl($scope, $cookieStore) {
      $scope.lastVal = $cookieStore.get('tab');

      $scope.changeTab = function(tabName){
          $scope.lastVal = tabName;
          $cookieStore.put('tab', tabName);
      };
    }
  </script>
</head>
<body ng-controller="CookieCtrl">
    <!-- ... -->
</body>
</html>

Angular deprecated  cookieStore in version 1 4 x  so use  cookies instead if you are using latest version of angular  Syntax remain same for  cookieStore  amp   cookies      cookies put  key    value     var value    cookies get  key      See the Docs for an API overview  Mind also that the cookie service has been enhanced with some new important features like setting expiration  see this answer  and domain  see CookiesProvider Docs    Note that  in version 1 3 x or below   cookies has a different syntax than above     cookies key    value   var value    cookies value     Also if you are using bower  make sure to type your package name correctly    bower install angular-cookies X Y Z    where X Y Z is the AngularJS version you are running   There s another package in bower  angular-cookie  without the  s   which is not the official angular package

FYI  I put together a JSFiddle of this using the  cookieStore  two controllers  a  rootScope  and AngularjS 1 0 6  It s on JSFifddle as http   jsfiddle net krimple 9dSb2  as a base if you re messing around with this     The gist of it is   Javascript  var myApp   angular module  myApp     ngCookies      myApp controller  CookieCtrl   function   scope   rootScope   cookieStore         scope bump   function              var lastVal    cookieStore get  lastValue            if   lastVal                 rootScope lastVal   1            else                rootScope lastVal   lastVal   1                     cookieStore put  lastValue    rootScope lastVal              myApp controller  ShowerCtrl   function            HTML   lt div ng-app  myApp  gt       lt div id  lastVal  ng-controller  ShowerCtrl  gt    lastVal    lt  div gt       lt div id  button-holder  ng-controller  CookieCtrl  gt           lt button ng-click  bump    gt Bump  lt  button gt       lt  div gt   lt  div gt

This answer has been updated to reflect latest stable angularjs version  One important note is that  cookieStore is a thin wrapper surrounding  cookies  They are pretty much the same in that they only work with session cookies  Although  this answers the original question  there are other solutions you may wish to consider such as using localstorage  or jquery cookie plugin  which would give you more fine-grained control and do serverside cookies  Of course doing so in angularjs means you probably would want to wrap them in a service and use  scope apply to notify angular of changes to models  in some cases    One other note and that is that there is a slight difference between the two when pulling data out depending on if you used  cookie to store value or  cookieStore  Of course  you d really want to use one or the other   In addition to adding reference to the js file you need to inject ngCookies into your app definition such as    angular module  myApp     ngCookies       you should then be good to go   Here is a functional minimal example  where I show that cookieStore is a thin wrapper around cookies    lt  DOCTYPE html gt   lt html ng-app  myApp  gt   lt head gt      lt link rel  stylesheet  type  text css  href    maxcdn bootstrapcdn com bootstrap 3 2 0 css bootstrap min css  gt   lt  head gt   lt body ng-controller  MyController  gt      lt h3 gt Cookies lt  h3 gt     lt pre gt   usingCookies json   lt  pre gt     lt h3 gt Cookie Store lt  h3 gt     lt pre gt   usingCookieStore json   lt  pre gt      lt script src    ajax googleapis com ajax libs angularjs 1 2 19 angular js  gt  lt  script gt     lt script src    ajax googleapis com ajax libs angularjs 1 2 19 angular-cookies js  gt  lt  script gt     lt script gt      angular module  myApp     ngCookies         app controller  MyController     scope    cookies    cookieStore                           function  scope  cookies  cookieStore          var someSessionObj      innerObj     somesessioncookievalue          cookies dotobject   someSessionObj       scope usingCookies      cookies dotobject     cookies dotobject   cookieStore get     cookieStore get  dotobject            cookieStore put  obj   someSessionObj        scope usingCookieStore      cookieStore get     cookieStore get  obj     cookies dotobject     cookies obj              lt  script gt    lt  body gt   lt  html gt    The steps are    include angular js include angular-cookies js inject ngCookies into your app module  and make sure you reference that module in the ng-app attribute  add a  cookies or  cookieStore parameter to the controller access the cookie as a member variable using the dot     operator -- OR -- access cookieStore using put get methods

The original accepted answer mentions jquery cookie plugin  A few months ago though  it was renamed to js-cookie and the jQuery dependency removed  One of the reasons was just to make it easy to integrate with other frameworks  like Angular   Now  if you want to integrate js-cookie with angular  it is as easy as something like   module factory   cookies   function       return Cookies noConflict          And that s it  No jQuery  No ngCookies     You can also create custom instances to handle specific server-side cookies that are written differently  Take for example PHP  that convert the spaces  in the server-side to a plus sign   instead of also percent-encode it   module factory   phpCookies   function       return Cookies      noConflict        withConverter function  value  name           return value                Decode all characters according to the  encodeURIComponent  spec              replace     0-9A-Z  2    g  decodeURIComponent                 Decode the plus sign to spaces              replace     g                     The usage for a custom Provider would be something like this   module service   customDataStore      phpCookies   function  phpCookies       this storeData   function  data         phpCookies set   data   data           this containsStoredData   function         return phpCookies get   data                I hope this helps anyone   See detailed info in this issue  https   github com js-cookie js-cookie issues 103  For detailed docs on how to integrate with server-side  see here  https   github com js-cookie js-cookie blob master SERVER SIDE md
