get / set cookie from ssr without using server middleware

[agencewebcom]

Hello,
I try to find a solution, but I'm not sure that it really exists. I have a distant api, so I don't need/want to use any api on the server side using server middleware, I just want to set / get cookies or data on local storage from my store.

Is it possible ?

You can get cookies from context.req and set with context.res

Yes, it is. First, you may use nuxt-ommunity/axios-module, it will make all the work automatically. Also you can do it manually, via Nuxt context injection, for example, in the asyncData hook:

async asyncData({req}) {
      const headers = req && req.headers
      const {data} = await axios('/api/entries', {headers: headers})
}

So cookies along with other headers will be proxied to API server from a client, or you may filter only requried header and use it.

Great!!

I will use nuxt/axios module to store the token and other informations which will be shared with all my requests, but yes, the module do exactly the same thing you told me.
But, if I want to store some user information and don't want to be limited by the max size of the cookies, it's better to use the local storage, which will be accessible only from the client side, or an express route (such as /server/save-my-data) with server middleware and store it in the session?
If you think that the question is not inherent to post, I will create another one
Thank you
