How can I read cookies on client side ?

[pmalek]

I have just tested this plugin and I have successfully set a cookie in my sails.js application with following code:

    Cookies = require("cookies"),
    Keygrip = require("keygrip"),
    keys = Keygrip(["SEKRIT2", "SEKRIT1"], 'sha256'),

...

    var cookies = new Cookies( req, res, keys );
    cookies.set("username", username, {signed: true});

and I can see this cookie using "Edit this cookie" chrome dev plugin but I cannot read it using jquery

console.log( JSON.stringify($.cookie()) );
var username = $.cookie("username"); 

$.cookie() is empty and $.cookie("username") is undefined.

Ok, I didn't read the documentation. I had to set httpOnly to false

 cookies.set("username", user.username, {signed: true, httpOnly: false});
