# Cookies
## Request
Request cookies can be accessed via the request.cookie dictionary
### Example
```python
from sanic import Sanic
from sanic.response import text
@app.route("/cookie")
async def test(request):
test_cookie = request.cookies.get('test')
return text("Test cookie set to: {}".format(test_cookie))
```
## Response
Response cookies can be set like dictionary values and
have the following parameters available:
* expires - datetime - Time for cookie to expire on the client's browser
* path - string - The Path attribute specifies the subset of URLs to
which this cookie applies
* comment - string - Cookie comment (metadata)
* domain - string - Specifies the domain for which the
cookie is valid. An explicitly specified domain must always
start with a dot.
* max-age - number - Number of seconds the cookie should live for
* secure - boolean - Specifies whether the cookie will only be sent via
HTTPS
* httponly - boolean - Specifies whether the cookie cannot be read
by javascript
### Example
```python
from sanic import Sanic
from sanic.response import text
@app.route("/cookie")
async def test(request):
response = text("There's a cookie up in this response")
response.cookies['test'] = 'It worked!'
response.cookies['test']['domain'] = '.gotta-go-fast.com'
response.cookies['test']['httponly'] = True
