php - How to set cookies in laravel 5 independently inside controller

Question

I want to set cookies in Laravel 5 independently

i.e., Don't want to use

return response($content)->withCookie(cookie('name', 'value'));

I just want to set cookie in some page and retrieve in some other page

Creation can be like this

$cookie = Cookie::make('name', 'value', 60);

But how can i retrieve those cookies in some controller itself ?

Answer 1

You may try this:

Cookie::queue($name, $value, $minutes);

This will queue the cookie to use it later and later it will be added with the response when response is ready to be sent. You may check the documentation on Laravel website.

Update (Retrieving A Cookie Value):

$value = Cookie::get('name');

---

Note: If you set a cookie in the current request then you'll be able to retrieve it on the next subsequent request.
