How to use cookie in Zend Framework 2?

Question

I cant understand how to use cookies in ZF2? Can some one advise some links with set and get cookie?

Answer 1

simply use the rememberMe() method on the SessionManager to set a cookie

See SessionManager Code on line 260

there also is forgetMe() to remove the cookie

additionally you can configure the defaults for your session manager like this:

Module.php

public function onBootstrap(\Zend\EventManager\EventInterface $e)

    $config = $e->getApplication()
        ->getServiceManager();
        ->get('Configuration');

    $sessionConfig = new SessionConfig();
    $sessionConfig->setOptions($config['session']);
    $sessionManager = new SessionManager($sessionConfig, null, null);
    Session::setDefaultManager($sessionManager);
}

module.config.php

return array(
    'session' => array(
        'remember_me_seconds' => 2419200,
        'use_cookies' => true,
        'cookie_httponly' => true,
    ),
);

See this class for a complete list of configuration options:
