Set cookies in configuration using PHP


I'd like to print a document with PDFreactor using PHP.

Unfortunately, the document generation fails when specifying cookies in the configuration. Leaving out the cookies line prints our login page - with is correct as the page displays a login screen if no session cookie could be identified.

$config = array(
    "document"=> "http://localhost",
    "logLevel"=> LogLevel::DEBUG,
    "javaScriptMode" => JavaScriptMode::ENABLED_TIME_LAPSE,
    "enableDebugMode" => true,
    "cookies" => array("sid" => "abcdefghijklmno")//<-- problematic line
);

Could anybody verify that cookie passing fails with PHP or give advice about the correct syntax?


Solution

  • The issue is caused by a mistake in the syntax of your cookie configuration. The correct syntax would be:

    $config = array(    
        "document"=> "http://localhost",
        "logLevel"=> LogLevel::DEBUG,
        "javaScriptMode" => JavaScriptMode::ENABLED_TIME_LAPSE,
        "enableDebugMode" => true,    
        "cookies" => array(
            array("key" => "sid", "value" => "abcdefghijklmno") // <-- corrected
        )
    );
    

    For multiple cookies:

    "cookies" => array(
        array("key" => "cookiename1", "value" => "cookievalue1"),
        array("key" => "cookiename2", "value" => "cookievalue2")
    )
