How to Create Creating a Cookie in Laravel ?..

Answer / rishabh khanna

Cookie can be created by global cookie helper of Laravel.
It is an instance of SymfonyComponentHttpFoundationCookie.
The cookie can be attached to the response using the withCookie() method.
Create a response instance of IlluminateHttpResponse class to call the withCookie() method.
Cookie generated by the Laravel are encrypted and signed and it can’t be modified or read by the client.

Here is a sample code with explanation.

//Create a response instance
$response = new IlluminateHttpResponse('Hello World');

//Call the withCookie() method with the response method
$response->withCookie(cookie('name', 'value', $minutes));

//return the response
return $response;

Cookie can be set forever by using the forever method as shown in the below code.

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