binary-cookies-parser 2.1.2

Python Binary Cookies (de)serializer

⚠️ DEPRECATED: This package is deprecated and therefore obsolete. Please use the new package binarycookies instead.

Binary Cookies

Python library and CLI tool for reading and writing binary cookies files.

Requirements

• Python 3.9 or higher

Installation

pip install binarycookies

If you want to use the parser as CLI, it's recommended to use pipx to install the package in an isolated environment.

pipx install binarycookies

Basic Usage CLI

After installation, you can use the command-line interface to read a binary cookies file:

bcparser <path_to_binary_cookies_file>

Replace <path_to_binary_cookies_file> with the path to the binary cookie file you want to read.

Basic Usage Python

Deserialization

import binarycookies 

with open("path/to/cookies.binarycookies", "rb") as f:
    cookies = binarycookies.load(f)

Serialization

import binarycookies 

cookie = {
    "name": "session_id",
    "value": "abc123",
    "url": "https://example.com",
    "path": "/",
    "create_datetime": "2023-10-01T12:34:56+00:00",
    "expiry_datetime": "2023-12-31T23:59:59+00:00",
    "flag": "Secure"
}

with open("path/to/cookies.binarycookies", "wb") as f:
    binarycookies.dump(cookie, f)

Output Types

The bcparser CLI supports two output types: json (default) and ascii.

JSON Output

The json output type formats the cookies as a JSON array, making it easy to parse and manipulate programmatically.

Example usage:

bcparser path/to/cookies.binarycookies --output json

Example output JSON:

[
  {
    "name": "session_id",
    "value": "abc123",
    "url": "https://example.com",
    "path": "/",
    "create_datetime": "2023-10-01T12:34:56+00:00",
    "expiry_datetime": "2023-12-31T23:59:59+00:00",
    "flag": "Secure"
  },
  {
    "name": "user_token",
    "value": "xyz789",
    "url": "https://example.com",
    "path": "/account",
    "create_datetime": "2023-10-01T12:34:56+00:00",
    "expiry_datetime": "2023-12-31T23:59:59+00:00",
    "flag": "HttpOnly"
  }
]

ASCII Output

The ascii output type formats the cookies in a simple, line-by-line text format, making it easy to read and pipe to other command-line tools.

Example usage:

bcparser path/to/cookies.binarycookies --output ascii

Example output ASCII:

Name: session_id
Value: abc123
URL: https://example.com
