Cookies.set doesn't set the value in cookie (js-cookie)

I'm trying to set the some data inside of cookie using js-cookie. but somehow it's not setting in the cookie. following is my code:

const setCookie = (name: string, value: string, expires: Date) => {
  Cookies.set(name, value, {expires})
}

and this is the result when I console.log this line :

 UserId=1; path=/; expires=Thu, 09 Apr 2020 15:26:37 GMT

I thought that path=/ is the problem, so I've tried to set the path as well, but didn't work. Does anyone have idea why is not setting into the cookie?

Updated: data passed to name, value, expires are :

UserId, 1, Thu Apr 09 2020 11:26:37 GMT-0400 (Eastern Daylight Time)

Solution

  • Expires parameter should be a number which indicate how much days until your cookie will expire

    just update your function as follow

    const setCookie = (name: string, value: string, expires: number) => {
  Cookies.set(name, value, {expires})
}
