Does anyone have an idea for a regex that can match multiple cookies (name, value pairs, combined by '=' and separated by '; ') in a string. With my design I can only match one cookie so far.
^(?<cookie>(?<name>.+[^;])=(?<value>.*[^;])(;\s*)?)+$
I would like to respect all special characters that cookies can contain. I'd like to use a regex and not rely on split and other functions provided by js.
Thank you very much,
Cheers!
I slightly tweaked you regex to this: /(?<cookie>(?<name>[^=]+)=(?<value>[^;]+);\s*)/gm
For a test string: "name1=value1;name2=value2;"
This produces the matches:
match1: name1=value1;
cookie: name1=value1;
name: name1
value: value1
match2: name2=value2;
cookie: name2=value2;
name: name2
value: value2
