""" A flexible module for cookie parsing and manipulation. This module differs from usual standards-compliant cookie modules in a number of ways. We try to be as permissive as possible, and to retain even mal-formed information. Duplicate cookies are preserved in parsing, and can be set in formatting. We do attempt to escape and quote values where needed, but will not reject data that violate the specs. Parsing accepts the formats in RFC6265 and partially RFC2109 and RFC2965. We do not parse the comma-separated variant of Set-Cookie that allows multiple cookies to be set in a single header. Technically this should be feasible, but it turns out that violations of RFC6265 that makes the parsing problem indeterminate are much more common than genuine occurences of the multi-cookie variants. Serialization follows RFC6265. http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6265 http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc2109 http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc2965 """ # TODO # - Disallow LHS-only Cookie values import re import odict def _read_until(s, start, term): """ Read until one of the characters in term is reached.
