*1: This library supports cookies by default. You may not need http-cookie-agent.
*2: There have proprietary fetch implementation and is not currently supported.
Node.js global fetch
http-cookie-agent supports global fetch since Node.js v18.2.0.

If you want to use another Agent library, wrap the agent in createCookieAgent.
import https from 'node:https';
import { HttpsAgent as KeepAliveAgent } from 'agentkeepalive';
import { CookieJar } from 'tough-cookie';
import { createCookieAgent } from 'http-cookie-agent/http';
const Agent = createCookieAgent(KeepAliveAgent);
const jar = new CookieJar();
const agent = new Agent({ cookies: { jar } });
https.get('https://example.com', { agent }, (res) => {
// ...
});undici
If you want to use another undici Agent library, use CookieClient via factory function.
import { fetch, ProxyAgent } from 'undici';
import { CookieJar } from 'tough-cookie';
import { CookieClient } from 'http-cookie-agent/undici';
const jar = new CookieJar();
const agent = new ProxyAgent({
factory: (origin, opts) => {
return new CookieClient(origin, {
...opts,
cookies: { jar },
});
},
});
await fetch('https://example.com', { dispatcher: agent });If you want to use another undici Client library, wrap the client in createCookieClient.
import { fetch, Agent, MockClient } from 'undici';
import { CookieJar } from 'tough-cookie';
import { createCookieClient } from 'http-cookie-agent/undici';
const CookieClient = createCookieClient(MockClient);
const jar = new CookieJar();
const agent = new Agent({
factory: (origin, opts) => {
return new CookieClient(origin, {
...opts,
cookies: { jar },
});
},
});
await fetch('https://example.com', { dispatcher: agent });Contributing
