# The www/py-cookies,python3 port

## py3-cookies-2.2.1p0 – friendlier RFC 6265-compliant cookie parser/renderer

## Description

    cookies.py is a Python module for working with HTTP cookies: parsing
    and rendering 'Cookie:' request headers and 'Set-Cookie:' response
    headers, and exposing a convenient API for creating and modifying
    cookies. It can be used as a replacement of Python's Cookie.py (aka
    http.cookies).

    Features

    Rendering according to the excellent new RFC 6265 (rather than using
    a unique ad hoc format inconsistently relating to unrealistic, very
    old RFCs which everyone ignored). Uses URL encoding to represent
    non-ASCII by default, like many other languages' libraries

    Liberal parsing, incorporating many complaints about Cookie.py
    barfing on common cookie formats which can be reliably parsed (e.g.
    search 'cookie' on the Python issue tracker)

    Well-documented code, with chapter and verse from RFCs (rather than
    arbitrary, undocumented decisions and huge tables of magic values,
    as you see in Cookie.py).

    Test coverage at 100%, with a much more comprehensive test suite
    than Cookie.py
