kooky
Package kooky contains routines to reach into cookie stores for Chrome and Safari, and retrieve the cookies.
You don't usually want to do this, but when you do, you do. Apparently it's common enough that there is example code scattered around the net in various languages. If you wanted it in Go, you're in luck.
It aspires to be pure Go (I spent quite a while making go-sqlite/sqlite3 work for it), but I guess the keychain parts (keybase/go-keychain) mess that up.
Status
Basic functionality works, on MacOS. I expect Linux to work too, since it doesn't encrypt. The API is currently not expected to be at all stable.
PRs more than welcome.
TODOs
- Make it work on Windows. (Look at this and this to learn how to decrypt.)
- Handle rows in Chrome's cookie DB with other than 14 columns (?)
- Make it work for Firefox.
Example usage
usr, _ := user.Current()
var cookies []*kooky.Cookie
var err error
chrome := false
if chrome {
cookiesFile := fmt.Sprintf("%s/Library/Application Support/Google/Chrome/Default/Cookies", usr.HomeDir)
cookies, err = kooky.ReadChromeCookies(cookiesFile, "", "", time.Time{})
} else {
cookiesFile := fmt.Sprintf("%s/Library/Cookies/Cookies.binarycookies", usr.HomeDir)
cookies, err = kooky.ReadSafariCookies(cookiesFile, "", "", time.Time{})
}
if err != nil {
return err
}
for _, cookie := range cookies {
fmt.Println(cookie)
}

type Cookie ¶
type Cookie struct {
Domain string
Name string
Path string
Expires time.Time
Secure bool
HttpOnly bool
Creation time.Time
