How to set cookie variable in Magento 2?

In today’s article we are going to describe that how to create cookie variable and assign value into it. We made a module for it and named it “Magemonkeys_General”

The first step is to create a block file for this in Cookie.php location which is app/code/Magemonkeys/General/Block/

<?php
namespace Magemonkeys\General\Block;
use Magento\Framework\View\Element\Template; 

class Cookie extends \Magento\Framework\View\Element\Template 
{
    private $cookieManager;
 
    private $cookieMetadataFactory;
 
    public function __construct(
        \Magento\Framework\Stdlib\CookieManagerInterface $cookieManager,
        \Magento\Framework\Stdlib\Cookie\CookieMetadataFactory $cookieMetadataFactory
    ) {
        $this->cookieManager = $cookieManager;
        $this->cookieMetadataFactory = $cookieMetadataFactory;
    }
 
    public function setCustomCookie($gender = '')
    {
        $publicCookieMetadata = $this->cookieMetadataFactory->createPublicCookieMetadata();
        $publicCookieMetadata->setDurationOneYear();
        $publicCookieMetadata->setPath('/');
        $publicCookieMetadata->setHttpOnly(false);
 
        return $this->cookieManager->setPublicCookie(
            'gender',
            $gender,
            $publicCookieMetadata
        );
    }
 
    public function getCustomCookie()
    {
        return $this->cookieManager->getCookie(
            'gender'
        );
    }
}

<?php

namespace Magemonkeys\General\Block;

use Magento\Framework\View\Element\Template;

class Cookie extends \Magento\Framework\View\Element\Template

{

private $cookieManager;

private $cookieMetadataFactory;

public function __construct(

\Magento\Framework\Stdlib\CookieManagerInterface $cookieManager,

\Magento\Framework\Stdlib\Cookie\CookieMetadataFactory $cookieMetadataFactory

) {

$this->cookieManager = $cookieManager;

$this->cookieMetadataFactory = $cookieMetadataFactory;

}

public function setCustomCookie($gender = '')

{

$publicCookieMetadata = $this->cookieMetadataFactory->createPublicCookieMetadata();

$publicCookieMetadata->setDurationOneYear();

$publicCookieMetadata->setPath('/');

$publicCookieMetadata->setHttpOnly(false);

return $this->cookieManager->setPublicCookie(

'gender',

$gender,

$publicCookieMetadata

);

}

public function getCustomCookie()

{

return $this->cookieManager->getCookie(

'gender'

);

}

Then create cookie.phtml file in below location app/code/Magemonkeys/General/view/

Set cookie :

$blockName = $block->getLayout()->createBlock('Magemonkeys\General\Block\Cookie');
$setcookie = $blockName->setCustomCookie('man');

1 2	$blockName = $block->getLayout()->createBlock('Magemonkeys\General\Block\Cookie'); $setcookie = $blockName->setCustomCookie('man');

Get cookie :

$blockName = $block->getLayout()->createBlock('Magemonkeys\General\Block\Cookie');
echo $getcookie = $blockName->getCustomCookie();

1 2	$blockName = $block->getLayout()->createBlock('Magemonkeys\General\Block\Cookie'); echo $getcookie = $blockName->getCustomCookie();

That’s it.
