Is it possible to scan for cookies in none default Chromium profiles? #45

Closed PolicyPuma4 closed 11 months ago

I use multiple profiles in Edge for work. I seem to be unable to fetch cookies from my none default work profile. Is this possible with this package?

I've just come across this issue with a little helper application I made, which I am gutting in order to use the kooky package (to support multiple browsers): while some user's cookies are stored in ~/.config/google-chrome/Default/Cookies, some other users' cookies are stored in ~/.config/google-chrome/Profile 1/Cookies. I cannot explain the difference as I have no control over or knowledge of the users computers, but being able to look in more than one place would be extremely useful.

You can use kooky.FindAllCookieStores() while registering only the chrome cookie finder: import _ "github.com/zellyn/kooky/browser/chrome" this should locate all chrome profiles, which you then can filter for the one you want to use.

Or if you want to read a specific file, then load it with the browser specific ReadCookies() function: chrome.ReadCookies().
