I have a Nodejs and Angularjs web app. Everything works perfectly on localhost but when I push my code to my droplet, cookie does not work. Everything that I saved in cookie does not appear on Cookies. I have just created an Amazon VPS and the same problem. I know that cookie is client side but why does it happen ? This is my piece of angular code: $scope.login = function () {
var isEmpty = AuthService.checkEmptyLogin($scope.user);
if (!isEmpty.isErr) {
UserService.login($scope.user).then(function (result) {
if (result.data.success) {
$rootScope.userLogin = result.data.data.name;
//------------------
var day = new Date();
day.setDate(day.getDay() + 30);
var options = {
domain: "localhost",
httpOnly: true,
expires: day
};
// nothing in cookies
$cookies.put('token', result.data.data.token, options);
$cookies.put('name', result.data.data.name, options);
// session storage works fine
$sessionStorage.user = 'heheeheh';
flash.success = result.data.message;
$state.go('home');
} else {
flash.error = result.data.message;
}
});
} else {
$scope.loginMessage = isEmpty.message;
}
