Flask: How to remove cookies?

Question

I set cookies with the code suggested in the docs:

from flask import make_response

@app.route(\'/\')
def index():
    resp = make_response(render_template(.         


        

Answer 1

We can make us of delete_cookie() available from flask.Response.

resp.delete_cookie('username')

This will delete the cookie on response. Here is delete_cookie documentation.

Also you may want to have add path (default set to '/') and domain (default set to None).

resp.delete_cookie('username', path='/', domain='yourdomain.com')

Here is the interpreter screenshot which shows delete_cookie object in flask.Response.
