req.signedCookies
A dictionary containing all the signed cookies from the request object, where a signed cookie is one that is protected against modification by the client. This protection is provided by a Base64-encoded HMAC of the cookie value. When retrieving the cookie, if the HMAC signature does not match based on the cookie's value, then the cookie is not available as a member of the req.signedCookies object.
Purpose
#A dictionary containing all of the signed cookies from this request (req).
Usage
#req.signedCookies;
Example
#Adding a signed cookie named "chocolatechip" with value "Yummy:
res.cookie('chocolatechip', 'Yummy', {signed:true});
Retrieving the cookie:
req.signedCookies.chocolatechip;
// "Yummy"
