title: Encrypt Cookie

Encrypt middleware for [Fiber](https://github.com/gofiber/fiber) which encrypts cookie values. Note: this middleware does not encrypt cookie names.
## Signatures
```go
// Intitializes the middleware
func New(config ...Config) fiber.Handler
// Returns a random 32 character long string
func GenerateKey() string
```
## Examples
Import the middleware package that is part of the Fiber web framework
```go
import (
"github.com/gofiber/fiber/v2"
"github.com/gofiber/fiber/v2/middleware/encryptcookie"
)
```
After you initiate your Fiber app, you can use the following possibilities:
```go
// Default middleware config
app.Use(encryptcookie.New(encryptcookie.Config{
Key: "secret-thirty-2-character-string",
}))
// Get / reading out the encrypted cookie
app.Get("/", func(c *fiber.Ctx) error {
return c.SendString("value=" + c.Cookies("test"))
})
// Post / create the encrypted cookie
app.Post("/", func(c *fiber.Ctx) error {
c.Cookie(&fiber.Cookie{
Name: "test",
Value: "SomeThing",
})
return nil
})
```
## Config
```go
type Config struct {
// Next defines a function to skip this middleware when returned true.
//
// Optional. Default: nil
Next func(c *fiber.Ctx) bool
// Array of cookie keys that should not be encrypted.
//
// Optional. Default: ["csrf_"]
Except []string
// Base64 encoded unique key to encode & decode cookies.
//
// Required. Key length should be 32 characters.
// You may use `encryptcookie.GenerateKey()` to generate a new key.
Key string
// Custom function to encrypt cookies.
//
// Optional. Default: EncryptCookie
Encryptor func(decryptedString, key string) (string, error)
// Custom function to decrypt cookies.
//
// Optional. Default: DecryptCookie
Decryptor func(encryptedString, key string) (string, error)
}
```
## Default Config
```go
// `Key` must be a 32 character string. It's used to encrpyt the values, so make sure it is random and keep it secret.
// You can call `encryptcookie.GenerateKey()` to create a random key for you.
// Make sure not to set `Key` to `encryptcookie.GenerateKey()` because that will create a new key every run.
app.Use(encryptcookie.New(encryptcookie.Config{
Key: "secret-thirty-2-character-string",
}))
```
## Usage of CSRF and Encryptcookie Middlewares with Custom Cookie Names
Normally, encryptcookie middleware skips `csrf_` cookies. However, it won't work when you use custom cookie names for CSRF. You should update `Except` config to avoid this problem. For example:
```go
app.Use(encryptcookie.New(encryptcookie.Config{
Key: "secret-thirty-2-character-string",
Except: []string{"csrf_1"}, // exclude CSRF cookie
}))
app.Use(csrf.New(csrf.Config{
KeyLookup: "form:test",
CookieName: "csrf_1",
CookieHTTPOnly: true,
}))
```
