cookie.chrome

Leetcode.com only permits one live session for same account, which means if you login successfully via leetcode-cli, your existing session in browser will get expired, and vice versa.

This plugin enables leetcode-cli to try to reuse the existing session in your chrome borwser on the same computer.

If succeed, you can keep leetcode-cli and chrome both alive in the same time.

If failed, it will fall back to normal login to leetcode.com as before.

Requirement

In short it's case by case since it varies on different platforms (Mac/Linux/Windows), different chrome versions, even different cookie encryption versions (v10/v11).

Linux

Make sure secret-tool is available:

$ sudo apt-get install libsecret-tools

Windows

Make sure build environment is ready before installing plugin:

$ npm install -g windows-build-tools
$ npm config set msvs_version 2015 -g

Config

  • profile: chrome profile in use, default value is "Default".

Set Config

$ leetcode config plugins:cookie.chrome:profile "Your Profile"

Unset Config

$ leetcode config -d plugins:cookie.chrome

Example

{
	"plugins": {
		"cookie.chrome": {
			"profile": "Profile 2"
		}
	}
}

Usage

If enabled, the login will try to reuse existing chrome cookies. You can verify it by printing debug output as below.

$ leetcode user -l -v
login: <you account>
pass:
[DEBUG] running cookie.chrome.login
[DEBUG] running cookie.chrome.signin
[DEBUG] try to copy leetcode cookies from chrome ...
[DEBUG] Successfully copied leetcode cookies!
[DEBUG] running leetcode.getFavorites
Successfully login as <your account>
