var cookie = require("cookie-secure");

var https = require("https");

var fs = require("fs");
const options={
    key : fs.readFileSync(__dirname + "/key.pem"),
    cert : fs.readFileSync(__dirname + "/cert.pem")
}

https.createServer(options, (req, res) => {
    var curCookie = "testHTTPS";
    if(req.url = "/"){
        var co =cookie.setCookieString(req, res, curCookie ,"rve", "",60*60*24,false,true);
        cookie.setCookie(req, res, co, "done",true);

    if(req.url = "/"){
        var co = cookie.setCookieString(req, res,  curCookie,"uemsh", Date(),60*60*24,false, false);
        cookie.setCookie(req, res, co, "done",true);
