MaxAge is not created from the token to allow more control over the cookie expiration date.\n\n## Installation\n\n```shell\nnpm install cookie-token --save\n```\n\n[![NPM](https://nodei.co/npm/cookie-token.png)](https://nodei.co/npm/cookie-token/)\n\n\n## Question\n\nFor questions and feedback please use our [twitter account](https://twitter.com/bredeleca).
