- * @ngdoc service
- * @name $cookieStore
- * @deprecated
- * sinceVersion="v1.4.0"
- * Please use the {@link ngCookies.$cookies `$cookies`} service instead.
- *
- * @requires $cookies
- *
- * @description
- * Provides a key-value (string-object) storage, that is backed by session cookies.
- * Objects put or retrieved from this storage are automatically serialized or
- * deserialized by AngularJS's `toJson`/`fromJson`.
- *
- * Requires the {@link ngCookies `ngCookies`} module to be installed.
- *
- * @example
- *
- * ```js
- * angular.module('cookieStoreExample', ['ngCookies'])
- *   .controller('ExampleController', ['$cookieStore', function($cookieStore) {
- *     // Put cookie
- *     $cookieStore.put('myFavorite','oatmeal');
- *     // Get cookie
- *     var favoriteCookie = $cookieStore.get('myFavorite');
- *     // Removing a cookie
- *     $cookieStore.remove('myFavorite');
