How remove cookies in cordova 5.1.1

Question

I am using cordova 5.1.1 with crosswalk, I am looking ways to remove cookies, the nearest option I came across is: com.cordova.plugins.cookiemaster which does not support removing cookies. Other option can be com.triarc.cookies which is somehow does not seems to be working with cordova 5.1.1

Any thought will be greatly appreciated.

Update: Cookies are HTTP only.

Many thanks.

Maybe is a duplicate question, but I dont mark it because maybe exists a Cordova solution.

The approach in javascript is this:

function deleteAllCookies() {
    var cookies = document.cookie.split(";");

    for (var i = 0; i < cookies.length; i++) {
        var cookie = cookies[i];
        var eqPos = cookie.indexOf("=");
        var name = eqPos > -1 ? cookie.substr(0, eqPos) : cookie;
        document.cookie = name + "=;expires=Thu, 01 Jan 1970 00:00:00 GMT";
    }
}

Thanks Del, what if cookies are http only? – Nishikant Sep 28 '15 at 16:32
You want to delete only http cookies? – Víctor Sep 28 '15 at 17:16
Ok, I researched and looks like httpOnly cookies can't be accessed via javasciript, so this solution is not valid for your updated question. How are you setting that cookies? are those from your application? – Víctor Sep 28 '15 at 17:22
yes, these are set from Application side. Any way to access them? – Nishikant Sep 29 '15 at 08:03
And how are they added? You can't change to non http cookies? Because I really doubt that you can clean those cookies, as they are to be protected and non-modificable – Víctor Sep 29 '15 at 08:05
PHP side is setting these cookies – Nishikant Sep 29 '15 at 08:11
