NAME

Plack::Middleware::Session::Simple - Make Session Simple

SYNOPSIS

use Plack::Builder;
use Cache::Memcached::Fast;

my $app = sub {
    my $env = shift;
    my $counter = $env->{'psgix.session'}->{counter}++;
    [200,[], ["counter => $counter"]];
};

builder {
    enable 'Session::Simple',
        store => Cache::Memcached::Fast::Safe->new({servers=>[..]}),
        cookie_name => 'myapp_session';
    $app
};

DESCRIPTION

Plack::Middleware::Session::Simple is a yet another session management module. This middleware has compatibility with Plack::Middleware::Session by supporting psgix.session and psgi.session.options. You can reduce unnecessary accessing to store and Set-Cookie header.

This module uses Cookie to keep session state. does not support URI based session state.

OPTIONS

• store

  object instance that has get, set, and remove methods.

• cookie_name

  This is the name of the session key, it defaults to 'simple_session'.

• keep_empty

  If disabled, Plack::Middleware::Session::Simple does not output Set-Cookie header and store session until session are used. You can reduce Set-Cookie header and access to session store that is not required. (default: true/enabled)

    builder {
        enable 'Session::Simple',
            store => Cache::Memcached::Fast::Safe->new({servers=>[..]}),
            cookie_name => 'myapp_session',
            keep_empty => 0;
        mount '/' => sub {
            my $env = shift;
            [200,[], ["ok"]];
        },
        mount '/login' => sub {
            my $env = shift;
            $env->{'psgix.session'}->{user} = 'session user'
            [200,[], ["login"]];
        },
    };
    
    my $res = $app->(req_to_psgi(GET "/")); #res does not have Set-Cookie    
    my $res = $app->(req_to_psgi(GET "/login")); #res has Set-Cookie
  

  If you have a plan to use session_id as csrf token, you must not disable keep_empty.

• path

  Path of the cookie, this defaults to "/";

• domain

  Domain of the cookie, if nothing is supplied then it will not be included in the cookie.

• expires

  Cookie's expires date time. several formats are supported. see Cookie::Baker for details. if nothing is supplied then it will not be included in the cookie, which means the session expires per browser session.

• secure

  Secure flag for the cookie, if nothing is supplied then it will not be included in the cookie.

• httponly

  HttpOnly flag for the cookie, if nothing is supplied then it will not be included in the cookie.

• sid_generator

  CodeRef that used to generate unique session ids, by default it uses SHA1

• sid_validator

  Regexp that used to validate session id in Cookie

• serializer

  serialize,deserialize method. Optional. This is useful with Cache::FastMmap

    my $cfm = Cache::FastMmap->new(raw_values => 1);
    my $decoder = Sereal::Decoder->new();
    my $encoder = Sereal::Encoder->new();
    builder {
      enable 'Session::Simple',
          store => $fm,
          serializer => [ sub { $encoder->encode($_[0]) }, sub { $decoder->decode($_[0]) } ],
      $app;
    };
