NAME

Dancer2::Session::Sereal - Dancer 2 session storage in files with Sereal

VERSION

version 0.004

DESCRIPTION

This module implements Dancer 2 session engine based on Sereal files.

This backend can be used in single-machine production environments, but two things should be kept in mind: The content of the session files is not encrypted or protected in anyway and old session files should be purged by a CRON job.

encoder_args

Arguments to be passed to Sereal::Encoder. If these are not provided in the session configuration, sensible defaults are used.

decoder_args

Arguments to be passed to Sereal::Decoder. If these are not provided in the session configuration, sensible defaults are used.

CONFIGURATION

The setting session should be set to Sereal in order to use this session engine in a Dancer2 application.

Files will be stored to the value of the setting session_dir, whose default value is appdir/sessions.

Arguments for the Sereal::Encoder and Sereal::Decoder objects can be given via the encoder_args and decoder_args. If not provided, they default to snappy => 1, croak_on_bless =>1 and refuse_objects => 1, validate_utf8 => 1, respectively.

Here is an example configuration that use this session engine and stores session files in /tmp/dancer-sessions

session: "Sereal"

engines:
  session:
    Sereal:
      session_dir: "/tmp/dancer-sessions"
      encoder_args:
        snappy:         1
        croak_on_bless: 1
      decoder_args:
        refuse_objects: 1
        validate_utf8:  1
