NAME Dancer2::Session::DBIC - DBIx::Class session engine for Dancer2 VERSION 0.004 DESCRIPTION This module implements a session engine for Dancer2 by serializing the session, and storing it in a database via DBIx::Class. The default serialization method is JSON, though one can specify any serialization format you want. YAML and Storable are viable alternatives. JSON was chosen as the default serialization format, as it is fast, terse, and portable. SYNOPSIS Example configuration: session: "DBIC" engines: session: DBIC: dsn: "DBI:mysql:database=testing;host=127.0.0.1;port=3306" # DBI Data Source Name schema_class: "Interchange6::Schema" # DBIx::Class schema user: "user" # Username used to connect to the database password: "password" # Password to connect to the database resultset: "MySession" # DBIx::Class resultset, defaults to Session id_column: "my_session_id" # defaults to sessions_id data_column: "my_session_data" # defaults to session_data SESSION EXPIRATION A timestamp field that updates when a session is updated is recommended, so you can expire sessions server-side as well as client-side. This session engine will not automagically remove expired sessions on the server, but with a timestamp field as above, you should be able to to do this manually. ATTRIBUTES schema_class DBIx::Class schema class, e.g. Interchange6::Schema. resultset DBIx::Class resultset, defaults to `Session'. id_column Column for session id, defaults to `sessions_id'. data_column Column for session data, defaults to `session_data'. dsn DBI dsn to connect to the database. user Database username. password Database password. schema DBIx::Class schema. METHODS _flush Write the session to the database. Returns the session object. _retrieve($id) Look for a session with the given id. Returns the session object if found, `undef' if not. Dies if the session was found, but could not be deserialized. _destroy() Remove the current session object from the database.
