Sessy (WIP) Build Status

A implementable session interface. Supports session objects as well as CSRF tokens. Born out out of https://github.com/senchalabs/connect/issues/935.

  • This is low-level, meaning it's just a constructor and a bunch of methods. You would have to create your own middleware for your own framework such as connect/express.
  • Most methods and properties on the prototype are implementable, meaning you can change things however you'd like.
  • All async methods return a thunk for easy integration with generator-based control flow frameworks such as co

API

Session(req, res)

Create a new session instance for a particular request.

app.use(function (req, res, next) {
  // Only the session constructor
  req._session = new Session(req, res)

  // Get the actual session object and attach it to
  req._session.getSession(function (err, session) {
    if (err)
      return next(err)

    req.session = session
    next()
  })
})

Session.extend([prototype])

Creates a new, yet equivalent, Session constructor. Do this so that you don't butcher the original prototype. prototype are additional properties to attach to the new prototype. The following are equivalent:

var App1Session = Session.extend({
  maxAge: 60
})

var App1Session = Session.extend()
App1Session.prototype.maxAge = 60
