NAME¶
Jifty::Web::Session - A Jifty session handler
SYNOPSIS¶
In your
etc/config.yml (optional):
framework:
Web:
# The default ($PORT is replaced by the port the app is running on)
SessionCookieName: JIFTY_SID_$PORT
new¶
Returns a new, empty session.
Returns the session's id if it has been loaded, or "undef" otherwise.
create¶
Creates a new row in the Jifty::Model::Session table.
load [ID]¶
Load up the current session from the given "ID", or the appropriate
cookie (see "cookie_name") otherwise. If both of those fail, creates
a session in the database.
load_by_kv key => value¶
Load up the current session from the given (key, value) pair. If no matching
session could be found, it will create a new session with the key, value set.
Be sure that what you're loading by is unique. If you're loading a session
based on, say, a timestamp, then you're asking for trouble.
get KEY [TYPE]¶
Returns the value for "KEY" for the current user's session.
"TYPE", which defaults to "key", allows accessing of other
namespaces in the session, including "metadata" and
"continuation".
set KEY => VALUE, [TYPE]¶
Sets the value "VALUE" for "KEY" for the session.
"TYPE", which defaults to "key", allows values to be set
in other namespaces, including "metadata" and
"continuation". "VALUE" can be an arbitrary perl data
structure -- "Jifty::Web::Session" will serialize it for you.
remove KEY, [TYPE]¶
Remove key "KEY" from the cache. "TYPE" defaults to
"key".
remove_all¶
Removes the session from the database entirely.
continuations¶
Return a hash of all the continuations in this session, keyed by the
continuations' "id".
