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.

   id
       Returns the session's id if it has been loaded, or "undef" otherwise.

   create
       Assign a new ID, and store it server-side if necessary.

   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.

   unload
       Flush the session, and leaves the session object blank.

   loaded
       Returns true if the session has already been loaded.

   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.

   set_continuation ID CONT
       Stores a continuation in the session.

   get_continuation ID
       Pulls a continuation from the current session. Expects a continuation "ID".

   remove_continuation ID
       Removes a continuation with id "ID" from the store.

   continuations
       Return a hash of all the continuations in this session, keyed by the continuations' "id".

   set_cookie
       Sets the session cookie.

   cookie_name
       Returns the current session's cookie_name -- it is the same for all users, but varies according to the port the server is running on.

   expires [VALUE]
       Get or set the session's expiration date, in a format expected by Cache::Cache.

NAME

       Dancer::Session::YAML - YAML-file-based session backend for Dancer

DESCRIPTION

       This module implements a session engine based on YAML files. Session are stored in a session_dir as YAML files. The idea behind this module
       was to provide a transparent session storage for the developer.

       This backend is intended to be used in development environments, when looking inside a session can be useful.

       It's not recommended to use this session engine in production environments.

CONFIGURATION

       The setting session should be set to "YAML" in order to use this session engine in a Dancer application.

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

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

	   session: "YAML"
	   session_dir: "/tmp/dancer-sessions"

METHODS

   reset
       to avoid checking if the sessions directory exists everytime a new session is created, this module maintains a cache of session directories
       it has already created. "reset" wipes this cache out, forcing a test for existence of the sessions directory next time a session is
       created. It takes no argument.

       This is particulary useful if you want to remove the sessions directory on the system where your app is running, but you want this session
       engine to continue to work without having to restart your application.

DEPENDENCY

       This module depends on YAML.
