NAME

       Plack::Session::State::Cookie - Basic cookie-based session state

SYNOPSIS

	 use Plack::Builder;
	 use Plack::Middleware::Session;

	 my $app = sub {
	     return [ 200, [ 'Content-Type' => 'text/plain' ], [ 'Hello Foo' ] ];
	 };

	 builder {
	     enable 'Session'; # Cookie is the default state
	     $app;
	 };

DESCRIPTION

       This is a subclass of Plack::Session::State and implements its full interface. This is the default state used in
       Plack::Middleware::Session.

METHODS

       new ( %params )
	   The %params can include path, domain, expires, secure, and httponly options, as well as all the options accepted by
	   Plack::Session::Store.

       path
	   Path of the cookie, this defaults to "/";

       domain
	   Domain of the cookie, if nothing is supplied then it will not be included in the cookie.

       expires
	   Expiration time of the cookie in seconds, if nothing is supplied then it will not be included in the cookie, which means the session
	   expires per browser session.

       secure
	   Secure flag for the cookie, if nothing is supplied then it will not be included in the cookie.

       httponly
	   HttpOnly flag for the cookie, if nothing is supplied then it will not be included in the cookie.

NAME

       Plack::Middleware::Session - Middleware for session management

SYNOPSIS

	 use Plack::Builder;

	 my $app = sub {
	     my $env = shift;
	     my $session = $env->{'psgix.session'};
	     return [
		 200,
		 [ 'Content-Type' => 'text/plain' ],
		 [ "Hello, you've been here for ", $session->{counter}++, "th time!" ],
	     ];
	 };

	 builder {
	     enable 'Session';
	     $app;
	 };

	 # Or, use the File store backend (great if you use multiprocess server)
	 # For more options, see perldoc Plack::Session::Store::File
	 builder {
	     enable 'Session', store => 'File';
	     $app;
	 };

DESCRIPTION

       This is a Plack Middleware component for session management. By default it will use cookies to keep session state and store data in memory.
       This distribution also comes with other state and store solutions. See perldoc for these backends how to use them.

       It should be noted that we store the current session as a hash reference in the "psgix.session" key inside the $env where you can access it
       as needed.

       NOTE: As of version 0.04 the session is stored in "psgix.session" instead of "plack.session".

   State
       Plack::Session::State
	   This will maintain session state by passing the session through the request params. It does not do this automatically though, you are
	   responsible for passing the session param.

       Plack::Session::State::Cookie
	   This will maintain session state using browser cookies.

   Store
       Plack::Session::Store
	   This is your basic in-memory session data store. It is volatile storage and not recommended for multiprocessing environments. However
	   it is very useful for development and testing.

       Plack::Session::Store::File
	   This will persist session data in a file. By default it uses Storable but it can be configured to have a custom serializer and
	   deserializer.

       Plack::Session::Store::Cache
	   This will persist session data using the Cache interface.

       Plack::Session::Store::Null
	   Sometimes you don't care about storing session data, in that case you can use this noop module.

OPTIONS

       The following are options that can be passed to this module.

       state
	   This is expected to be an instance of Plack::Session::State or an object that implements the same interface. If no option is provided
	   the default Plack::Session::State::Cookie will be used.

       store
	   This is expected to be an instance of Plack::Session::Store or an object that implements the same interface. If no option is provided
	   the default Plack::Session::Store will be used.

	   It should be noted that this default is an in-memory volatile store is only suitable for development (or single process servers). For a
	   more robust solution see Plack::Session::Store::File or Plack::Session::Store::Cache.

BUGS

       All complex software has bugs lurking in it, and this module is no exception. If you find a bug please either email me, or add the bug to
       cpan-RT.
