NAME
Catalyst::Plugin::Session::Store::BerkeleyDB - store sessions in a berkeleydb
SYNOPSIS
package YourApp;
use Catalyst qw/Session Session::State::Cookie Session::Store::BerkeleyDB/;
DESCRIPTION
This module will store Catalyst sessions in a Berkeley database managed by BerkeleyDB::Manager
. Unlike other storage mechanisms, sessions are never lost before their expiration time.
To cleanup old sessions, you might want to make sure $c->delete_expired_sessions
is run periodically.
CONFIGURATION
You can configure this module in a number of ways. By default, the module will create a Berkeley database called "catalyst_sessions" in a directory called "sessions" in your app's temp directory.
You can customize this, though, by setting the values of the "manager" and "database" keys in $c->config->{'Plugin::Session'}
.
The manager
key can be either an instance of BerkeleyDB::Manager
, or it can be a hash to pass to the constructor of BerkeleyDB::Manager
. (Or it can be empty, and we will use sane defaults.)
The database
key can be the result of $manager->open_db( ... )
, or it can be a string naming the database. By default, we use "catalyst_sessions".
Any other keys in the hash will be ignored by this module, but might be relevant to other session plugins.
