RedisSessions

Travis Build Status Windows Tests Coveralls Coverage

Hex.pm Version Deps Status Hex.pm

This is a Elixir module to keep sessions in a Redis datastore and add some useful methods. The main purpose of this module is to generalize sessions across application server platforms.

It's also an elixir port of the node.js module redis-sessions.

Installation

If available in Hex, the package can be installed as:

  1. Add redis_sessions to your list of dependencies in mix.exs:
```elixir
def deps do
  [{:redis_sessions, "~> 0.1.0"}]
end
```
  1. Ensure redis_sessions is started before your application:
```elixir
def application do
  [applications: [:redis_sessions]]
end
```

Usage

Basic methods

create a session - create/6

{ :ok, %{ token: token } } = RedisSessions.Client.create( "appname", "the_users_id", "127.0.0.1" )

Get a session - get/3

session_token = "q3uvHvVqEcnTAaIsWSkgAcvDSKsTyVyameD3s7TjBU1lMVeB3hW7bsgZitfoxqkr"

{:ok, session } = RedisSessions.Client.create( "appname", session_token )
# session ->  %{ id: "the_users_id", r:2, w:1, idle: 3, ttl: 3600, d: nil }

Add additional data to the session - set/4

session_token = "q3uvHvVqEcnTAaIsWSkgAcvDSKsTyVyameD3s7TjBU1lMVeB3hW7bsgZitfoxqkr"
session_data = %{ "my" => "additional", "data" => 2, "save" => "to", "my" => "session" }

{:ok, session } = RedisSessions.Client.set( "appname", session_token, session_data )
# session ->  %{ id: "the_users_id", r:2, w:2, idle: 3, ttl: 3600, ip: "127.0.0.1", d: %{ "my" => "additional", "data" => 2, "save" => "to", "my" => "session" } }

Kill a session - kill/3

session_token = "q3uvHvVqEcnTAaIsWSkgAcvDSKsTyVyameD3s7TjBU1lMVeB3hW7bsgZitfoxqkr"

{:ok, %{ kill: 1 } } = RedisSessions.Client.kill( "appname", session_token, session_data )

Special user methods

Get all sessions of a user's id - soid/3

{:ok, sessions } = RedisSessions.Client.soid( "appname", "the_users_id" )
# sessions ->  [
#   %{ id: "the_users_id", r:2,  w:2,  idle: 3,  ttl: 3600, ip: "127.0.0.1", d: %{ "my" => "additional", "data" => 2, "save" => "to", "my" => "session" } },
#   %{ id: "the_users_id", r:13, w:23, idle: 42, ttl: 3600, ip: "192.168.1.23" }
# ]

Kill all sessions of a user's id - killsoid/3

{:ok, %{ kill: 3 } } = RedisSessions.Client.killsoid( "appname", "the_users_id" )

Special app methods

Get the count of active sessions - activity/3

{:ok, %{ activity: 1 } } = RedisSessions.Client.activity( "appname" )

Get all sessions of an app - soapp/3

{:ok, sessions } = RedisSessions.Client.soapp( "appname" )
# sessions ->  [
#   %{ id: "the_users_id", r: 2,  w: 2,  idle: 3,   ttl: 3600, ip: "127.0.0.1", d: %{ "my" => "additional", "data" => 2, "save" => "to", "my" => "session" } },
#   %{ id: "the_users_id", r: 13, w: 23, idle: 42,  ttl: 3600, ip: "192.168.1.23" },
#   %{ id: "another_user", r: 1,  w: 42, idle: 666, ttl: 9999, ip: "192.168.1.13" }
# ]

Kill all sessions aof an app - killall/2

{:ok, %{ kill: 3 } } = RedisSessions.Client.killall( "appname" )

Session Attributes

A Session map will look like:

%{ id: "the_users_id", r:2, w:1, idle: 3, ttl: 3600, ip: "127.0.0.1", d: nil }

Attributes:

  • id Binary: The sessions/users id you defined during the .create/6 method.
  • idle Number: The idle time of this session in seconds
  • r Number: The number of reads of this session
  • w Number: The number of writes to this session
  • ttl Number: The time to live for this session in seconds
  • ip Binary: The ip you set during create. Could be used to differ the same user on different devices/platforms.
  • d Map: A map of additional data saved to this session

Config

  • ns Binary defaukt: rs: redis sessions namespace
  • wipe Number defaukt: 600: redis sessions wipe timeout. If set to 0 automatic wipeing will be disabled
  • redis Binary: redis connection string. E.g. "redis://localhost:6379/0",
  • pool_size Number defaukt: 1: redix/poolboy pool size
  • pool_overflow Number defaukt: 0: redix/poolboy pool overflow
