Database container

Database container -- Store session data in a database with HTTP_Session

Overview

HTTP_Session lets you store the session data in a database making use of the DB, MDB and MDB2 packages.

Example

Using MDB2 to store session data in a database


<?php
/* create the following table in your database
CREATE TABLE sessiondata (
  id     varchar(32)    NOT NULL,
  expiry int(10),
  data   text,
  PRIMARY KEY (id)
);
*/

require_once 'HTTP/Session.php';

HTTP_Session::useTransSID(false);
HTTP_Session::useCookies(false);

// enter your DSN
HTTP_Session::setContainer('MDB2', array('dsn'   => 'mysql://root:password@localhost/database',
                                         'table' => 'sessiondata'));

/*
// using an existing MDB2 connection
HTTP_Session::setContainer('MDB2', array('dsn'   => &$db,
                                         'table' => 'sessiondata'));
*/

HTTP_Session::start('s');
HTTP_Session::setExpire(time() + 60);   // set expire to 60 seconds
HTTP_Session::setIdle(time() + 5);      // set idle to 5 seconds

if (HTTP_Session::isExpired()) {
    //HTTP_Session::replicate('sessiondata_backup');    // Replicate data of current session to specified table
    HTTP_Session::destroy();
}

if (HTTP_Session::isIdle()) {
    //HTTP_Session::replicate('sessiondata_backup');    // Replicate data of current session to specified table
    HTTP_Session::destroy();
}

HTTP_Session::updateIdle();
