netom/php-riak-session

PHP session handler with Riak backend

php-riak-sessionhandler

Riak-session is a very simple session handler plugin for PHP., _(*1)

It uses the HTTP interface and the CURL extension to communicate with a Riak cluster., _(*2)

The session handler only works with one node, no failover capability is provided here. Use HaProxy or an application-local Riak node to increase availability., _(*3)

If you'd like to make use of the gc() method of the save handler, you have to configure Riak with a backend that supports secondary indexes. Alternatively, you can setup BitCask (for example) with expiry to automatically retire old sessions., _(*4)

Usage

Use composer to include 'netom/php-riak-session'., _(*5)

Use the code below to register a riak session handler instance, and get the actual handler instance in a signle line:, _(*6)

    $h = \Netom\Session\Riak::register();

See the code for parameters., _(*7)

The default is to connect to the localhost, and to the 'default' bucket type, and 'session' bucket., _(*8)

The time() is stored to a t_int indexed field for every session., _(*9)
