A Badger based session store for SCS.
You should follow the instructions to install and open a database, and pass the database to badgerstore.New() to establish the session store.
package main
import (
"io"
"net/http"
"github.com/alexedwards/scs/v2"
"github.com/alexedwards/scs/badgerstore"
"github.com/dgraph-io/badger"
)
var sessionManager *scs.SessionManager
func main() {
// Open a Badger database.
db, err := badger.Open(badger.DefaultOptions("tmp/badger"))
if err != nil {
log.Fatal(err)
}
defer db.Close()
// Initialize a new session manager and configure it to use badgerstore as the session store.
sessionManager = scs.New()
sessionManager.Store = badgerstore.New(db)
mux := http.NewServeMux()
mux.HandleFunc("/put", putHandler)
mux.HandleFunc("/get", getHandler)
http.ListenAndServe(":4000", sessionManager.LoadAndSave(mux))
}
func putHandler(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) {
sessionManager.Put(r.Context(), "message", "Hello from a session!")
}
func getHandler(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) {
msg := sessionManager.GetString(r.Context(), "message")
io.WriteString(w, msg)
}Badger will automatically remove expired session keys.
By default keys are in the form scs:session:<token>. For example:
"scs:session:ZnirGwi2FiLwXeVlP5nD77IpfJZMVr6un9oZu2qtJrg"
Because the token is highly unique, key collisions are not a concern. But if you're configuring multiple session managers, both of which use badgerstore, then you may want the keys to have a different prefix depending on which session manager wrote them. You can do this by using the NewWithPrefix() method like so:
db, err := badger.Open(badger.DefaultOptions("tmp/badger"))
if err != nil {
log.Fatal(err)
}
defer db.Close()
sessionManagerOne = scs.New()
sessionManagerOne.Store = badgerstore.NewWithPrefix(db, "scs:session:1:")
sessionManagerTwo = scs.New()
sessionManagerTwo.Store = badgerstore.NewWithPrefix(db, "scs:session:2:")
