 (require koyo/session) package: koyo-lib

This module exposes a component for storing and retrieving data from a browser session.

parameter

(current-session-manager)  (or/c #f session-manager?)

(current-session-manager sessions)  void?
  sessions : (or/c #f session-manager?)
This parameter holds a reference to the current session manager.

Functions session-ref, session-set!, session-update! and session-remove! use this parameter under the hood to locate the manager.

The parameter is installed by wrap-session.

parameter

(current-session-id)  (or/c #f non-empty-string?)

(current-session-id session-id)  void?
  session-id : (or/c #f non-empty-string?)
This parameter holds the session id for the current request. If the current request handler is wrapped with wrap-session, then this is guaranteed not to be #f.

procedure

(session-manager? v)  boolean?

  v : any/c
Returns #t when v is a session manager.

procedure

(make-session-manager-factory 
  #:cookie-name cookie-name 
  [#:cookie-path cookie-path 
  #:cookie-secure? cookie-secure? 
  #:cookie-http-only? cookie-http-only? 
  #:cookie-same-site cookie-same-site] 
  #:shelf-life shelf-life 
  #:secret-key secret-key 
  #:store store) 
  (-> session-manager?)
  cookie-name : non-empty-string?
  cookie-path : path-string? = "/"
  cookie-secure? : boolean? = #t
  cookie-http-only? : boolean? = #t
  cookie-same-site : (or/c 'lax 'strict) = 'strict
  shelf-life : exact-positive-integer?
  secret-key : bytes?
  store : session-store?
Returns a function that will create a session manager in accordance with the given options.

procedure

(session-ref k)  any/c

  k : symbol?
(session-ref k d)  any/c
  k : symbol?
  d : any/c

procedure

(session-manager-ref sm k)  any/c

  sm : session-manager?
  k : symbol?
(session-manager-ref sm k d)  any/c
  sm : session-manager?
  k : symbol?
  d : any/c
Looks up k in the current session, returning d if the key is not found. If d is not provided, then a user error is raised.

procedure

(session-set! k v)  void?

  k : symbol?
  v : serializable?

procedure

(session-manager-set! sm k v)  void?

  sm : session-manager?
  k : symbol?
  v : serializable?
Stores v under the k key in the current session.

procedure

(session-update! k p)  serializable?

  k : symbol?
  p : (-> any/c serializable?)
(session-update! k p d)  serializable?
  k : symbol?
  p : (-> any/c serializable?)
  d : any/c

procedure

(session-manager-update! sm k p)  serializable?

  sm : session-manager?
  k : symbol?
  p : (-> any/c serializable?)
(session-manager-update! sm k p d)  serializable?
  sm : session-manager?
  k : symbol?
  p : (-> any/c serializable?)
  d : any/c
Updates k in the current session by applying p to it. If k is not set then d is used as the default value. If d is not provided, then a user error is raised.

procedure

(session-remove! k)  void?

  k : symbol?

procedure

(session-manager-remove! sm k)  void?

  sm : session-manager?
  k : symbol?
Removes k from the current session. Does nothing if k is not set in the current session.

procedure

((wrap-session sm) handler)  (-> request? any/c ... response?)

  sm : session-manager?
  handler : procedure?
Wraps a handler such that the appropriate session information for the current visitor is loaded and, eventually, stored.

If the current visitor doesn’t have a session cookie then a new one is generated and added to the response.

Each session’s lifetime is extended with every page load.

26.1 Session Stores🔗

Session stores decide how session data is stored.

procedure

(session-store? v)  boolean?

  v : any/c
Returns #t when v is a session store.

procedure

(memory-session-store? v)  boolean?

  v : any/c

procedure

(make-memory-session-store [#:ttl ttl    
  #:file-path path])  session-store?
  ttl : exact-positive-integer? = (* 7 86400)
  path : path-string? = (make-temporary-file)
A session store that keeps all session data in memory, persisting and loading it to/from disk on shutdown and startup.

ttl controls how many seconds to wait before removing stale sessions.
