Libraries Plain Session

Jakub Jakubiec edited this page Feb 24, 2014 · 1 revision

Info

Library based on CodeIgniter session, maintaining API compatibility and most of original features. Main changes are:

  • not saving session on user side
  • ability to use different storage mechanisms - files and memcached (using PHP libraries and providers) and database (using custom handler based on CodeIgniter activerecord)

Limitations

  • switching session storage for existing install will cause existing sessions not to be accessible
  • database sessions were only tested with mysql
  • all data is stored under single $_SESSION['ci_data'] global variable key
