CookieStore
class CookieStore extends BaseStore (View source)
A session store which stores the session data in an encrypted & signed cookie.
This way the server doesn't need to open a database connection or have a shared filesystem for reading the session from - the client passes through the session with every request.
This approach does have some limitations - cookies can only be quite small (4K total, but we limit to 1K) and can only be set before the server starts sending a response.
So we clear the cookie on Session startup (which should always be before the headers get sent), but just fail on Session write if we can't use cookies, assuming there's something watching for that & providing a fallback
Traits
Provides extensions to this object to integrate it with standard config API methods.
Config options
max_length | int | Maximum length of a cookie value in characters |
Properties
protected | string | $key | Session secret key |
from BaseStore |
protected | HybridSessionStore_Crypto | $crypto | Encryption service |
|
protected | string | $cookie | Name of cookie |
|
protected | string | $currentCookieData | Known unmodified value of this cookie. If the cookie backend has been read into the application, then the backend is unable to verify the modification state of this value internally within the system, so this will be left null unless written back. |
