cherrypy/lib/sessions.py

"""Session implementation for CherryPy.

You need to edit your config file to use sessions. Here's an example::

    [/]
    tools.sessions.on = True
    tools.sessions.storage_class = cherrypy.lib.sessions.FileSession
    tools.sessions.storage_path = "/home/site/sessions"
    tools.sessions.timeout = 60

This sets the session to be stored in files in the directory
/home/site/sessions, and the session timeout to 60 minutes. If you omit
``storage_class``, the sessions will be saved in RAM.
``tools.sessions.on`` is the only required line for working sessions,
the rest are optional.

By default, the session ID is passed in a cookie, so the client's browser must
have cookies enabled for your site.

To set data for the current session, use
``cherrypy.session['fieldname'] = 'fieldvalue'``;
to get data use ``cherrypy.session.get('fieldname')``.

================
Locking sessions
================

By default, the ``'locking'`` mode of sessions is ``'implicit'``, which means
the session is locked early and unlocked late. Be mindful of this default mode
for any requests that take a long time to process (streaming responses,
expensive calculations, database lookups, API calls, etc), as other concurrent
requests that also utilize sessions will hang until the session is unlocked.

If you want to control when the session data is locked and unlocked,
set ``tools.sessions.locking = 'explicit'``. Then call
``cherrypy.session.acquire_lock()`` and ``cherrypy.session.release_lock()``.
Regardless of which mode you use, the session is guaranteed to be unlocked when
the request is complete.

=================
Expiring Sessions
=================

You can force a session to expire with :func:`cherrypy.lib.sessions.expire`.
Simply call that function at the point you want the session to expire, and it
will cause the session cookie to expire client-side.

===========================
Session Fixation Protection
===========================

If CherryPy receives, via a request cookie, a session id that it does not
recognize, it will reject that id and create a new one to return in the
response cookie. This `helps prevent session fixation attacks
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Session_fixation#Regenerate_SID_on_each_request>`_.
However, CherryPy "recognizes" a session id by looking up the saved session
data for that id. Therefore, if you never save any session data,
**you will get a new session id for every request**.

A side effect of CherryPy overwriting unrecognised session ids is that if you
have multiple, separate CherryPy applications running on a single domain (e.g.
on different ports), each app will overwrite the other's session id because by
default they use the same cookie name (``"session_id"``) but do not recognise
each others sessions. It is therefore a good idea to use a different name for
each, for example::

    [/]
    ...
    tools.sessions.name = "my_app_session_id"

================
Sharing Sessions
================

If you run multiple instances of CherryPy (for example via mod_python behind
Apache prefork), you most likely cannot use the RAM session backend, since each
instance of CherryPy will have its own memory space. Use a different backend
instead, and verify that all instances are pointing at the same file or db
location. Alternately, you might try a load balancer which makes sessions
"sticky". Google is your friend, there.

================
Expiration Dates
================

The response cookie will possess an expiration date to inform the client at
which point to stop sending the cookie back in requests. If the server time
and client time differ, expect sessions to be unreliable. **Make sure the
system time of your server is accurate**.

CherryPy defaults to a 60-minute session timeout, which also applies to the
cookie which is sent to the client. Unfortunately, some versions of Safari
("4 public beta" on Windows XP at least) appear to have a bug in their parsing
of the GMT expiration date--they appear to interpret the date as one hour in
the past. Sixty minutes minus one hour is pretty close to zero, so you may
experience this bug as a new session id for every request, unless the requests
are less than one second apart. To fix, try increasing the session.timeout.

On the other extreme, some users report Firefox sending cookies after their
expiration date, although this was on a system with an inaccurate system time.
Maybe FF doesn't trust system time.
