NAME
Catalyst::Plugin::Session::DynamicExpiry - per-session custom expiry
times
SYNOPSIS
# put Session::DynamicExpiry in your use Catalyst line
if ($c->req->param('remember') {
$c->session_time_to_live( 604800 ) # expire in one week.
}
DESCRIPTION
This module allows you to expire session cookies indvidually per
session.
If the "session_time_to_live" field is defined it will set expiry to
that many seconds into the future. Note that the session cookie is set
on every request, so a expiry of one week will stay as long as the user
visits the site at least once a week.
Once ttl has been set for a session the ttl will be stored in the
"__time_to_live" key within the session data itself, and reused for
subsequent request, so you only need to set this once per session (not
once per request).
This is unlike the ttl option in the config in that it allows different
sessions to have different times, to implement features like "remember
me" checkboxes.
METHODS
session_time_to_live $ttl
To set the TTL for this session use this method.
OVERRIDDEN METHODS
calculate_initial_session_expires
calculate_extended_session_expires
Overridden to implement dynamic expiry functionality.
