connect-akiban

connect-akiban is a Akiban session store.

This is a beta project designed to implement the connect middleware for session. It's based upon the code and pattern used in the connect-mongodb and connect-couchdb projects. Once it reaches a stable, working point, I will push to npm and the npm install will work.

Installation

This project is not available in the NPM registry yet. No not use.

via npm:

$ npm install connect-akiban

Options

To start connect-akiban, you have to pass instances of select akiban classes, thus permitting the usage of existing connections or server configurations. The assumption is that the node application will use the same connection for both the datastore and the session management.

Using an existing connection:

• db Existing connection/database reference

Or with a server configuration:

• server_config Existing server configuration

Other options:

• entity MongoDB collection to host sessions. 'sessions' by default
• reapInterval ms to check expired sessions to remove on db
• username To authenticate your db connection
• password To authenticate your db connection

Example

You have a complete example on example/index.js.

var connect = require('connect')
  , Db = require('akiban').Db
  , Server = require('akiban').Server
  , server_config = new Server('localhost', 1000, { auto_reconnect: true, protocal: rest })
  , db = new Db('test', server_config, {})
  , akibanStore = require('connect-akiban');

connect.createServer(
  connect.bodyParser(),
  connect.cookieParser(),
  connect.session({
    cookie: {maxAge: 60000 * 20} // 20 minutes
  , secret: 'foo'
  , store: new akibanStore({db: db})
  })
);

Attribution

This project is directly based upon the work of masylum and the connect-mongodb project. This is not a direct fork because none of the code will be compatible with the base project. New datastore etc.
