README

A simple key-value storage class. used for configurations and extended in vakata/session.

Install

Via Composer

$ composer require vakata/session

Usage

Using the $_SESSION superglobal is perfectly fine and works well with this class.

$session = new \vakata\session\Session(); // autostarts session and applies useful defaults
$session->get('value'); // same as $_SESSION['value'];
$session->set('val.ue', 2); // same as $_SESSION['val'] = [ 'ue' => 1 ];
$session->del('value'); // same as unset($_SESSION['value']);
// optionally sessions can be stored in a database
$sessionDB = new \vakata\session\Session(
    true, // autostart
    new \vakata\sessions\handler\SessionDatabase(
        new \vakata\database\DB('mysqli://user:pass@host/database'),
        'table'
    )
);
// optionally sessions can be stored in memcached / filecache / database
$sessionDB = new \vakata\session\Session(
    true, // autostart
    new \vakata\sessions\handler\SessionCache(
        new \vakata\cache\Memcache(),
        'namespace' // this allows easy clearing
    )
);
