-= Session Persistence
-
-Rails 3 plugin that lets you set how long you want your session to be persisted/remembered.
-
- session_expires_after 2.weeks
- session_expires_automatically # also aliased to expire_session
-
-The timespan will reset on every request. If you set it to 2 weeks, and the user returns after 1 week, the session will be refreshed and last 2 weeks again. If the user returns after 3 weeks, the session will be reset.
-
-A call to session_expires_automatically will return to a normal automatical expiry cookie, that will expire when the browser is closed.
-
-Note: I haven't tested the plugin with memcache session storage, but it should work there as well.
-
-= Usage
-
-Here's an example sessions controller in a Rails 3 application.
-
- class SessionsController < ApplicationController
- def create
- session_expires_after 2.weeks if params[:remember_me]
-
- # ..normal auth goes here..
- # for example
- user = User.authenticate(params[:username], params[:password])
- if user
- session[:user] = user.id
- else
- # ..
- end
- end
-
- def destroy
- session_expires_automatically
-
- # ..unauthorize here..
- # for example
- session[:user] = nil
- redirect_to root_path
- end
- end
