pyramid_redis_sessions gives you Redis-backed sessions for the Pyramid Web Application Development Framework.

The package implements the Pyramid ISession interface (http://docs.pylonsproject.org/projects/pyramid/en/latest/api/interfaces.html#pyramid.interfaces.ISession), and that portion of the API will not change. However, any other implementation-specific methods on the RedisSession object are subject to change.

Patches and feature requests are welcome.

Usage:

• $ easy_install pyramid_redis_sessions

• In your Pyramid config file (typically development.ini or production.ini), configure the settings (see below)

• In your Pyramid application main function, use either:

  • pyramid.include(‘pyramid_redis_sessions’)

• Or:

  • from pyramid_redis_sessions import session_factory_from_settings

  • session_factory = session_factory_from_settings(settings)

  • config.set_session_factory(session_factory)

You can configure the following settings in your ini file:

• redis.sessions.secret = your_secret

• redis.sessions.timeout = 1200

• redis.sessions.period = 300

• redis.sessions.cookie_name = session

• redis.sessions.cookie_max_age =

• redis.sessions.cookie_path = /

• redis.sessions.cookie_domain =

• redis.sessions.cookie_secure = False

• redis.sessions.cookie_httponly = False

• redis.sessions.cookie_on_exception = True

• redis.sessions.host = localhost

• redis.sessions.port = 6379

• redis.sessions.db = 0

• redis.sessions.password = None

• redis.sessions.socket_timeout =

• redis.sessions.connection_pool =

• redis.sessions.charset = utf-8

• redis.sessions.errors = strict

• redis.sessions.unix_socket_path =

Only redis.sessions.secret is required. All other parameters have sensible defaults.

Note: package assumes you have a running Redis instance at the specified host and port.
