Signed Cookie-Based HTTP sessions for ASGI applications
Project description
asgi-sessions – Signed Cookie-Based HTTP sessions for ASGI applications
Requirements
python >= 3.7
Installation
asgi-sessions should be installed using pip:
pip install asgi-sessions
Usage
Common ASGI applications:
from asgi_sessions import SessionMiddleware
async def my_app(scope, receive, send):
"""Read session and get the current user data from it or from request query."""
# The middleware puts a session into scope['session]
session = scope['session']
status, headers = 200, []
if scope['query_string']:
# Store any information inside the session
session['user'] = scope['query_string'].decode()
status, headers = 307, [(b"location", b"/")]
# Read a stored info from the session
user = (session.get('user') or 'anonymous').title().encode()
await send({"type": "http.response.start", "status": status, "headers": headers})
await send({"type": "http.response.body", "body": b"Hello %s" % user})
app = SessionMiddleware(my_app, secret_key="sessions-secret")
# http GET / -> Hello Anonymous
# http GET /?tom -> Hello Tom
# http GET / -> Hello Tom
As ASGI-Tools Internal middleware
from asgi_tools import AppMiddleware
from asgi_sessions import SessionMiddleware
app = AppMiddleware(None, SessionMiddleware, secret_key='SESSION-SECRET')
@app.route('/')
async def index(request):
session = request['session']
user = session.get('user', 'anonymous')
return 'Hello %s' % user.title()
@app.route('/login/{user}')
async def login(request, user='anonymous'):
session = request['session']
session['user'] = user
return "Done"
@app.route('/logout')
async def logout(request, *args):
session = request['session']
del session['user']
return "Done"
# http GET / -> Hello Anonymous
# http GET /login/tom -> Done
# http GET / -> Hello Tom
# http GET /logout -> Done
# http GET / -> Hello Anonymous
Options
from asgi_sessions import SessionMiddleware
app = SessionMiddleware(
# Your ASGI application
app,
# Secret Key for the session (required)
secret_key,
# Cookie name to keep the session (optional)
cookie_name='session',
# Cookie max age (in seconds) (optional)
max_age=14 * 24 * 3600,
# Cookie samesite (optional)
samesite='lax',
# Cookie secure (https only) (optional)
