Zend_Application_Resource_Session allows you to configure
Zend_Session as well as optionally initialize a session
SaveHandler.
To set a session save handler, simply pass the saveHandler (case insensitive) option key to the resource. The value of this option may be one of the following:
String: A string indicating a class implementing
Zend_Session_SaveHandler_Interfacethat should be instantiated.Array: An array with the keys "class" and, optionally, "options", indicating a class implementing
Zend_Session_SaveHandler_Interfacethat should be instantiated and an array of options to provide to its constructor.Zend_Session_SaveHandler_Interface: an object implementing this interface.
Any other option keys passed will be passed to
Zend_Session::setOptions() to configure
Zend_Session.
Example 49. Sample Session resource configuration
Below is a sample INI snippet showing how to configure the session
resource. It sets several Zend_Session options, as well
as configures a Zend_Session_SaveHandler_DbTable instance.
resources.session.save_path = APPLICATION_PATH "/../data/session" resources.session.use_only_cookies = true resources.session.remember_me_seconds = 864000 resources.session.saveHandler.class = "Zend_Session_SaveHandler_DbTable" resources.session.saveHandler.options.name = "session" resources.session.saveHandler.options.primary[] = "session_id" resources.session.saveHandler.options.primary[] = "save_path" resources.session.saveHandler.options.primary[] = "name" resources.session.saveHandler.options.primaryAssignment[] = "sessionId" resources.session.saveHandler.options.primaryAssignment[] = "sessionSavePath" resources.session.saveHandler.options.primaryAssignment[] = "sessionName" resources.session.saveHandler.options.modifiedColumn = "modified" resources.session.saveHandler.options.dataColumn = "session_data" resources.session.saveHandler.options.lifetimeColumn = "lifetime"
Bootstrap your database first!
If you are configuring the
Zend_Session_SaveHandler_DbTable session save
handler, you must first configure your database connection for it to
work. Do this by either using the Db
resource -- and make sure the "resources.db" key comes prior to
the "resources.session" key -- or by writing your own resource
that initializes the database, and specifically sets the default
Zend_Db_Table adapter.
