📖 DESCRIPTION

Apache::Session::Store::MySQL fulfills the storage interface of Apache::Session. Session data is stored in a MySQL database.

🗄️ SCHEMA

To use this module, you will need at least these columns in a table called 'sessions', or another table name if you provide the TableName argument:

id char(32)     # or however long your session IDs are.
a_session blob  # or varbinary if you plan to use a big session (>64k after serialization)

To create this schema, you can execute this command using the mysql program:

CREATE TABLE sessions (
   id char(32) not null primary key,
   a_session blob
);

If you use some other command, ensure that there is a unique index on the table's id column.

⚙️ CONFIGURATION

The module must know what datasource, username, and password to use when connecting to the database. These values can be set using the options hash (see Apache::Session documentation). The options are:

• DataSource
• UserName
• Password
• TableName
• Handle

Example:

tie %hash, 'Apache::Session::MySQL', $id, {
    DataSource => 'dbi:mysql:database',
    UserName   => 'database_user',
    Password   => 'K00l',
    TableName  => 'sessions'
};

Instead, you may pass in an already-opened DBI handle to your database.

tie %hash, 'Apache::Session::MySQL', $id, {
    Handle => $dbh
};
