"sveltekit-redis-session" makes it easy for developers to use Redis as a session manager in SvelteKit applications. It offers a variety of convenient features that make managing user sessions a breeze. This includes simple functions for storing and retrieving data, encryption of session data for added security, and automatic handling of session expiration. Additionally, the package is highly customizable, which allows developers to adjust it to their specific requirements and optimize performance (COPY MY CODE BUT LEARN). Overall, "sveltekit-redis-session" is choice for managing user sessions in any SvelteKit application thanks to SvelteKit package for robust functionality and flexibility.
This is an example of how you may give instructions on setting up your project locally. To get a local copy up and running follow these simple example steps.
This is an example of how to list things you need to use the software and how to install them.
- Install the sveltekit-redis-session
pnpm i @ethercorps/SvelteKit-redis-session
Guide to how to use @ethercorps/SvelteKit-redis-session
-
First we need to make instance of it to use everywhere in project.
import { RedisSessionStore } from '@ethercorps/SvelteKit-redis-session'; import Redis from 'ioredis'; export const sessionManager = new RedisSessionStore({ redisClient: new Redis(), // Required A pre-initiated redis client secret: 'your-secret-key', // Required A secret key for encryption and other things, cookieName: 'session', // CookieName to be saved in cookies for browser Default session prefix: 'sk-session', // Prefix for Redis Keys Default sk-session signed: true, // Do you want to sign your cookies Default true encrypted: false, // Do you want to encrypt your cookies using 'aes-256-cbc' algorithm Default false useTTL: true, // Do you wanna use redis's Expire key functionality Default false renewSessionBeforeExpire: false, // Do you wanna update session expire time in built function Default false renewBeforeSeconds: 30 * 60, // If renewSessionBeforeExpire is true define your renew before time in seconds Default 30 minutes serializer: JSON, // You can define your own serializer functions to stringify and parse sessionData for redis Default JSON cookiesOptions: { path: '/', httpOnly: true, sameSite: 'strict', secure: !dev, // From SvelteKit "$app/environment" maxAge: 60 * 60 * 24 // You have to define time in seconds and it's also used for redis key expiry time } // You have more options these are default used in package for more check sveltekit CookieSerializeOptions type. });
These are the default config example you can use as per your need and make it better for your use. I have written an article to explain more about this package link for article.
-
To create new session and add cookies for user after authentication
// Example it's a +page.server.ts import sessionManager from 'sessionManagerFile'; export const actions: Actions = { login: async ({ req, cookies, locals }) => { const formdata = await request.formData(); // Form validation && user validation const { data, error, message } = sessionManager.createNewSession(cookies, userData); // data is the value we added to cookies, check for error which is a boolean and message. /* add data to locals too for accessing data from client */ throw redirect(307, '/dashboard'); } };
-
To get session data for the cookie
/* hooks.server.ts */ import sessionManager from 'sessionManagerFile'; export const handle: Handle = async ({ event, resolve }) => { /* your validation logic */ const { data, error, message } = sessionManager.getSession(event.cookies); // data is the User session data we saved to redis while login, check for error which is a boolean and message. /* do error check and then set data to locals as per your logic */ };
-
To update session expiry in redis and cookies
// in any server side file or endpoint where you can access browser cookies import sessionManager from 'sessionManagerFile'; const { data, error, message } = await sessionManager.updateSessionExpiry(cookies); // data is going to be null or key which is updated, error is a boolean value and message a string
-
To delete session from redis and cookie from browser
// Example it's a +page.server.ts import sessionManager from 'sessionManagerFile'; export const actions: Actions = { logout: async ({ cookies, locals }) => { const { data, error, message } = await sessionManager.delSession(cookies); // data is the value we deleted key, check for error which is a boolean and message. /* clear your locals too */ throw redirect(307, '/login'); } };
Examples are going to be added soon.
