Header Based Flask-Session

A variant of Flask-Session, Flask-Session. Move cookie based approach into HTTP Header based apporach.

This apporach exists because some client environment doesn't allow cookies, e.g. Weixi mini program.

Installation

Python2: pip install Flask-Header-Session

Python3: pip3 install Flask-Header-Session

Include

# As usual import flask
import flask
# Import our package
from flask_header_session import Session

# Some configs
app.config['SESSION_TYPE'] = ......

# Use
Session(app)

Modifiation

This project rewrited open_session and save_session function to use HTTP Header as the vehicle instead of cookie

Supported Backend

These backends are fully supported and tested:

1. SQLAlchemy
2. Redis

Configuration Variables Honored

The session header name can be set:

SESSION_HEADER_NAME='X-HTTP-HaHaHa'

Default value is X-Header-Session.

Examples

See ./test_session.py to see the sample usage.

Test

1. Create some temp data folders. mkdir -p ./docker/volumes/varlibmysql
2. Go to the test executable folder. cd ./docker/test/
3. Then run ./up.sh to run the tests in local docker containers.

基于HTTP Header的 Flask-Session

Flask-Session的一个变种, Flask-Session源码. 将原来的cookie的session 放入Header里面，有更好的适应性。

这个需求存在于无法使用cookie记录客户的场合，例如微信小程序不允许使用cookie。

安装

Python2: pip install Flask-Header-Session

Python3: pip3 install Flask-Header-Session

引用方法

# 引入flask
import flask
# 引入库package
from flask_header_session import Session

# 设置好环境变量
app.config['SESSION_TYPE'] = ......

# 初始化Session
Session(app)

针对源代码的修改部分

重写了 open_session 和 save_session 方法，使用HTTP Header 而不是 cookie 来装载session内容。

支持的存储后端

以下都是完全测试过 并且支持的:

1. SQLAlchemy
2. Redis

环境变量

HTTP Header名字可以更改:

SESSION_HEADER_NAME='X-HTTP-HaHaHa'

若不更改，则缺省值是 X-Header-Session.

代码举例

翻看 ./test_session.py 有两种支持后端的使用案例.

测试

1. 创建一些临时文件夹. mkdir -p ./docker/volumes/varlibmysql
2. 去往测试执行所在的文件夹. cd ./docker/test/
3. 执行 ./up.sh 在本地的docker环境里执行测试.
