@trkm/http-session-deepmerge-ts v0.1.0

@trkm/http-session-deepmerge-ts

Stores a page's context in a session: deep merging existing session context as needed.

Features

• Very compact way to easily maintain state between webpages on a site.
• 100% typescript.

Usage

As a user navigates between pages, some context may be lost. Specifically the initial http parameters passed on a given landing page. The intent of the http-session-deepmerge-ts is to maintain the initial landing page context as a user navigates throughout a website. This also means that any existing context may be overwritten when navigation to a new page. Keep this in mind when using http-session-deepmerge-ts.

SessionInit

Initializes or resets the current website session: clearing out any existing session information.

• @param sessionKey (optional) - When provided, a custom session storage key is used. By default WP_CONTEXT_SESSION_KEY defined in @trkm/types is used.

import { sessionInit } from '@trkm/http-session-deepmerge-ts';

// uses the default session key defined in WP_CONTEXT_SESSION_KEY
sessionInit();

// use a key
sessionInit('special_session_data_key');

SessionGet

Returns the current webpage session.

• @param sessionKey (optional) - When provided, a custom session storage key is used. By default WP_CONTEXT_SESSION_KEY defined in @trkm/types is used.

import { sessionGet } from '@trkm/http-session-deepmerge-ts';

// uses the default session key defined in WP_CONTEXT_SESSION_KEY
sessionGet();

// use a key
sessionGet('special_session_data_key');

SessionMerge

DeepMerges new session data with existing session data.

• @param context The configuration we are storing in the session.
• @param sessionKey (optional) - When provided, a custom session storage key is used. By default WP_CONTEXT_SESSION_KEY defined in @trkm/types is used.

import { sessionGet, sessionMerge } from '@trkm/http-session-deepmerge-ts';

// uses the default session key defined in WP_CONTEXT_SESSION_KEY
sessionMerge({selectedItem: 'RJ4454', readyToPay: false });
sessionMerge({readyToPay: true });

const info = sessionGet();
console.log(info);

// output
{
  selectedItem: 'RJ4454',
  readyToPay: true
}

Intent

• No Emitted Javascript - The intent is to import this typescript library into a typescript project: compiling to Javascript occurring within the project.
