x-express-session v1.20.5

x-express-session

A clear and direct fork of express-session but with the option to set the sessionid as http header.

NOTE!!

This fork is the result of a personal need and hence should not be expected to work miracles besides what it was intended to do (pass sessionid directly in the http header). You should have at least used express-session before coming over to use this.

The included test is the default express-session test. None has been added for the modifications done.

Usage

To install

$ npm install x-express-session

API:

var session = require('x-express-session')

session(options)

options.carrier

Where the session id should be set and retrieved from. Possible values are:

• 'cookie': Set the session id as cookie in the response and read as cookie from the request (default)
• 'header': Set the session id as http header in the response and read as http header from the request. The http header name is the value passed to the name option
• 'both': Performs the above two cases together with the cookie having a higher priority

Please refer to express-session's session(options) for the remaining full description of options.
