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