session-variables

app.use(session( { ... proxy: true, resave: true, saveUninitialized: true } )); I found a tutorial on express-session and they have an proxy: true option. Can I leave it on true? What does this do? Is it better to include it? I know what a proxy is however I don't really get why this is an option? The fine manual states: Trust the reverse proxy when setting secure cookies (via the "X-Forwarded-Proto" header). This refers to situations where clients don't connect directly to your Node server, but through a reverse proxy. For instance, clients connect to an NGINX webserver, which forwards the

I have my main blog, which lists all posts. I also have a category page that lists only posts from 1 category. Main Blog Post #1 Post #2 Post #3 Post #4 Post #5 Category A Page Post #1 Post #3 Post #4 Category B Page Post #1 Post #3 Post #5 If a user clicks to look at a post, and then uses the default next/prev link functions, there is no way for WordPress to know which post should be next. For example, if the user is looking at Post #3, should the next post be #4 or #5? It all depends on where the user came from. So I wrote the following code to answer this problem and thought I'd share it.

I am importing a csv file with more then 5,000 records in it. What i am currently doing is, getting all file content as an array and saving them to the database one by one. But in case of script failure, the whole process will run again and if i start checking the them again one by one form database it will use lots of queries, so i thought to keep the imported values in session temporarily. Is it good practice to keep that much of records in the session. Or is there any other way to do this ? Thank you. If you have to do this task in stages (and there's a couple of suggestions here to improve

I am a newbie in codeigniter. I am using an an login form to login as an admin. When the admin logs in with the correct user name and password s/he is directed to the home page with a session variable.and then if he clicks the log out button the session is supposed to be destroyed and redirect the user to log in page i.e log in form page. The 1st controller is admin: <?php class Admin extends CI_Controller { function index() { $data['main_content'] = 'admin/log_in'; $this -> load -> view('includes/admin/admin_template', $data); } function log_in() { $this->load->model('admin_model'); $query =

I have a class that sets various session variables. After I set the session variable I do a var dump of SESSION and get an output of them all. all good so far. Then I navigate to another page. session_start(); // i call this right after opening the php tag var_dump($_SESSION); // i call this after setting the variables and it's empty this time? Setting my sessions while( $row = sqlsrv_fetch_array( $stmt, SQLSRV_FETCH_ASSOC)) { $_SESSION['atid'] = $row['autotaskid']; $_SESSION['bmsid'] = $row['bmsid']; $_SESSION['shavlikid'] = $row['shavlikid']; $_SESSION['cpid'] = $row['cpid']; } Trying to use

I'm trying to make the $_SESSION global available within the controllers of my framework written from scratch. It's not quite MVC, the presentation layer consists of two parent classes with multiple child classes. Without going into great detail, my views are rendered in class Template class Template{ protected $_controller; protected $_action; function __construct($controller,$action) { $this->_controller = $controller; $this->_action = $action; } function render(){ if (file_exists(APP_ROOT . DS . 'app' . DS . 'view' . DS . $this->_controller . DS . $this->_action . '.php')) { include (APP

Method I am unit testing checks for a session variable like if(Session["somevar"] != null) { // rest of the code } In my test, not able to get rid of this since Session is null, it's throwing null referrence exception. To bypass this, I have tried mocking it like below but no luck System.Web.Moles.MHttpContext.AllInstances.SessionGet = (HttpContext cntx) => { return (HttpSessionState)cntx.Session["somevar"]; } I even tried method mention here to simulate HttpContext and then doing below HttpContext.Current = new HttpContext(workerRequest); HttpContext.Current.Session["somevar"] = value; But

What is the maximum limit (i.e. size) of data that a HTTPSession variable can hold? What will happen if this exceeds? And most importantly, what is the alternative approach to have the data throughout the session if the size exceeds the maximum size that a HTTPSession variable can hold? There is no limit, other than the memory of your server. The alternatives are to run your server with more memory to configure the server to swap sessions to disk (see http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-7.0-doc/config/manager.html for Tomcat) to avoid putting large data in the session, and to use a cache or a
