What is clj-redis-session

clj-redis-session uses redis as a Clojure/Ring's HTTP session storage engine. What makes it different is its support for hierarchical data, actually any print-strable clojure data.

Why clj-redis-session

The reason I wrote clj-redis-session is that the only redis-backed sesssion store I could find, https://github.com/paraseba/rrss, doesn't support hierarchical data structures, e.g. lists, maps.

Installation

Add

[clj-redis-session "0.0.2"]

to :dependencies in your project.clj.

Usage

clj-redis-session is a drop-in replacement for Ring native stores:

(ns hello
  (:use [clj-redis-session.core :only [redis-store]]
        [clj-redis.client :only [redis])

(def store (redis/init {:url "redis://127.0.0.1:6379"}))
(def app
  (-> ....
      ... other middlewares ...
      (wrap-session {:store (redis-store store)})
      ....))
