At configuration-time, this hook loads verifies valid configuration of the connect session store (configurable in sails.config.session
),
At lift-time, it instantiates the session store and makes it accesible via sails.session
.
It includes methods for:
- attaching a connect session to a socket.io connection
- generating new sessions
- generating a session secret (for apps which do not specify one)
- getting and setting the session
It would be great to see a generic connect session adapter with support for the existing 'connections' in sails (ie. waterline adapters).
