=head1 NAME

Prancer::Session

=head1 SYNOPSIS

Sessions are just as important in a web application as GET and POST parameters.
So if you have configured your application for sessions then every request will
include a session object specific to that request.

    sub handler {
        my ($self, $env, $request, $response, $session) = @_;

        # increment this counter every time the user requests a page
        my $counter = $session->get('counter');
        $counter ||= 0;
        ++$counter;
        $session->set('counter', $counter);

        sub (GET + /logout) {
            # blow the user's session away
            $session->expire();

            # then redirect the user
            $response->header('Location' => '/login');
            return $response->finalize(301);
        }
    }

=head1 CONFIGURATION

The basic configuration for the session engine looks like this:

    session:
        state:
            driver: Prancer::Session::State::Cookie
            options:
                session_key: PSESSION
        store:
            driver: Prancer::Session::Store::Storable
            options:
                dir: /tmp/prancer/sessions

The documentation for the state and store drivers will have more information
about the specific options available to them.

=head1 METHODS

=over

=item id

This will return the session id of the current session. This is set and
maintained by the session state package.

=item has I

This will return true if the named key exists in the session object.

    if ($session->has('foo')) {
        print "I see you've set foo already.\n";
    }

It will return false otherwise.

=item get I [I]

The get method takes two arguments: a key and a default value. If the key does
not exist then the default value will be returned instead. If the value that
has been stored in the user's session is a reference then a clone of the value
will be returned to avoid modifying the session in a strange way. Additionally,
this method is context sensitive.

    my $foo = $session->get('foo');
    my %bar = $session->get('bar');
    my @baz = $session->get('baz');

=item set I I

The set method takes two arguments: a key and a value. If the key already
exists in the session then it will be overwritten and the old value will be
returned in a context sensitive way. If the value is a reference then it will
be cloned before being saved into the user's session to avoid any strangeness.

    my $old_foo = $session->set('foo', 'bar');
    my %old_bar = $session->set('bar', { 'baz' => 'bat' });
    my @old_baz = $session->set('baz', [ 'foo', 'bar', 'baz' ]);
    $session->set('whatever', 'do not care');

=item remove I

The remove method takes one argument: the key to remove. The value that was
removed will be returned in a context sensitive way.

=item expire

This will blow the session away.
