SessionStore

Overview

SessionStore persists session data.

Part of the http package — Node.js analog: express, cors, helmet, morgan.

SessionStore is a type exported by gox. Methods on this type are documented separately.

Signature

go
type SessionStore interface {
	Get(sessionID string) (map[string]any, bool)
	Set(sessionID string, data map[string]any)
	Delete(sessionID string)
}

Compare: Node.js · Standard Go · gox

js
// Typical express, cors, helmet, morgan pattern in Node.js
go
func handler(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) {
    // chi or net/http
}
go
import "github.com/sahilkhaire/gox/http"

var store http.SessionStore = http.NewMemoryStore()

Example

go
import "github.com/sahilkhaire/gox/http"

var store http.SessionStore = http.NewMemoryStore()

Tips

Stack Logger, Recover, and Security middleware the way you would morgan + helmet in Express.

Standard library alternative

Use the standard library directly:

go
func handler(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) {
    // chi or net/http
}
