Configuration - Sessionstorage

PDNS Manager features a plugin system to support different session storage mechanisms.

The configuration in general looks like the following:

return [
    ...
    'sessionstorage' => [
        'plugin' => 'apcu',
        'timeout' => 3600,
        'config' => null
    ]
    ...
];

plugin chooses the plugin used as session storage backend.

timeout configures how long a session without any further action will stay active. The value is an integer in seconds.

config may store additional information used by the session storage plugin.

APCu

The PHP APCu cache can be used as back-end with the following config:

return [
    ...
    'sessionstorage' => [
        'plugin' => 'apcu',
        'timeout' => 3600,
        'config' => null
    ]
    ...
];

For that the PHP APCu extension must be installed.

Memcached

Memcached can also be used as session back-end with the following config:

return [
    ...
    'sessionstorage' => [
        'plugin' => 'memcached',
        'timeout' => 3600,
        'config' => [
            'host' => '127.0.0.1',
            'port' => '11211'
        ]
    ],
    ...
];

Where host and port is the location of the Memcached server.
