Laravel Elastic Session Driver
==============================

[](#laravel-elastic-session-driver)

An elastic-search based session driver for Laravel 5.1

How to use
----------

[](#how-to-use)

1. Require it via composer

    ```
    composer require itvisionsy/laravel-elastic-sessions

    ```
2. Add it to the providers list in `config/app.php`:

    ```
    'providers' => [
    //...
    ItvisionSy\LaravelElasticSessionDriver\ElasticSessionServiceProvider::class,
    //...
    ]
    ```
3. Set the correct settings in `config/session.php`

    ```
    "driver" => "elastic",
    "elastic" => [
        "url" => "http://localhost:9200/",
        "index" => "laravel-es-sessions",
        "type" => "session"
    ],
    "lifetime" => 30
    ```

    Values shown above for elastic parameter are the default values in case you did not configure.

Index/Type mapping
------------------

[](#indextype-mapping)

Elastic will detect the mapping by default, however, it is recommended to set the mapping explicitly.

You can do so manually by applying this mapping to the index and type:

```
{
    "index":"set_the_index",
    "type":"set_the_type",
    "body":{
        "properties":{
            "created":{"type":"date"},
            "updated":{"type":"date"},
            "data":{"type":"string","index":"no"}
        },
        "_ttl":{
            "enabled":true,
            "default":"30m"
        }
    }
}
```

Or simpler, the package can do it for you. You will need to tinker `./artisan tinker` and then set the mapping:

```
\ItvisionSy\LaravelElasticSessionDriver\ElasticSessionStore::putMapping();
```

Please note that the `putMapping()` method will automatically read the values from your sessions config file including the `session.lifetime` value (in minutes) which will be used as the default TTL value.
