**Package providing various `SessionHandlerInterface` implementations.**

Install
-------

[](#install)

Via Composer

```
$ composer require nofw/session-handlers
```

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

This package provides three Session Handler implementations:

- PSR-6
- PSR-16
- Doctrine Cache

Choose your backend and instantiate and register handler.

```
$cache = new ImaginaryCacheItemPool();
$handler = new \Nofw\Session\CacheSessionHandler($cache);

session_set_save_handler($handler);
```

Use your session as usual.

### Logging

[](#logging)

The [SessionHandlerInterface](http://php.net/manual/en/class.sessionhandlerinterface.php) does not allow throwing exceptions to indicate failure. Instead it expects the handler to return empty values (empty string or false). However, the PSR-X implementations do throw exceptions. To adhere the interface and to not lose the ability to detect failures, these implementations accept a PSR-3 logger as their second constructor argument and also implement the `LoggerAwareInterface`.

```
$cache = new ImaginaryCacheItemPool();
$logger = new Monolog\Logger('nofw')
$handler = new \Nofw\Session\CacheSessionHandler($cache, $logger);
```

The caught exceptions are logged as errors.

Testing
-------

[](#testing)

```
$ make test
```
