This gives you the same session management capabilities as Laravel's database driver, but backed by Redis. **Use this if you want to:** - Track active sessions per user - Implement "logout from other devices" - Force-logout users (individually or all at once) - Prevent concurrent sessions Requirements ------------ [](#requirements) - PHP `^8.2` - Laravel `^11.0 | ^12.0` - Redis configured in your Laravel application Installation ------------ [](#installation) ``` composer require playbase-oss/laravel-redis-session-enhanced ``` The service provider is auto-discovered via Laravel's package discovery. Configuration ------------- [](#configuration) **1. Add a dedicated Redis connection for sessions in `config/database.php`:** ``` 'redis' => [ // ... existing connections 'session' => [ 'host' => env('REDIS_HOST', '127.0.0.1'), 'password' => env('REDIS_PASSWORD', null), 'port' => env('REDIS_PORT', 6379), 'database' => env('REDIS_SESSION_DB', 2), ], ], ``` Using a separate database index keeps session keys isolated from cache and queue data, making it trivial to flush all sessions without affecting other Redis data. **2. Update your `.env`:** ``` SESSION_DRIVER=redis-session SESSION_CONNECTION=session ``` If you have a cached config, clear it: ``` php artisan config:clear ``` Session Data Structure ---------------------- [](#session-data-structure) Each session is stored as a JSON object with the following shape: ``` { "user_id": 1, "ip_address": "127.0.0.1", "user_agent": "Mozilla/5.0 ...", "last_activity": 1711234567, "payload": "" } ``` Usage ----- [](#usage) ### SessionHelper [](#sessionhelper) `SessionHelper` abstracts over both the `redis-session` and `database` drivers, so you can switch between them without changing application code. ``` use PlayBaseOss\LaravelRedisSessionEnhanced\Support\SessionHelper; // Get all sessions for a user SessionHelper::getForUser($userId); // Get only active sessions (within SESSION_LIFETIME) SessionHelper::getForUser($userId, only_active: true); // Delete all sessions of a user except the current one SessionHelper::deleteForUserExceptSession($userId, request()->session()->id()); // Delete all sessions of a user SessionHelper::deleteForUserExceptSession($userId); // Delete all sessions (every user) SessionHelper::deleteAll(); // Check if the application is using a supported driver SessionHelper::isUsingValidDriver(); // true for database or redis-session ``` ### Direct Handler Access [](#direct-handler-access) You can resolve the underlying `RedisSessionEnhancerHandler` directly from the session facade: ``` use PlayBaseOss\LaravelRedisSessionEnhanced\Session\RedisSessionEnhancerHandler; /** @var RedisSessionEnhancerHandler $handler */ $handler = Session::getHandler(); // Get all sessions as a Collection of SessionData objects $sessions = $handler->readAll(); // Flush all session data from Redis $handler->destroyAll(); ``` ### SessionData [](#sessiondata) `readAll()` returns a `Collection` of `SessionData` objects: ``` use PlayBaseOss\LaravelRedisSessionEnhanced\Session\SessionData; $session->id; // string — session ID $session->user_id; // mixed — authenticated user ID, or null $session->ip_address; // string — client IP address $session->user_agent; // string — client User-Agent (truncated to 500 chars) $session->last_activity; // int — Unix timestamp of last activity $session->payload; // string — base64-encoded session payload ``` Migrating from v1 ----------------- [](#migrating-from-v1) The package has been transferred to PlayBase-OSS.
