# cgi/session.rb - session support for cgi scripts

require 'cgi'
require 'tmpdir'
class CGI
# == Overview
#
# This file provides the CGI::Session class, which provides session
# support for CGI scripts. A session is a sequence of HTTP requests
# and responses linked together and associated with a single client.
# Information associated with the session is stored
# on the server between requests. A session id is passed between client
# and server with every request and response, transparently
# to the user. This adds state information to the otherwise stateless
# HTTP request/response protocol.
#
# == Lifecycle
#
# A CGI::Session instance is created from a CGI object. By default,
# this CGI::Session instance will start a new session if none currently
# exists, or continue the current session for this client if one does
# exist. The +new_session+ option can be used to either always or
# never create a new session. See #new() for more details.
#
# #delete() deletes a session from session storage. It
# does not however remove the session id from the client. If the client
# makes another request with the same id, the effect will be to start
# a new session with the old session's id.
#
# == Setting and retrieving session data.
#
# The Session class associates data with a session as key-value pairs.
# This data can be set and retrieved by indexing the Session instance
# using '[]', much the same as hashes (although other hash methods
# are not supported).
#
# When session processing has been completed for a request, the
# session should be closed using the close() method. This will
# store the session's state to persistent storage. If you want
# to store the session's state to persistent storage without
# finishing session processing for this request, call the update()
# method.
#
# == Storing session state
#
# The caller can specify what form of storage to use for the session's
# data with the +database_manager+ option to CGI::Session::new. The
# following storage classes are provided as part of the standard library:
#
# CGI::Session::FileStore:: stores data as plain text in a flat file. Only
# works with String data. This is the default
# storage type.
# CGI::Session::MemoryStore:: stores data in an in-memory hash. The data
# only persists for as long as the current Ruby
# interpreter instance does.
# CGI::Session::PStore:: stores data in Marshalled format. Provided by
# cgi/session/pstore.rb. Supports data of any type,
# and provides file-locking and transaction support.
#
# Custom storage types can also be created by defining a class with
# the following methods:
#
# new(session, options)
# restore # returns hash of session data.
# update
# close
# delete
#
# Changing storage type mid-session does not work. Note in particular
# that by default the FileStore and PStore session data files have the
# same name. If your application switches from one to the other without
# making sure that filenames will be different
# and clients still have old sessions lying around in cookies, then
# things will break nastily!
#
# == Maintaining the session id.
#
# Most session state is maintained on the server. However, a session
# id must be passed backwards and forwards between client and server
# to maintain a reference to this session state.
#
# The simplest way to do this is via cookies. The CGI::Session class
# provides transparent support for session id communication via cookies
# if the client has cookies enabled.
#
# If the client has cookies disabled, the session id must be included
# as a parameter of all requests sent by the client to the server. The
# CGI::Session class in conjunction with the CGI class will transparently
# add the session id as a hidden input field to all forms generated
# using the CGI#form() HTML generation method. No built-in support is
# provided for other mechanisms, such as URL re-writing. The caller is
# responsible for extracting the session id from the session_id
# attribute and manually encoding it in URLs and adding it as a hidden
# input to HTML forms created by other mechanisms. Also, session expiry
# is not automatically handled.
#
# == Examples of use
#
# === Setting the user's name
#
# require 'cgi'
# require 'cgi/session'
# require 'cgi/session/pstore' # provides CGI::Session::PStore
#
# cgi = CGI.new("html4")
#
# session = CGI::Session.new(cgi,
# 'database_manager' => CGI::Session::PStore, # use PStore
# 'session_key' => '_rb_sess_id', # custom session key
# 'session_expires' => Time.now + 30 * 60, # 30 minute timeout
# 'prefix' => 'pstore_sid_') # PStore option
# if cgi.has_key?('user_name') and cgi['user_name'] != ''
# # coerce to String: cgi[] returns the
# # string-like CGI::QueryExtension::Value
# session['user_name'] = cgi['user_name'].to_s
# elsif !session['user_name']
# session['user_name'] = "guest"
# end
# session.close
#
# === Creating a new session safely
#
# require 'cgi'
# require 'cgi/session'
#
# cgi = CGI.new("html4")
#
# # We make sure to delete an old session if one exists,
# # not just to free resources, but to prevent the session
# # from being maliciously hijacked later on.
# begin
# session = CGI::Session.new(cgi, 'new_session' => false)
# session.delete
# rescue ArgumentError # if no old session
# end
# session = CGI::Session.new(cgi, 'new_session' => true)
# session.close
#

private :create_new_id
# Create a new CGI::Session object for +request+.
#
# +request+ is an instance of the +CGI+ class (see cgi.rb).
# +option+ is a hash of options for initialising this
# CGI::Session instance. The following options are
# recognised:
#
# session_key:: the parameter name used for the session id.
# Defaults to '_session_id'.
# session_id:: the session id to use. If not provided, then
# it is retrieved from the +session_key+ parameter
# of the request, or automatically generated for
# a new session.
# new_session:: if true, force creation of a new session. If not set,
# a new session is only created if none currently
# exists. If false, a new session is never created,
# and if none currently exists and the +session_id+
# option is not set, an ArgumentError is raised.
# database_manager:: the name of the class providing storage facilities
# for session state persistence. Built-in support
# is provided for +FileStore+ (the default),
# +MemoryStore+, and +PStore+ (from
# cgi/session/pstore.rb). See the documentation for
# these classes for more details.
#
# The following options are also recognised, but only apply if the
# session id is stored in a cookie.
#
# session_expires:: the time the current session expires, as a
# +Time+ object. If not set, the session will terminate
# when the user's browser is closed.
# session_domain:: the hostname domain for which this session is valid.
# If not set, defaults to the hostname of the server.
# session_secure:: if +true+, this session will only work over HTTPS.
# session_path:: the path for which this session applies. Defaults
# to the directory of the CGI script.
#
# +option+ is also passed on to the session storage class initializer; see
# the documentation for each session storage class for the options
# they support.
#
# The retrieved or created session is automatically added to +request+
# as a cookie, and also to its +output_hidden+ table, which is used
# to add hidden input elements to forms.
#
# *WARNING* the +output_hidden+
# fields are surrounded by a <fieldset> tag in HTML 4 generation, which
# is _not_ invisible on many browsers; you may wish to disable the
# use of fieldsets with code similar to the following
# (see http://blade.nagaokaut.ac.jp/cgi-bin/scat.rb/ruby/ruby-list/37805)
#
# cgi = CGI.new("html4")
# class << cgi
