# HTTP Proxy Session Store

Proxy session store for `express-session` allows to use any session store through http API.

It can be used to:

* share any session store between multiple applications,

* reach session store through HTTP Api

![Proxy Session Store](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/kmoskwiak/files/master/proxy-session-store/proxy-session-store.png)

## Setup

```

npm install proxy-session-store

```

In express app:

```js

var session = require('express-session');

var ProxySessionStore = require('proxy-session-store')(session);

app.use(session({

           store: new ProxySessionStore({

               port: 9999,

               hostname: 'localhost',

               body: {

                   apiKey: '',

                   someOtherOptionalKey: 'which you want to pass to session store'

               }

           }),

           secret: 'keyboard cat'

       }

   ));

```

In above example Proxy Session Store will send `POST` request to server listening on `http://localhost:9999`. Body of `POST` request in this example looks like this:

```js

{

   apiKey: '',

   someOtherOptionalKey: 'which you want to pass to session store',

   body: 'SESSION DATA'

}

```

## Avaliable options

* `port` - port of service with exposed HTTP API

* `hostname` - hostname of service with exposed HTTP API

* `body` - OPTIONAL - any additional data which should be send in HTTP request
