# Redis stores for ActionPack

__`redis-actionpack`__ provides a session store for __ActionPack__, specifically for __ActionDispatch__. See the main [redis-store readme](https://github.com/redis-store/redis-store) for general guidelines.

For guidelines on using our underlying cache store, see the main [redis-store readme](https://github.com/redis-store/redis-store).

For information on how to use this library in a Rails app, see the [documentation for redis-rails](https://github.com/redis-store/redis-rails).

If, for some reason, you're using `ActionDispatch` and not in a Rails app, read on to learn how to install/use this gem by itself!

## Installation

```ruby
# Gemfile
gem 'redis-actionpack'
```

## Usage

If you are using redis-store with Rails, head on over to the
[redis-rails README](https://github.com/redis-store/redis-rails#session-storage) to
learn how to integrate this gem into your Rails application.

For standalone usage:

```ruby
ActionController::Base.session_store = :redis_store,
servers: %w(redis://localhost:6379/0/session),
expire_after: 90.minutes,
key: '_my_application_session',
threadsafe: false,
secure: true
```

A brief run-down of these options...

- **servers** is an Array of Redis server URLs that we will attempt to find
data from.
- **expire_after** is the default TTL of session keys. This is also set
as the expiry time of any cookies generated by the session store.
- **key** is the name of the cookie on the client side
- **threadsafe** is for applications that run on multiple instances. Set
this to `false` if you want to disable the global mutex lock on
session data. It's `true` by default, meaning the mutex will be
enabled.
- **secure** ensures HTTP cookies are transferred from server to client
on a secure (HTTPS) connection

## Running tests

```shell
gem install bundler
git clone git://github.com/redis-store/redis-actionpack.git
cd redis-actionpack
bundle install
bundle exec rake
```

If you are on **Snow Leopard** you have to run `env ARCHFLAGS="-arch x86_64" bundle exec rake`
