## django-mongo-sessions

Forked version from [django-mongo-sessions](https://github.com/hellysmile/django-mongo-sessions).

> Explain why this fork was needed.


### Features

 - fast NoSQL Django sessions backend
 - invalidation via [TTL](http://docs.mongodb.org/manual/tutorial/expire-data/)

### Installation

- Install with pip

```bash
pip install django-mongo-sessions
```

- Inside settings.py


```python
SESSION_ENGINE = 'mongo_sessions.session'
```

### Available settings

There is two ways to setup mongodb connection at `settings.py`.
First, if already have mongo connection, like::

```python
import pymongo
from pymongo import MongoClient
connection = MongoClient()
MONGO_CLIENT = connection.your_database
MONGO_SESSIONS_COLLECTION = 'mongo_sessions' # default option
```

Second, if you need to connect to mongodb, like::

```python
MONGO_PORT = 27017
MONGO_HOST = 'localhost'
MONGO_DB_NAME = 'test'
MONGO_DB_USER = False
MONGO_DB_PASSWORD = False
MONGO_SESSIONS_COLLECTION = 'mongo_sessions'

# all this settings are defaults, you can skip any
```

``expireAfterSeconds`` index value by default is ``SESSION_COOKIE_AGE``
you can change::

    MONGO_SESSIONS_TTL = 60 * 60 # one hour

be sure, that you know what are you doing with it, ``SESSION_COOKIE_AGE``
will get different expiration time

every time you change one of this values, ``expireAfterSeconds`` index
will be dropped and then will be indexed with ``ensureIndex`` again,
be careful here

*it is good way to change expireAfterSeconds only by 1 running instance*

## Tests

```bash
pip install tox
tox
```
