Connect Session Store using Sequelize

connect-session-sequelize is a SQL session store using Sequelize.js.

Installation

Please note that the most recent version requires express 4. If you use express 3 you should install version 0.0.5 and follow the instructions in the previous README.

$ npm install connect-session-sequelize

Options

• db a successfully connected Sequelize instance

Usage

With connect

var connect = require('connect')
	// for express, just call it with 'require('express-session').Store'
	, SequelizeStore = require('connect-session-sequelize')(connect.session.Store);

connect().use(connect.session({
	store: new SequelizeStore(options)
	, secret: 'CHANGEME'
}));

With express 4:

// load dependencies
var express = require('express')
var Sequelize = require('sequelize')
var cookieParser = require('cookie-parser')
var session = require('express-session');

// initalize sequelize with session store
var SequelizeStore = require('connect-session-sequelize')(session.Store);

// create database, ensure 'sqlite3' in your package.json
var sequelize = new Sequelize(
"database",
"username",
"password", {
    "dialect": "sqlite",
    "storage": "./session.sqlite"
});

// configure express
var app = express()
app.use(cookieParser())
app.use(session({
  secret: 'keyboard cat',
  store: new SequelizeStore({
    db: sequelize
  }),
  proxy: true // if you do SSL outside of node.
}))
// continue as normal

SequelizeStore.sync() - will run a sequelize sync() operation on the model for an initialized SequelizeStore object. Use this if you would like the the db table to be created for you.
