NAME

Apache::Session::Store::File - Store persistent data on the filesystem

SYNOPSIS

  use Apache::Session::Store::File;
 
  my $store = new Apache::Session::Store::File;
 
  $store->insert($ref);
  $store->update($ref);
  $store->materialize($ref);
  $store->remove($ref);
 
 

DESCRIPTION

This module fulfills the storage interface of Apache::Session. The serialized objects are stored in files on your filesystem.

OPTIONS

This module requires one argument in the usual Apache::Session style. The name of the option is Directory, and the value is the full path of the directory where you wish to place the files. Example
  tie %s, 'Apache::Session::File', undef,
     {Directory => '/tmp/sessions'};
 
 

NOTES

All session objects are stored in the same directory. Some filesystems, such as Linux's ext2fs, have O(n) performance where n is the number of files in a directory. Other filesystems, like Sun's UFS, and Linux's reiserfs, do not have this problem. You should consider your filesystem's performance before using this module to store many objects.
