Provide example of using SCS with Echo about scs HOT 9 CLOSED

I think that having an example of how to use SCS with Echo would be valuable.

I'm not keen on adding an examples folder for two reasons: first it clutters the repository with code that isn't core to the project, and secondly if your using a vendoring tool which supports recursive vendoring (like GVT) it could easily lead to dependencies to be installed which aren't actually used in someone's compiled application (see FiloSottile/gvt#84 for an example).

I think a sensible way to address this is for example code to be published as Gists and linked to from the main README. I've just pushed commit 2b6a87b which adds an examples section and a link to an example.

If you want to add a example of using SCS with Echo, that would be great. I'll update the title of this issue accordingly.

Works for me. Thanks!

Oh, but sorry.. my middleware depends on Opts() being exposed. Are you okay with merging pull request #33?

from scs.

It looks like Echo now provides it's own official session middleware which works with the Echo Request and Response objects. I think that this would be a better fit for users of Echo instead of trying to shoehorn SCS into their application.

I've updated the README in 4c09049

@alexedwards Just to push back lightly-- AFAICT, what echo has done is a thin wrapper for gorilla/sessions.

I compared the pgstore backend available for gorilla/sessions to the one you wrote for scs, and by far, I prefer your approach. The table is simpler, it isn't auto-created, it is properly indexed, and the code is easier to audit and reason about.

So now I'm vexed-- I'd rather use scs, but I don't really want to drop echo, either. @jpfluger is your middleware usable with scs as it now stands?

from scs.

@danielbprice Yes, it should be usable. But it's also 6 commits behind with this repo and different than my local version which I use extensively in my projects. I need to clean that up and might re-fork to save time (you've been warned! :). @alexedwards does a great job maintaining scs so I would prefer to re-integrate with his repo. I'll make time on Sunday to work on this.

Sorry to raise a dead issue, but i created Echo SCS Session if anyone is interested in using scs with echo

@spazzymoto Thanks, I've added a link to echo-scs-session in the SCS README 👍

@spazzymoto Very elegant solution using Echo with SCS. Highly recommended for echo users to check-out Echo SCS Session and adapt to suit your own Echo projects. 🥇
