Usage

Example application using the defaults

Example application with PostgreSQL

Options

• cleanupInterval milliseconds between clearing expired sessions. Defaults to 60000. 0 disables the automatic clearing of expired sessions.
• createTable if the table for sessions should be created automatically or not.
• knex knex instance to use. Defaults to a new knex instance, using sqlite3 with a file named 'connect-session-knex.sqlite'
• tableName='sessions' Tablename to use. Defaults to 'sessions'.
• sidFieldName='sid' Field name in table to use for storing session ids. Defaults to 'sid'.

If the table does not exist in the schema, this module will attempt to create it unless the createTable option is false.

If a knex instance is not provided, this module will attempt to create a sqlite3 database, with a file named connect-session-knex.sqlite, in the working directory of the process.
