express session

We have hosted the application express session in order to run this application in our online workstations with Wine or directly.

Quick description about express session:

This is a Node.js module available through the npm registry. Installation is done using the npm install command provided in the instructions. Create a session middleware with the given options. Session data is not saved in the cookie itself, just the session ID. Session data is stored server-side. Since version 1.5.0, the cookie-parser middleware no longer needs to be used for this module to work. This module now directly reads and writes cookies on req/res. Using cookie-parser may result in issues if the secret is not the same between this module and cookie-parser. The default server-side session storage, MemoryStore, is purposely not designed for a production environment. It will leak memory under most conditions, does not scale past a single process, and is meant for debugging and developing.

Features:

• Session data is stored server-side
• Express-session accepts properties in the options object
• If both expires and maxAge are set in the options, then the last one defined in the object is what is used
• The expires option should not be set directly; instead only use the maxAge option
• If both expires and maxAge are set in the options, then the last one defined in the object is what is used
• A Node.js module available through the npm registry

Programming Language: JavaScript.
