• v1.10.0 Changes

  June 04, 2018

  🚀 Release 1.10.0 (2018-06-04)

  • ⏱ Redis namespace manager now supports providing a TTL for session entries that had a timeout provided.
    🚚 This will remove the need to manually clear expired sessions from the redis storage.
  • 👍 nsscrypto backend is now properly identified as providing AES support.
  • 👍 When a crypto backend doesn't support AES it will no longer crash if the encrypt_key is None.
  • 👍 Session cookies will now provide support for SameSite through the samesite option.
    0️⃣ By default this will be Lax, but can be set to Strict or None to disable it.

• v1.9.1 Changes

  April 09, 2018

  🚀 Release 1.9.1 ( 2018-04-09 )

  • ⚡️ When decorating a function with @cache_region decorator the function generated to update the cached value
    will be named like the decorated function. So that during debugging it's easy to know which function is involved.
  • ✂ Removed usage of async as a variable in code, this fixes a compatibility problem with Python 3.7 where it's a keyword.
  • 🛠 Fixed a race condition in FileNamespaceManager.
  • ext.database backend will now properly close connections.
  • Do not leave bhind corrupted files if FileNamespaceManager is interrupted while writing a new file.
    Replacing content of a file or writing a new one is now always an atomic operation.
  • DBMNamespaceManager and FileSynchronizer will now deal with directories disappearing while they try to write to them.
  • 📚 The Redis and MongoDB backends are not exposed in documentation.

• v1.9.0 Changes

  June 18, 2017

  🚀 Release 1.9.0 (2017-06-19)

  • Beaker now provides builtin ext:mongodb and ext:redis namespace managers.
    🔀 Both come with a Synchronizer implemented on the storage backend instead of relying on file one.
  • 🛠 Fixed an issue where cookie options like Secure, Domain and so on where lost.
  • 👌 Improved support for cache entries expiration. NamespaceManagers that support it will expire their key automatically.
  • Pycryptodome can be used instead of pycrypto.
  • An issue with Cookie module import on case insensitive file systems should have been resolved.
  • Cryptography module is now as a crypto function provider instead of pycrypto

• v1.8.1 Changes

  October 23, 2016

  🚀 Release 1.8.1 (2016-10-24)

  • Sessions have a new option save_accessed_time which defaults to true for
    ⚡️ backwards compatibility. Set to false to tell beaker not to update
    _accessed_time if the session hasn't been changed, for non-cookie sessions
    stores. This lets you avoid needless datastore writes. _accessed_time will
    ⚡️ always be updated when the session is intentionally saved.
  • data_serializer parameter in Session accepts a custom object with dumps and loads methods.
  • 🛠 Fixed a TypeError in exception reporting when failing to load a NamespaceManager
  • 👍 Allow to change Cookie Expiration from a value back to None, previously it had no effect.
  • 👍 Allow SessionMiddleware to setup a custom Session class through the session_class argument.
  • ➕ Added invalidate_corrupt option to CookieSessions too for valid cookies containing invalid data.
