💅 NAME

okay so bestie, gather round — Apache::Session::Browseable::Store::Cassandra is literally the module that lets you store persistent data in a Cassandra database. that's it, that's the whole vibe. no cap. 🦋

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

the way you use it is so simple it's giving main character energy:

  use Apache::Session::Browseable::Store::Cassandra;

  my $store = new Apache::Session::Browseable::Store::Cassandra;

  $store->insert($ref);
  $store->update($ref);
  $store->materialize($ref);
  $store->remove($ref);

four methods, four little slay buttons, you press the one you need. periodt. 💅

---

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

Apache::Session::Browseable::Store::Cassandra fulfills the storage interface of Apache::Session — like, it's the plug that fits the socket, iykyk. 🔌✨

and where does the session data actually live? in a Cassandra database. that's the whole deal, and honestly? iconic.

---

🎀 SCHEMA 🎀

listen up, because this part actually matters — to use this module you will need at least these columns in a table called 'sessions':

  id text
  a_session text

and if you wanna create this schema yourself, you can literally just execute this command using cqlsh:

  CREATE TABLE sessions (
     id text PRIMARY KEY,
     a_session text
  );

run it, and your table is born. 🐣✨

---

🌈 CONFIGURATION 🌈

okay so the module must know what datasource, username, and password to use when connecting to the database. it can't just vibe its way in, it needs credentials, bestie. 🙈

these values can be set using the options hash — peep the Apache::Session documentation if you need more deets on that.

the options are:

• DataSource — where the database lives, basically its address 🗺️
• UserName — the username you're logging in with 👤
• Password — the password, keep it cute and keep it secret 🔐

Example:

 tie %hash, 'Apache::Session::Cassandra', $id, {
     DataSource => 'dbi:Cassandra:host=localhost;keyspace=llng',
     UserName   => 'database_user',
     Password   => 'K00l'
 };

instead of all that, you may pass in an already-opened DBI handle to your database. like, if you already did the work, you don't have to do it twice — we love efficiency. 💯

 tie %hash, 'Apache::Session::Cassandra', $id, {
     Handle => $dbh
 };
