FAQ

After the download, you have to make one include require_once('vendor/autoload.php');. After that you have to import the classes with use statements.

Example:
If you use only one package a project is not needed. But if you use more then one package, without a project it is not possible to import the classes with use statements.

In general, it is recommended to use always a project to download your libraries. In an application normally there is more than one library needed.
Some PHP packages are not free to download and because of that hosted in private repositories. In this case some credentials are needed to access such packages. Please use the auth.json textarea to insert credentials, if a package is coming from a private repository. You can look here for more information.

  • Some hosting areas are not accessible by a terminal or SSH. Then it is not possible to use Composer.
  • To use Composer is sometimes complicated. Especially for beginners.
  • Composer needs much resources. Sometimes they are not available on a simple webspace.
  • If you are using private repositories you don't need to share your credentials. You can set up everything on our site and then you provide a simple download link to your team member.
  • Simplify your Composer build process. Use our own command line tool to download the vendor folder as binary. This makes your build process faster and you don't need to expose your credentials for private repositories.

Informations about the package craft-dbsessions

Craft DB Sessions Handler

For Craft 2.x. Sets up a database sesssion handler using Craft's existing DB and Caching libraries to ensure that only a single database connection is ever created.

This is not a true Craft plugin, but is best distributed as one.

Installation

Install through composer (recommended):

composer require imarc/craft-dbsessions

Alternatively place all files into a craft/plugins/dbsessions directory.

Usage

Add the following at the very top of your public/index.php file:

require __DIR__ . '/../craft/plugins/dbsessions/SessionHandler.php';
\Imarc\CraftDatabaseSessions\SessionHandler::register();

Your sessions will now be stored in craft's database instead of on the filesystem.

The dbsessions_sessions database table used by this library should be created automatically. If there are restrictive database permissions, you can use the following migration to create the table manually:

Why?

Sometimes, in an high-availability environment with multiple application servers, storing the sessions directly on the filesystem is not ideal as there is no consistency to which application server an end-user is hitting. Redis or Memcached is recommended over using the DB for sessions as Craft can work with those out of the box, but DB is fine if those services aren't available for whatever reason.
