djangodysession 1.1.1
django-dysession
django-dysession is a django extension by using AWS DynamoDB as a session backend
What is a django-dysession?
Django-dysession is a simple and easy-to-use app which allow Django developers to take DyanmoDB as Session Backend Database.
DynamoDB is Fast, flexible NoSQL database service for single-digit millisecond performance at any scale.
Using DynamoDB for session storage alleviates issues that occur with session handling in a distributed web application by moving sessions off of the local file system and into a shared location. [[1]]
Easy to use! All you need is add 2 lines of Code!
Support TTL(Time to Live) attribute
Django's default session won't delete expired session data.
By using DynamoDB, we can take advantage of DynamoDB's ttl attrubute to auto delete expired session data.
No more effort to maintain and autoscale your session database ( Taking advantage of AWS serverless service! )
Provide beautiful, clearful and colorful error log
Requirements
django-dysession use boto3 to interact with AWS DynamoDB.
Boto3 is the Amazon Web Services (AWS) Software Development Kit (SDK) for Python, which allows Python developers to write software that makes use of services like DynamoDB.
Django >= 3.2
boto3 >= 1.26.59
Installation
Install from PyPI ( or manually download from PyPI ):
pip install -U django-dysession
Getting Started
First of all, add dysession into INSTALLED_APPS in settings.py.
Change SESSION_ENGINE to dysession.backends.db in order use our SessionStore.
INSTALLED_APPS = [
...
"dysession", # add dysession to installed apps
# 'django.contrib.sessions', # remove this default session
...
]
SESSION_ENGINE = "dysession.backends.db"
Second, we need to create a DynamoDB to store session data which's name is sessions as default.
Run the commands bellow in cmd.
python manage.py dysession_init
Then, we can enjoy it now!
from django.http import HttpResponse
def mainpage(request):
request.session["is_admin"] = True
request.session["bottle_of_milks"] = 20
request.session["planet_have_been_to"] = ["Earth", "Jupiter", "Saturn"]
return HttpResponse("Ayyy")
Enjoy!

This section outlines all the settings and configurations that you can put in Django's settings.py to adjust dysession's behavior.
