Python: Redis as session backend to Beaker

Question

Anyone had success with using Redis as Beaker backend? Can you tell me link or library how to do it? I am looking for any library which does this but could not get anything out of google search.

Answer 1

I have posted to pylons user group and this information resolve my question..

Here are the steps that worked for me:

1. easy_install redis
2. easy_install pip
3. pip install git+git://github.com/bbangert/beaker_extensions.git
4. Edit Pylons' development.ini

[app:main] full_stack = true static_files = true

cache_dir = %(here)s/data beaker.session.type = redis beaker.session.url:127.0.0.1:6379 beaker.session.key = appname

1. (Optional) Edit this file and change the serialization method to JSON. Even though JSON is not as efficient byte for byte I like how it is easily readable and relatively well supported across the technologies I've chosen:
