Define a user type to be used with the session authentication logic

data User = User String

Backends

Choose your backend among the provided ones:

initManager :: Session.Config -> IO Session.Manager
initManager config = 
  Session.setup config =<< mapStorage
  -- Session.setup config =<< fileStorage "/var/sessions"
  -- Session.setup config =<< hasqlStorage "postgres://postgres@localhost:5432/sessionula"
  -- Session.setup config =<< hedisStorage Hedis.defaultConnectInfo "sessions:" (Session.cfgTokenTTL config)

Frontends

You can then use this with one of the provided frontends

WAI

sessionula-wai

waiApp :: Application
waiApp request respond = do
  Session.lookup @Bool handle >>= \case
    Nothing  -> Session.set True handle
    Just _ -> void $ Session.modify not handle
  boolSession <- Session.lookup @Bool handle
  respond $ responseLBS ok200 [(hContentType, "text/plain")] $ pack $ show boolSession
  where
    handle = extractSession request

mainWithWai :: IO ()
mainWithWai = do
  manager <- initManager Session.defaultConfig
  run 8080 $ middleware manager defaultSessionCookie { setCookieSecure = False } defaultCsrfSettings waiApp

Servant

sessionula-servant
sessionula-servant-server

type API = Session User :> Get '[PlainText] String

servantApp :: Application
servantApp = serve (Proxy @API) server

server :: Server API
server = handler
  where
    handler :: Session.Handle User -> Handler String
    handler handle = do
      Session.lookup @Bool handle >>= \case
        Nothing  -> Session.set True handle
        Just _ -> void $ Session.modify not handle
      boolSession <- Session.lookup @Bool handle
      pure $ show boolSession

mainWithServant :: IO ()
mainWithServant = do
  manager <- initManager Session.defaultConfig
  run 8080 $ middleware manager defaultSessionCookie { setCookieSecure = False } defaultCsrfSettings servantApp
