Dancer Session

Anonymous Monk has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

Is it possible to store a complex data structure such as a hash or array reference in a Dancer session? like

use Dancer2;
 
setting( session => 'PSGI' );
 
get '/' => sub {
    my $struct = session("struct");
    session "struct" => [1,2,3];
    return "This is my " . $@struct;
};

That depends on your chosen session backend. Some session backends seem to suggest that they support structured data like hashes or arrays. Personally, I would try to avoid them.	[reply]

Well, I tried Read more... (3 kB) After fixing the typos, and trying it without `session: PSGI` I've come to realize Dancer2::Session::PSGI is broken, it doesn't work The default Dancer2::Session::Simple allows "structs"	[reply] [d/l] [select]
