Just added initial sessions support to #Kitten. (Kitten is a web development kit that’s small, purrs, and loves you. Not ready for use but feel free to have a play.)

https://codeberg.org/kitten/app#sessions

Web folks, how’s that interface look to you? Simple, no? :)

Ah, the joys of having an in-process JavaScript database to play with, even if I had to write it myself (https://codeberg.org/small-tech/jsdb).

The second screenshot shows you how things are stored in JSDB (hint: as a JavaScript append-only log) ;)

#SmallWeb

Screenshot of code:

export default function (request, _response) {
if (!request.session.kittens) {
request.session.kittens = { count: 1 }
}

return html`
<h1>Kitten count</h1>
<p>${'😸️'.repeat(request.session.kittens.count++)}</p>
`
}

Screenshot of terminal command:

tail --follow /var/home/aral/.local/share/small-tech.org/kitten/database/sessions.js | bat --paging=never --language=js

1 : _['GECC8SGThu6PatgxEXxNGUQx'] = { 'createdAt': 1668092873363, 'authenticated': false };
2 : _['GECC8SGThu6PatgxEXxNGUQx']['kittens'] = { 'count': 1 };
3 : _['GECC8SGThu6PatgxEXxNGUQx']['kittens']['count'] = 2;
4 : _['GECC8SGThu6PatgxEXxNGUQx']['kittens']['count'] = 3;
5 : _['GECC8SGThu6PatgxEXxNGUQx']['kittens']['count'] = 4;
6 : _['GECC8SGThu6PatgxEXxNGUQx']['kittens']['count'] = 5;
7 : _['GECC8SGThu6PatgxEXxNGUQx']['kittens']['count'] = 6;
8: _['ndTfW1kpYznw6DSsRzgMvbZ-']['kittens']['count'] = 20;
9: _['ndTfW1kpYznw6DSsRzgMvbZ-']['kittens']['count'] = 21;
10: _['ndTfW1kpYznw6DSsRzgMvbZ-']['kittens']['count'] = 22;

@msx Nice! :) Meow from one feline web server to another. I’ll take a look at your implementation to see if there’s anything I can learn/steal and please feel free to do the same. It’s always insightful to see similar things implemented in different stacks :)
