Flask-session中的cookie操作

flask-session中默认的cookie操作有：提取cookie和设置cookie

提取cookie：

    def open_session(self, app, request):
        s = self.get_signing_serializer(app)
        if s is None:
            return None
        val = request.cookies.get(app.session_cookie_name)
        if not val:
            return self.session_class()
        max_age = total_seconds(app.permanent_session_lifetime)
        try:
            data = s.loads(val, max_age=max_age)
            return self.session_class(data)
        except BadSignature:
            return self.session_class()

Flask默认的提取机制只会取得一个cookie即session_cookie_name，如果session.permanent设置为true，之后permanent_session_lifetime才能呢发挥作用，max_age才能有值。只有采用我们的secret-key并且在max_age范围内的cookie才能够成功的loads出来。

设置cookie：

    def save_session(self, app, session, response):
        domain = self.get_cookie_domain(app)
        path = self.get_cookie_path(app)

        # Delete case.  If there is no session we bail early.
        # If the session was modified to be empty we remove the
        # whole cookie.return self.session_interface.save_session(self, session, response)
        if not session:
            if session.modified:
                response.delete_cookie(app.session_cookie_name,
                                       domain=domain, path=path)
            return

        # Modification case.  There are upsides and downsides to
        # emitting a set-cookie header each request.  The behavior
        # is controlled by the :meth:`should_set_cookie` method
        # which performs a quick check to figure out if the cookie
        # should be set or not.  This is controlled by the
        # SESSION_REFRESH_EACH_REQUEST config flag as well as
        # the permanent flag on the session itself.
        if not self.should_set_cookie(app, session):
            return

        httponly = self.get_cookie_httponly(app)
        secure = self.get_cookie_secure(app)
        expires = self.get_expiration_time(app, session)
        val = self.get_signing_serializer(app).dumps(dict(session))
        response.set_cookie(app.session_cookie_name, val,
                            expires=expires, httponly=httponly,
                            domain=domain, path=path, secure=secure)

值得注意的是val = self.get_signing_serializer(app).dumps(dict(session))采用secret-key时间戳签名的方式加密整个session的。
expires = self.get_expiration_time(app, session)只有在session.permanent设置为true的时候才会添加datetime.utcnow()+permanent_session_lifetime到expires中去的。

总结

flask的session对cookie的处理采用两套时间保证机制，expires的设置保证了浏览器保存cookie的时间，而secret-key+时间戳再次保证了cookie的时间正确性。
