An ASP.NET session-state store-provider implementation using RavenDB for persistence.
The easiest way to install is via the NuGet package (http://nuget.org/List/Packages/Raven.AspNet.SessionState).
<configuration>
<connectionStrings>
<add name="SessionState" connectionString="Url = http://localhost:8080; DefaultDatabase=SessionState;" />
</connectionStrings>
<system.web>
<sessionState mode="Custom" customProvider="RavenSessionStateStore">
<providers>
<add name="RavenSessionStateStore" type="Raven.AspNet.SessionState.RavenSessionStateStoreProvider" connectionStringName="SessionState" />
</providers>
</sessionState>
</system.web>
</configuration>
To have RavenDb automatically remove expired session state, install the Expiration Bundle.
Run-time instrumentation is provided via NLog and Glimpse
The RavenDB SessionStateStoreProvider logs via NLog. See NLog documentation for details on how to configure NLog.
For example, to log to a text file, place a file called NLog.config in your bin directory, with the contents:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<nlog xmlns="http://www.nlog-project.org/schemas/NLog.xsd" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance">
<targets>
<target xsi:type="File" name="file" layout="${longdate}|${level:uppercase=true}|${logger}|${message}${exception:format=tostring}"
fileName="${basedir}/ravenDbSessionState.log"></target>
</targets>
<rules>
<logger name="Raven.AspNet.SessionState.*" minlevel="Debug" writeTo="file" />
</rules>
</nlog>
Instrumentation is also provided via the RavenDB profiling plugin for Glimpse.
See the Glimpse documentation for information on configuring and enabling Glimpse.
