Token stores

The following token store adapters are bundled together with fmrest-core.

Memory

This is the default token store. It uses a memory-based store for the session tokens. This is generally good enough during development, but generally a bad idea for production as in-memory tokens aren't shared across threads/processes.

# config/initializers/fmrest.rb

FmRest.token_store = FmRest::TokenStore::Memory

ActiveRecord

On Rails apps that already use ActiveRecord, setting up this token store should be dead simple:

FmRest.token_store = FmRest::TokenStore::ActiveRecord

No migrations are needed, the token store table will be created automatically when needed, defaulting to the table name "fmrest_session_tokens". If you want to change the table name you can do so by initializing the token store and passing it the :table_name option:

FmRest.token_store = FmRest::TokenStore::ActiveRecord.new(table_name: "my_token_store")

Redis

To use the Redis token store add gem "redis" to your Gemfile, then do:

FmRest.token_store = FmRest::TokenStore::Redis

You can also initialize it with the following options:

  • :redis - A Redis object to use as connection, if ommited a new Redis object will be created with remaining options
  • :prefix - The prefix to use for token keys, by default "fmrest-token:"
  • Any other options will be passed to Redis.new if :redis isn't provided

Examples:

# Passing a Redis connection explicitly
FmRest.token_store = FmRest::TokenStore::Redis.new(redis: Redis.new, prefix: "my-fancy-prefix:")

# Passing options for Redis.new
FmRest.token_store = FmRest::TokenStore::Redis.new(prefix: "my-fancy-prefix:", host: "10.0.1.1", port: 6380, db: 15)

Moneta

Moneta is a key/value store wrapper around many different storage backends. If ActiveRecord or Redis don't suit your needs, chances are Moneta will.

To use it add gem "moneta" to your Gemfile, then do:

FmRest.token_store = FmRest::TokenStore::Moneta

By default the :Memory moneta backend will be used.

You can also initialize it with the following options:

  • :backend - The moneta backend to initialize the store with
  • :prefix - The prefix to use for token keys, by default "fmrest-token:"
  • Any other options will be passed to Moneta.new

Examples:

# Using YAML as a backend with a custom prefix
FmRest.token_store = FmRest::TokenStore::Moneta.new(
  backend: :YAML,
  file:    "tmp/tokens.yml",
  prefix:  "my-tokens"
)
