<p>User identities can be created, accessed and destroyed using the <ahref="struct.Identity.html"title="Identity"><code>Identity</code></a> extractor in your
<p>By default, <code>actix-identity</code> does not automatically log out users. You can change this behaviour
by customising the configuration for <ahref="struct.IdentityMiddleware.html"title="IdentityMiddleware"><code>IdentityMiddleware</code></a> via <ahref="struct.IdentityMiddleware.html#method.builder"title="IdentityMiddleware::builder"><code>IdentityMiddleware::builder</code></a>.</p>
<p>In particular, you can automatically log out users who:</p>
<ul>
<li>have been inactive for a while (see <ahref="config/struct.IdentityMiddlewareBuilder.html#method.visit_deadline"><code>IdentityMiddlewareBuilder::visit_deadline</code></a>;</li>
<li>logged in too long ago (see <ahref="config/struct.IdentityMiddlewareBuilder.html#method.login_deadline"><code>IdentityMiddlewareBuilder::login_deadline</code></a>).</li>
