Enum actix_session::config::SessionLifecycle

#[non_exhaustive]
pub enum SessionLifecycle {
    BrowserSession(BrowserSession),
    PersistentSession(PersistentSession),
}

Determines what type of session cookie should be used and how its lifecycle should be managed.

Used by SessionMiddlewareBuilder::session_lifecycle.

Variants (Non-exhaustive)

Non-exhaustive enums could have additional variants added in future. Therefore, when matching against variants of non-exhaustive enums, an extra wildcard arm must be added to account for any future variants.

BrowserSession(BrowserSession)

The session cookie will expire when the current browser session ends.

When does a browser session end? It depends on the browser! Chrome, for example, will often continue running in the background when the browser is closed—session cookies are not deleted and they will still be available when the browser is opened again. Check the documentation of the browsers you are targeting for up-to-date information.

PersistentSession(PersistentSession)

The session cookie will be a persistent cookie.

Persistent cookies have a pre-determined lifetime, specified via the Max-Age or Expires attribute. They do not disappear when the current browser session ends.
