Storing Symfony2 sessions in memcached






Even if the only example in Symfony cookbook is about storing sessions with PDO, adapting it to memcached is pretty straightforward.

Memcached installation

If it’s not already done, install the following packages (supposing you are on a Debian-like system) :


aptitude install memcached php5-memcached

This will install a memcached server and the PHP extension to use it. The server should e running on localhost, port 11211.
Just to be sure, check that the php extension has been enabled.

Modifying the session handler

Now, we’ll update our configuration to make our app use memcache to store sessions. To do that, we’ll use the MemcachedSessionHandler provided in the HttpFoundation bundle. As he need a \Memcached instance to work (and chat with our memcached server), we’ll use services to build the whole thing.

services            :


session.memcached            :


class            :            Memcached


arguments            :


persistent_id            :            %            session_memcached_prefix%


calls            :


-            [            addServer            ,            [            %            session_memcached_host%            ,            %            session_memcached_port%            ]]


                        


session.handler.memcached            :


class            :            Symfony\Component\HttpFoundation\Session\Storage\Handler\MemcachedSessionHandler


arguments            :            [            @            session.memcached            ,            {            prefix            :            %            session_memcached_prefix%            ,            expiretime            :            %            session_memcached_expire%            }]

As usual, the configuration variables are stored in the parameters.yml file. Considering how simple they are, I won’t explain them but don’t hesitate to read

  memcached’s documentation

 if they are not clear enough.

parameters            :


# ...


                        


session_memcached_host            :            localhost


session_memcached_port            :            11211


session_memcached_prefix            :            sess


session_memcached_expire            :            3600

Once we are done configuring our services, we just have to tell our application to use the service we just created. 

imports            :


# ....


-            {            resource            :            services/session.yml            }


                        


                        


framework            :


# ....


session            :


handler_id            :            session.handler.memcached

That’s it!
