Provides a UserSession object that works just like Session does, except it's persistent so you can preserve state across devices *and* sessions.

Overview

The User Session Meteor Smart Package is a powerful tool designed to enhance user experience by providing a persistent UserSession object. Unlike traditional session management, which typically loses state when a user switches devices or closes their session, this package maintains state across various devices and interactions, making it essential for applications that require a seamless continuity for users. In addition to its core functionality, it offers several extra methods that enhance the overall management of user session data.

This package's versatility ensures that developers can easily manage user sessions without the risk of losing important information between sessions, which is a common pain point in many applications. Whether you are building a complex web application or a simple project, the User Session package is an excellent addition to any developer’s toolkit.

Features

  • Persistent Sessions: Maintains user session data across multiple devices and sessions for a seamless experience.
  • Set Variable: Easily add a new variable to the user session with the UserSession.set(key, value) method.
  • Get Variable: Retrieve the value of any session variable using UserSession.get(key), ensuring easy access to stored information.
  • Delete Variable: Remove any unwanted user session variable with UserSession.delete(key), providing flexibility in data management.
  • Equality Check: Use UserSession.equals(key, value) to verify if a session variable holds a specific value, aiding in state validation.
  • List Variables: Obtain a complete list of user session variables as an object through UserSession.list(), simplifying the data overview.
  • Server Integration: All methods are available on the server with an additional userId argument, allowing specific user session control.
