3. github.com/go-redis/redis (for using Redis as the backend store)

Usage

sessionExpiryTime := int64(86400)
dbFolder, _ := os.Getwd()
sessionObject, err := Init("name_of_session", false, sessionExpiryTime, dbFolder)
sessionData, err := sessionObject.NewSession("somekeyhere", "userIPAddress")
fmt.Println("Auth Token is ", sessionData.Token)

// Check the status of the token. An error is returned in case the token does not exist. Returns nil otherwise.
_, err = sessionObject.CheckStatus(sessionData.Token)

// To delete a token
sessionObject.DeleteSession(sessionData.Token)

// For using Redis as the backend store
shortRedisDBSession, err := InitRedis("", "", 0, sessionExpiryTime)
