Dave Naffis blogged about this neat plugin that handles all kinds of session manipulation stuff, including the ability to call a method when you expire a session.
This was just what the doctor ordered for me – I had some cleanup code to call on session expiration, and darned if I could figure out how to do this…
With the SessionExpiration plugin it’s a piece of cake
class SomeController < ApplicationController
expire_session_in 5.minutes, :after_expiration => session_expiry
def session_expiry
# Do awesome cleanup operations here!
end
