The Databunker Session Store is an implementation of the Express.js session store that uses Databunker Secure Session Storage as the persistence layer for sessions. The session middleware for Express is provided by the session-express module. Databunker is a Swiss army knife tool for encrypted storage of personal records or PII:

Node.js example

const { v4: uuidv4 } = require('uuid');
const app = require('express')();
const session = require('express-session');
const DataBunkerSessionStore = require('@databunker/session-store')(session);

const port = 3200;
const host = '0.0.0.0';
const DataBunkerConf = {
  url: 'http://localhost:3000/',
  token: 'DEMO'
};

const s = session({
  genid: function(req) {
    return uuidv4();
  },
  secret: 'JustASecret',
  resave: false,
  saveUninitialized: true,
  store: new DataBunkerSessionStore(DataBunkerConf)
});

app.use(s);

app.get('/', (req, res) => {
  sess=req.session;
  if (!sess.count) {
    sess.count = 1;
  } else {
    sess.count ++;
  }
  res.send('Counter: '+sess.count.toString());
  res.end();
})

app.listen(port, host, () => {
  console.log(`Example app listening at http://${host}:${port}`)
})
