Introducing the Socket Python SDK
The initial version of the Socket Python SDK is now on PyPI, enabling developers to more easily interact with the Socket REST API in Python projects.
github.com/gorilla/sessions
[!IMPORTANT] The latest version of this repository requires go 1.23 because of the new partitioned attribute. The last version that is compatible with older versions of go is v1.3.0.
gorilla/sessions provides cookie and filesystem sessions and infrastructure for custom session backends.
The key features are:
Let's start with an example that shows the sessions API in a nutshell:
import (
"net/http"
"github.com/gorilla/sessions"
)
// Note: Don't store your key in your source code. Pass it via an
// environmental variable, or flag (or both), and don't accidentally commit it
// alongside your code. Ensure your key is sufficiently random - i.e. use Go's
// crypto/rand or securecookie.GenerateRandomKey(32) and persist the result.
var store = sessions.NewCookieStore([]byte(os.Getenv("SESSION_KEY")))
func MyHandler(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) {
// Get a session. We're ignoring the error resulted from decoding an
// existing session: Get() always returns a session, even if empty.
session, _ := store.Get(r, "session-name")
// Set some session values.
session.Values["foo"] = "bar"
session.Values[42] = 43
// Save it before we write to the response/return from the handler.
err := session.Save(r, w)
if err != nil {
http.Error(w, err.Error(), http.StatusInternalServerError)
return
}
}
First we initialize a session store calling NewCookieStore()
and passing a
secret key used to authenticate the session. Inside the handler, we call
store.Get()
to retrieve an existing session or create a new one. Then we set
some session values in session.Values, which is a map[interface{}]interface{}
.
And finally we call session.Save()
to save the session in the response.
More examples are available at package documentation.

Floating dependency ranges in npm can introduce instability and security risks into your project by allowing unverified or incompatible versions to be installed automatically, leading to unpredictable behavior and potential conflicts.

A new Rust RFC proposes "Trusted Publishing" for Crates.io, introducing short-lived access tokens via OIDC to improve security and reduce risks associated with long-lived API tokens.
