Flask-Session is an extension for Flask that adds support for Server-side Session to your application.

The original package was at its version 0.3.1, and its latest github commit activity happened 3 years ago.

Its file-based session feature stops working since its underlying package, werkzeug, released 1.0.0 at Feb 6, 2020. See bug report here.

This fork serves as a workaround to fix that issue.

I do not have ownership of the original package "flask-session" on PyPI, so I can not publish this there, therefore normal "pip install package_name" would NOT work.

To use this package, you have to get it from github directly.

pip uninstall flask-session  # Do this if you already installed the old flask-session 0.3.1
pip install git+https://github.com/rayluo/[email protected]

Or you can put this into your requirements.txt or setup.py:

package-foo==1.2.3
git+https://github.com/rayluo/[email protected]#egg=flask-session
package-bar>=2,<3

Do this if you already installed the old flask-session 0.3.1, because the unusual installation method mentioned above would not upgrade it to 0.3.2.

pip uninstall flask-session
