## Storing Items
|
||||
|
||||
To store items in the session call the put method on the Session class:
|
||||
|
||||
Session::put('name', 'Taylor');
|
||||
|
||||
The first parameter is the **key** to the session item. You will use this key to retrieve the item from the session. The second parameter is the **value** of the item.
|
||||
|
||||
The **flash** method stores an item in the session that will expire after the next request. It's useful for storing temporary data like status or error messages:
|
||||
|
||||
Session::flash('status', 'Welcome Back!');
|
||||
|
||||
<a name="get"></a>
|
||||
## Retrieving Items
|
||||
|
||||
You can use the **get** method on the Session class to retrieve any item in the session, including flash data. Just pass the key of the item you wish to retrieve:
|
||||
|
||||
$name = Session::get('name');
|
||||
|
||||
By default, NULL will be returned if the session item does not exist. However, you may pass a default value as a second parameter to the get method:
|
||||
|
||||
$name = Session::get('name', 'Fred');
|
||||
|
||||
$name = Session::get('name', function() {return 'Fred';});
|
||||
|
||||
Now, "Fred" will be returned if the "name" item does not exist in the session.
|
||||
|
||||
Laravel even provides a simple way to determine if a session item exists using the **has** method:
|
||||
|
||||
if (Session::has('name'))
|
||||
{
|
||||
$name = Session::get('name');
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
<a name="forget"></a>
|
||||
## Removing Items
|
||||
|
||||
To remove an item from the session use the **forget** method on the Session class:
|
||||
|
||||
Session::forget('name');
|
||||
|
||||
You can even remove all of the items from the session using the **flush** method:
|
||||
|
||||
Session::flush();
|
||||
|
||||
<a name="regeneration"></a>
|
||||
## Regeneration
|
||||
|
||||
Sometimes you may want to "regenerate" the session ID. This simply means that a new, random session ID will be assigned to the session. Here's how to do it:
|
||||
|
||||
Session::regenerate();
