default session interface which uses werkzeug's securecookie
implementation. The only methods you have to implement are
:meth:`open_session` and :meth:`save_session`, the others have
useful defaults which you don't need to change.
The session object returned by the :meth:`open_session` method has to
provide a dictionary like interface plus the properties and methods
from the :class:`SessionMixin`. We recommend just subclassing a dict
and adding that mixin::
class Session(dict, SessionMixin):
pass
If :meth:`open_session` returns `None` Flask will call into
:meth:`make_null_session` to create a session that acts as replacement
if the session support cannot work because some requirement is not
fulfilled. The default :class:`NullSession` class that is created
will complain that the secret key was not set.
To replace the session interface on an application all you have to do
is to assign :attr:`flask.Flask.session_interface`::
app = Flask(__name__)
app.session_interface = MySessionInterface()
.. versionadded:: 0.7
