How can I extend the save method in the RedisSessionRepository?

[ohHyunJae]

When I save a session with redis,

I'd like to add custom data.

RedisSessionRepository.class
    
    ....
    
    @Override
        public void save(CustomRedisSessionRepository.RedisSession session) {
            if (!session.isNew) {
                String key = getSessionKey(session.hasChangedSessionId() ? session.originalSessionId : session.getId());
                Boolean sessionExists = this.sessionRedisOperations.hasKey(key);
                if (sessionExists == null || !sessionExists) {
                    throw new IllegalStateException("Session was invalidated");
                }
            }
            session.save();

            //I want add code..... (custom data..)
        }

So I decided to expand.

public class MyRedisSessionRepository extends RedisSessionRepository {
    
    public MyRedisSessionRepository(RedisOperations<String, Object> sessionRedisOperations) {
        super(sessionRedisOperations);
    }
    
    @Override
    public void save(RedisSessionRepository.RedisSession session) {
        super.save(session);
        //add custom data...
    }
}

But I can't. The access modifier for RedisSession is 'default'.

public class RedisSessionRepository implements SessionRepository<RedisSessionRepository.RedisSession> {

...
 final class RedisSession implements Session {
  ....
 }
..
}

So I can't extend the save method of RedisSessionRepository.

Is there any other way Or is there an expandable class?

Same here. I need to adjust Format of the Session in Redis (Json instead of Hash) the session is stored. This can be achived for UserDetails etc. but not the Core Session Data itself.

Hi @ohHyunJae,

can you give us an example of the data that you are trying to add to the session? Did you try to set them in the HttpSession attributes?
