Session Log

The Session Log extension provides an implementation of the SessionSubscriber SPI, logging each session as a SessionLogEntry entity.

When a user logs on, a SessionLogEntry instance is persisted; when they log off, the same instance is updated.

Setup

Dependency Management

In your application’s top level pom.xml, add a dependency for this module’s own bill of materials (BOM):

pom.xml

<dependencyManagement>
    <dependencies>
        <dependency>
            <groupId>org.apache.causeway.extensions</groupId>
            <artifactId>causeway-extensions-sessionlog</artifactId>
             <scope>import</scope>
            <type>pom</type>
           <version>3.1.0</version>
        </dependency>
    </dependencies>
</dependencyManagement>

Dependencies / Imports

Your application may or may not need to interact with the audit trail directly. If it does, then add a dependency/import to the applib module wherever required:

add this dependency:

pom.xml

<dependencies>
    <dependency>
        <groupId>org.apache.causeway.extensions</groupId>
        <artifactId>causeway-extensions-sessionlog-applib</artifactId>
    </dependency>
</dependencies>

and @Import this module:

MyModule.java

@Configuration
@Import({
    CausewayModuleExtSessionLogApplib.class,
    // ...
})
public class MyModule { ... }

In your application’s App Manifest, import the implementation modules of this extension. The exact modules to use will depend upon the persistence mechanism in use:

add this dependency to your webapp’s pom.xml:

pom.xml

<dependencies>
    <dependency>
        <groupId>org.apache.causeway.extensions</groupId>
        <artifactId>causeway-extensions-sessionlog-persistence-xxx</artifactId> (1)
    </dependency>
</dependencies>

1	either: `causeway-extensions-sessionlog-persistence-jpa` (JPA/Eclipselink) or `causeway-extensions-sessionlog-persistence-jdo` (JDO/DataNucleus)

and @Import this module to your app manifest:
MyAppManifest.java
```
@Configuration
@Import({
    CausewayModuleExtSessionLogPersistenceXxx.class,    (1)
    // ...
})
public class MyAppManifest { ... }
```
1 either

CausewayModuleExtSessionLogPersistenceJpa (JPA/Eclipselink) or

CausewayModuleExtSessionLogPersistenceJdo (JDO/DataNucleus)

menubar.layout.xml

Once configured, the extension provides a number of menu actions. You can use menubars.layout.xml to arrange these as you see fit. To get you started, the following fragment adds all of the actions to an "Activity" secondary menu:

menubars.layout.xml

<mb:secondary>
    ...
    <mb:menu>
        <mb:named>Activity</mb:named>
        ...
        <mb:section>
            <mb:named>Sessions</mb:named>
            <mb:serviceAction id="activeSessions" objectType="causeway.ext.sessionLog.SessionLogMenu"/>
            <mb:serviceAction id="findSessions" objectType="causeway.ext.sessionLog.SessionLogMenu"/>
        </mb:section>
        ...
    </mb:menu>
</mb:secondary>
