This is unusual in that keys +must be UUIDs, in order to prevent different clients setting the same +key, and values are write-once, read-once to minimize the chances of +state persisting indefinitely. The stash defines two operations; +`put`, to add state and `take` to remove state. Furthermore, the view +of the stash is path-specific; by default a request will only see the +part of the stash corresponding to its own path. + +A typical example of using a stash to store state might be:: + + @handler + def handler(request, response): + # We assume this is a string representing a UUID + key = request.GET.first("id") + + if request.method == "POST": + request.server.stash.put(key, "Some sample value") + return "Added value to stash" + else: + value = request.server.stash.take(key) + assert request.server.stash.take(key) is None + return value + +:mod:`Interface <wptserve.stash>` +--------------------------------- + +.. automodule:: wptserve.stash + :members: |
