As I'm fairly new to the web app development, I want to know more details about session management in my case. What I'm trying to implement is like anonymous session in Amazon, for example, a user comes to the site without login, drop items in the cart, now I need to save something in the client browser to identify the user, I guess in this case I can use the session id:
request.environ['beaker.session'].id but how can I tell the browser to 'save' it into the client cookie? at the same time, I will create a record in the database to save the item with the session id. When user comes back to the site later on, the system will identify the user by matching the cookie with the session id saved in the database, so how can I 'retrieve' the cookie in this case? And BTW, is the generated session id always unique?
