This is a very bad design. Why don't simply store the cart ID in the session, 
rather then using a session ID for a cart's ID? This is just one of the 
problems you're going to face.
For example, implementing abandoned cart reminders is going to be no joyride 
and pretty much standard functionality in e-commerce these days. Sessions are 
there to store data and Django automatically copies the data in the session 
from anonymous user to logged in user. It's what sessions are made for.

Re: saving django session data for anonymous user

['Anthony Flury' via Django users]

How are you authenticating them ?

Assuming you call :

        authenicate( username, password)

then before that call - store the sesssion key

after that call - identify the new session key

with the old and new session keys - now update the database - so that 
the cart gets associated with the new session key.

previous session data we lose. I am not finding much help in google:(.

Would that work ?

Thanks  Anthony for your prompt reply. current implementation is that i am
using django orm query to pull the user cart details and cart id(session
key) is the key so when user switch from anonymous
user to actual user then i loses the data came from the query.

so when user gets authenticated then it create new session id then previous
session data we lose. I am not finding much help in google:(.

Thanks,

Siddharth

Well, the easy solution is to follow the documentation[1]:

Note that any data set during the anonymous session is retained in the
session after a user logs in.
