How to store session in php in json format instead of default built-in encoding?

php How to store session in json format instead of default built-in encoding?

After some fiddling, even if session_save_handler is overridden by its own class or method, the incoming and outgoing data of write and read are still serialized, and serialization by session is not ordinary serialization... I still can't solve the problem of memcached saving session data. Format of json

php How to store session in json format instead of default built-in encoding?

After some fiddling, even if session_save_handler is overridden by its own class or method, the incoming and outgoing data of write and read are still serialized, and serialization by session is not ordinary serialization... I still can't solve the problem of memcached saving session data. Format of json

Found the solution:

<code><?php namespace Lboy\Session\SaveHandler;

/**
 * Memcached JSON-formatted session save handler
 *
 * The default memcache session save handler stores sessions encoded with
 * session_encode, but the encoded session is not simple to parse in other
 * languages. Therefore, this class encodes the session in JSON to make reading
 * the session in other languages simple.
 *
 * Note: This class uses the newer php-memcached extension, not php-memcache!
 * @see http://php.net/manual/en/book.memcached.php

     */
    public function __construct(\Memcached $memcached)
    {
        $this->memcached = $memcached;
    }

    /**

    {
        return true;

    public function destroy($id)
    {
        return $this->memcached->delete("sessions/{$id}");
    }

    /**

    public function gc($maxlifetime)
    {
        // let memcached handle this with expiration time

    }

        $this->sessionName = $name;
        $this->lifetime = ini_get('session.gc_maxlifetime');

        $_SESSION = json_decode($this->memcached->get("sessions/{$id}"), true);

        if (isset($_SESSION) && !empty($_SESSION) && $_SESSION != null)
        {
            return session_encode();
        }

        return '';
    }

    /**
     * Write session data
