| 628025100 | MDU6SXNzdWU2MjgwMjUxMDA= | 785 | Datasette secret mechanism - initially for signed cookies | 9599 | closed | 0 | 5512395 | 11 | 2020-05-31T19:14:52Z | 2020-06-06T00:43:40Z | 2020-06-01T00:18:40Z | OWNER | See comment in https://github.com/simonw/datasette/issues/784#issuecomment-636514974 Datasette needs to be able to set signed cookies - which means it needs a mechanism for safely handling a signing secret. Since Datasette is a long-running process the default behaviour here can be to create a random secret on startup. This means that if the server restarts any signed cookies will be invalidated. If the user wants a persistent secret they'll have to generate it themselves - maybe by setting an environment variable? |
