How do you listen for session expiration event in cherrypy?

I've done the setup for session timeout:

'tools.sessions.timeout': 30 'tools.sessions.on': True

Everything works fine, however, I am redirected to the login page only after I refresh the current page.

Is there a way to listen for the session expiration event and do the redirect automatically when this happens?

Solution

You could use javascript and setTimeout to redirect just before the session times out.

<body onload="setTimeout('window.location = \'www.yourdomain.com\';', 1700000);">

Hope this helps.
