NAME
    CGI::Session::Driver::mariadb - CGI::Session driver for MariaDB database

SYNOPSIS
        $s = CGI::Session->new('driver:mariadb', $sid);
        $s = CGI::Session->new('driver:mariadb', $sid, { DataSource  => 'dbi:MariaDB:test',
                                                        User        => 'sherzodr',
                                                        Password    => 'hello' });
        $s = CGI::Session->new('driver:mariadb', $sid, { Handle => $dbh });

DESCRIPTION
    mariadb stores session records in a MariaDB table. For details, see
    CGI::Session::Driver::DBI, its parent class.

    It is important that the session ID column be defined as a primary key
    or unique:

     CREATE TABLE sessions (
         id CHAR(32) NOT NULL PRIMARY KEY,
         a_session TEXT NOT NULL
     );

    To use different column names, adjust your CREATE TABLE statement
    accordingly, and then:

        $s = CGI::Session->new('driver:mariadb', undef, {
            TableName=>'session',
            IdColName=>'my_id',
            DataColName=>'my_data',
            DataSource=>'dbi:MariaDB:project',
        });

    or

        $s = CGI::Session->new('driver:mariadb', undef, {
            TableName=>'session',
            IdColName=>'my_id',
            DataColName=>'my_data',
            Handle=>$dbh,
        });

  DRIVER ARGUMENTS
    mariadb driver supports all the arguments documented in
    CGI::Session::Driver::DBI. Like the mariadb driver, you can optionally
    omit the "dbi:MariaDB:" prefix:

        $s = CGI::Session->new('driver:mariadb', $sid, { DataSource=>'shopping_cart' });

  BACKWARDS COMPATIBILITY
    Global variables like $CGI::Session::MySQL::TABLE_NAME are no longer
    used. Refer to the parent CGI::Session::Driver::DBI documentation for
    new methods.
