However, you also need to choose a storage type and install an appropriate client library so the app can communicate with storage.
For example, if you want to use Redis as your storage, you will need to install the redis-py_ library either directly or as an optional dependency like below:

$ pip install redis
$ pip install Flask-Session[redis]
Redis is the recommended storage type for Flask-Session, as it has the most complete support for the features of Flask-Session with minimal configuration.

Direct support
---------------
Available storage options
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

To install Flask-Session with support for a specific storage backend, use the following command, replacing ``<storage-option>`` with your chosen backend from the list below:

.. code-block:: bash
pip install Flask-Session[<storage-option>]
Available storage options and their corresponding ``<storage-option>`` values are:

Flask-Session has an increasing number of directly supported storage and client libraries.

Other libraries may work if they use the same commands as the ones listed above.
Other storage backends might be compatible with Flask-Session as long as they adhere to the command interfaces used by the libraries listed above.

Cachelib
--------

Flask-Session also indirectly supports storage and client libraries via cachelib_, which is a wrapper around various cache libraries. You must also install cachelib_ itself to use these.

Using CacheLib as a session backend
------------------------------------

.. note::

FileSystemSession was recently deprecated in favor of CacheLib, which is what is was using under the hood.

The following example demonstrates how to use CacheLib as a session backend with the file system cache. This might be useful for rapid development or testing.

.. code-block:: python
from flask import Flask, session
from flask_session import Session
from cachelib.file import FileSystemCache
app = Flask(__name__)
SESSION_TYPE = 'cachelib'
SESSION_SERIALIZATION_FORMAT = 'json'
SESSION_CACHELIB = FileSystemCache(threshold=500, cache_dir="/sessions"),
app.config.from_object(__name__)
