         ### Sessions expire when the user closes the browser ###
  
### add this line in settings.py ###
SESSION_EXPIRE_AT_BROWSER_CLOSE = True

---------### Sessions expire after a period of inactivity ###------------------
  						### Fisrt way ###
  
### 1- set a timestamp in the session on every request ###
request.session['last_activity'] = datetime.now()
### 2- add a middleware to detect if the session is expired ###
### Note => search how to add a middleware ###
class SessionExpiredMiddleware:
    def process_request(request):
        last_activity = request.session['last_activity']
        now = datetime.now()

        if (now - last_activity).minutes > 10:
            # Do logout / expire session
            # and then...
            return HttpResponseRedirect("LOGIN_PAGE_URL")

        if not request.is_ajax():
            # don't set this for ajax requests or else your
            # expired session checks will keep the session from
            # expiring :)
            request.session['last_activity'] = now
            
---------### Sessions expire after a period of inactivity ###------------------
  						### second way ###
          
### add these lines in settings.py ###
SESSION_EXPIRE_AT_BROWSER_CLOSE = True
SESSION_COOKIE_AGE = 10 # set just 10 seconds to test
SESSION_SAVE_EVERY_REQUEST = True # whenever you make new request, It saves the session and updates timeout to expire
### A session expired when you close the browser even if SESSION_COOKIE_AGE set ###
### Only when you are idle for more than 10 seconds, the session will expire ###

The session is the interval at which the client logs on to the server and logs out the server. The data that is required to be saved in the session is stored in a temporary directory on the server.
