Description
Note: I'm not sure if it's currently possible to configure this index name, at least not in an easy or straightforward way.
It should be possible to configure a custom name for the session index, allowing shorter and more readable entries in Redis. This could help users who need simpler key structures for session management, enhancing readability and potentially optimizing performance by avoiding long, repetitive index names.
Currently, the session index name is hard-coded asorg.springframework.session.FindByIndexNameSessionRepository.PRINCIPAL_NAME_INDEX_NAME. When retrieving keys with commands like keys *, this long, detailed naming convention leads to outputs such as:
spring:session:index:org.springframework.session.FindByIndexNameSessionRepository.PRINCIPAL_NAME_INDEX_NAME:pedro123
This default naming makes the keys verbose and harder to work with.
This issue impacts readability and manageability of session-related keys in Redis. When working with numerous sessions, especially for applications with a high volume of users, this long index name can clutter the database and make debugging more challenging. I've explored options for a workaround, but currently, the only solution would be to allow a configurable property for this session index name.
