Creating a Session

You can create a session using the ServerInstance#createSession methods.

• Java
• Python

PgxSession createSession(String source)
PgxSession createSession(String source, long idleTimeout, long taskTimeout, TimeUnit unit)

session = create_session(source, idle_timeout=None, task_timeout=None, time_unit='milliseconds')

The preceding methods accept the following arguments:

• source is any arbitrary string that describes the client. Currently, this string is only used for logging purposes.

• The user can specify the idle timeout (idleTimeout) and task timeout (taskTimeout) when creating a new session. If these values are not specified, default values are used.
