''' Utilities for generating and manipulating session IDs.

A session ID would typically be associated with each browser tab viewing
an application or plot. Each session has its own state separate from any
other sessions hosted by the server.

Typically, each browser tab connected to a Bokeh application has its own session ID. In production deployments of a Bokeh app, session IDs should be random and unguessable - otherwise users of the app could interfere with one another. If session IDs are signed with a secret key, the server can verify that the generator of the session ID was "authorized" (the generator had to know the secret key). This can be used to have a separate process, such as another web application, which generates new sessions on a Bokeh server. This other process may require users to log in before redirecting them to the Bokeh server with a valid session ID, for example.
