01/22/2023, 9:39 PMHi there. Is it possible to have multiple supertokens cores for one application?
I'm trying to create one core for standard authorization with a small token validity period and one core for a mobile app, where the token will be valid for a long time.
At a time I'm calling init ( from supertokens_python) when initialising my Django project . if I call init a second time with configs related to another supertokens core , will it work?
I'm using Django btw

01/23/2023, 2:55 AMOur sessions are based on inactivity time. So changing the access token lifetime doesn’t really matter if you want to change the session lifetime on a per client basis

01/23/2023, 2:56 AMYou may want to override the refresh function in the session recipe to check how much time has passed since the last refresh, based on client type and if it’s more than a certain amount (for that client type), you can revoke the session and return a 401

async def refresh_session(recipe_implementation: RecipeImplementation, refresh_token: str, anti_csrf_token: Union[str, None], contains_custom_header: bool)recipe.session.session_functionsasync def refresh_session(self, request: BaseRequest, user_context: Dict[str, Any]) ‑> SessionContainersupertokens_python.recipe.session.recipe_implementationr

01/23/2023, 9:07 AMYou can save this in the session data. So when the session is created, save this value, and when the session is refreshed, update this value in the session data object.
