Joomla 2.5: set session inside & get session outside

We have a need to set a session in joomla extension (e.g. component) and get (read) session in a external file  (outside joomla).

Here is the sample code:

//set session in a joomla extension
$session =& JFactory::getSession();
$session->set('asession', 'avalue');


//get session in a external file (outside joomla)

define( '_JEXEC', 1 );
define( 'DS', DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR );
define( 'JPATH_BASE', realpath(dirname(__FILE__).'/..' )); //should change to match to your file directory
require_once ( JPATH_BASE .DS.'includes'.DS.'defines.php' );
require_once ( JPATH_BASE .DS.'includes'.DS.'framework.php' );

$mainframe = JFactory::getApplication('site');
$mainframe->initialise();
$session =& JFactory::getSession();
$asessionvalue = $session->get(' asession ');

Google Apps Script: get url request parameter

Get it from doGet(e) { e.parameter.ParameterName; //or  e.parameter["param"]; }

E.g. URL: https://sites.google.com/macros/exec?service=XXXXXXXXXXXXX&test=sample_parameter

Code sample:

function doGet(e) {
  var app = UiApp.createApplication();
  var aLabel = app.createLabel("I love Apps Script!").setStyleAttribute("fontSize","16px");
  var verticalpanel = app.createVerticalPanel();
  var mybutton = app.createButton(e.parameter.test);
  verticalpanel.add(aLabel);
  verticalpanel.add(mybutton);
  app.add(verticalpanel);
  return app;
}
