Lastest release
This is a plugin for pyramid which provides a simple authentication system. It generates the form and the urls automatically:
- /login: display the login form
- /logout: logout the user
- /forbidden: the user is redirected to this page when he is logged but doesn't have the right permission to see a page.
In a future we will be able to defined the base of the urls in the setting file.
Installation
Add pyramid_auth in your setup.py in install_requires list
In your .ini file add pyramid_auth to pyramid.includes like this:
pyramid.includes = pyramid_auth ...
In the same file you need to pass the function to validate the login/password like this:
pyramid_auth.validate_function = project.module.validate_password
This function should take in parameters the login and the password, and returns a boolean: True if the password and the login match.
Optional
If you want to change the rendering of the template to include your design you can:
- Create a template in the folder templates/auth of your project named base.mak. Each templates (login, forbidden) inherit from it.
- Create the login.mak and/or forbidden.mak templates in the folder templates/auth to overwrite the default ones.
