============= FASWho Plugin ============= :Authors: Luke Macken Toshio Kuratomi :Date: 3 September 2011 This plugin provides authentication to the Fedora Account System using the `repoze.who` WSGI middleware. It is designed for use with :term:`TurboGears2` but it may be used with any `repoze.who` using application. Like :ref:`jsonfas2`, faswho has builtin :term:`CSRF` protection. This protection is implemented as a second piece of middleware and may be used with other `repoze.who` authentication schemes. ------------------------------------------- Authenticating against FAS with TurboGears2 ------------------------------------------- Setting up authentication against FAS in :term:`TurboGears2` is very easy. It requires one change to be made to :file:`app/config/app_cfg.py`. This change will take care of registering faswho as the authentication provider, enabling :term:`CSRF` protection, switching :func:`tg.url` to use :func:`fedora.ta2g.utils.url` instead, and allowing the `_csrf_token` parameter to be given to any URL. .. autofunction:: fedora.tg2.utils.add_fas_auth_middleware .. autofunction:: fedora.wsgi.faswho.faswhoplugin.make_faswho_middleware --------------------------------------------- Using CSRF middleware with other Auth Methods --------------------------------------------- This section needs to be made clearer so that apps like mirrormanager can be ported to use this. .. automodule:: fedora.wsgi.csrf .. autoclass:: fedora.wsgi.csrf.CSRFProtectionMiddleware .. autoclass:: fedora.wsgi.csrf.CSRFMetadataProvider --------- Templates --------- The :mod:`fedora.tg2.utils` module contains some templates to help you write :term:`CSRF` aware login forms and buttons. You can use the :func:`~fedora.tg2.utils.fedora_template` function to integrate them into your templates: .. autofunction:: fedora.tg2.utils.fedora_template The templates themselves come in two flavors. One set for use with mako and one set for use with genshi. Mako ==== .. automodule:: fedora.tg2.templates.mako Genshi ====== .. automodule:: fedora.tg2.templates.genshi
