Hey there, I'm currently trying to integrate an APE server into our web application. We want to use it for checking the online status of a user (instead of just doing ajax requests all the time), and if that works it will be used for more complicated stuff :)
For developing, I have set up the APE server and it is running in background. In the Browser I can connect to it using the hello world example with loading the core and performing the start call. I wrote a simple test server side module that attaches to some events like adduser, mkchan and so on, and I use Ape.log to see that it really works. Cool Stuff so far. But now comes the part where I need some advice: When a user wants to connect to APE (which I see in the adduser event) I want to know whether this user is allowed to do so. The permission comes from our web server: If the user is logged in, he is allowed to connect to APE because otherwise we don't need any information from him. So in the adduser event I have to do something like a request to my webserver, wait for an answer, evaluate that answer and if it's ok then he will be added. How can I achieve this? Some additional questions: - can I do something within adduser to don't let him connect to APE? - is there any best practice to identify the user? And I mean a way that is not so easy to fake (e.g., the username might be easy to fake, I thought of the session id or sth similar). I hope I can find someone helping me with this :) Thanks in advance! -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "APE Project" group.
