Hi Ashley,

Sorry for the delay, It sounds quite interesting.  Are you working off
of the auth module in svn at the moment, or the released version.  I
ask because there are changes in svn that might make it easier to
implement.  I'm in the process of documenting those changes for a
release soon.  Namely, the realm has much more control (more hook
points) in the auth process - might be useful.

Anyway - let me know if I can help in any way.

Working from the CPAN version.

http://search.cpan.org/dist/Catalyst-Authentication-Credential-OpenID/
(Ignore the extra "Documentation" link, I left a trash copy of the
file in there and need to get it out; I'll try tonight when I've got
time; I notice another mistake -- I left the store class in the
sample config but it doesn't exist yet.)

I'd love to see your new stuff. I'll take a look later. I am
already basically using the realm for everything. Don't know
what the new looks like but the old was pretty easy to follow
and I was grateful for the internals info you put in the POD.

The only current real configuration option, for example, is that
you can set your own user agent and pass it arguments. From the POD-

 Plugin::Authentication:
   default_realm: members
   realms:
     openid:
       credential:
         class: OpenID
       ua_class: LWPx::ParanoidAgent
       ua_args:
         whitelisted_hosts:
           - 127.0.0.1
           - localhost

Hello everybody! [Well, mostly JayK and Tatsuhiko Miyagawa].

I think I have a working modernized (to the current bleeding edge
of the
Auth system) OpenID Credential package:
Catalyst::Authentication::Credential::OpenID. Before I work on
docs and
trying to making it tested and bomb-proof I want to check with all
y'all.

It's based on the second generation
Catalyst::Plugin::Authentication::Credential::OpenID from
Tatsuhiko Miyagawa
and all the new stuff from Jay Kuri.

So instead of
 $c->authenticate_openid()
you have realm based auth
 $c->authenticate({ openid_identifier => $claimed_uri }, "openid")

This sounds like the right direction to me. I'm eager to see the new
work, as well.  Do you have a dev package available?

Great. I worked on it a bunch today and got a working test app with
it running a provider and a consumer along with some plain text
inline Auth so it can test itself. I managed to use some of JRock's
test stuff + some of JK's to write a live test that I *think* is
okay. It's difficult to know because the test server has to run with
forking so it can answer its own requests but it's passing in my env
on OS X at least. It's minimal but there is a working OpenID server
example in the t/TestApp code.

I'm trying to do some reasonable POD right now and I was hoping to
get a slightly messy 0.01 on the CPAN tonight (missing the OpenID
store class which I'd really like to have but that's another day+ to
write and test which might push it off a week or more). I have my
own svn server but since it's just me, it's messy with poor revision
messages and I check in broken stuff so I can get it between my
machines... that said, if you can't wait or I'm too slow: http:// dev.perlperl.com/cpan/trunk/CA-OpenID/
 (that should be open for checkouts; I just flipped it to public).

Also, if you need proper commit bits to the main Catalyst repos
please let me know
and I'll get that sorted out for you.

I would love that. If nothing else, I'd be glad to tackle typo/small-
fish bugs and help update some of the document drift in
authentication stuff.

I'm getting ready to start working on another OpenID consumer
application, and would like to use your work.


I hope you do and please if any room for improvement jumps out at
you, don't be shy. I worked a bunch with OpenID last year on a
contract but I'm no guru with it.

-Ashley
