Hello all
I am new to catalyst and after toying around with the examples in
Catalyst::Tutorial i started my own project with this framework. But the
first step, trying authentication against an LDAP server, already gave me
headaches.
The tutorial uses this configuration:
__PACKAGE__->config(
'Plugin::Authentication' => {
default => {
class => 'SimpleDB',
user_model => 'DB::User',
password_type => 'self_check',
},
},
);
which (as i do understand) uses a registered datamodel. OTOH the manpages for
other authentication Methods such as "Catalyst::Authentication::Store::LDAP"
are using a configuration splitting things up into credetial-verification
and storage-config if i am getting this right. There is nowhere an remark
about having this datastore somehow registered as model. FE:
__PACKAGE__->config(
'authentication' => {
default_realm => "ldap",
realms => {
ldap => {
credential => {
class => "Password",
etc etc ...
},
store => {
class => "LDAP",
binddn => "a=DN, b=to, c=bind, d=with",
bindpw => "supersecret!",
etc etc ...
}}}});
But using this in MyApp just gives me the error "Could not find
authentication realm 'default'". Of course i tried renaming the realm to
"default" :)
Even using the "Minimal" authentication example:
__PACKAGE__->config(
'Plugin::Authentication' => {
default => {
credentials => {
class => 'Password',
password_field => 'password',
password_type => 'clear'
},
store => {
class => 'Minimal',
users => {
test1 => {
password => 'test1',
roles => [qw/edit delete/],
},
test2 => {
password => 'test2',
roles => [qw/edit/],
},},},},},);
just emits the same error with the MyApp example from the tutorial.
And indeed i can only find "Compatibility" "Progressive" and "SimpleDB" as
realms under Catalyst::Authentication::Realms. No "Password" or other types
of realms.
The "use Catalyst qw//" in MyApp.pm looks like this:
use Catalyst qw/
-Debug
ConfigLoader
Static::Simple
Authentication
Authentication::Store::Minimal
Session
Session::Store::File
Session::State::Cookie
StatusMessage
/;
Other config-statements in MyApp.pm (from the tutorial) are untouched.
So how are the examples under Catalyst::Authentication::Store::LDAP and
C::A::S::Minimal supposed to work? Apparently this concept with mapping the
realm-identifier under C::A::Realms is not used in this type of config with
"credentials" and "store".
As i am new to Catalyst, i need to know which other Information you would need.
My installation is fresh via CPAN as of 06.2013.
