Hi
I'm using CGI::Application::Plugin::Authentication in my web application and
have found it useful but I'm stuck on a good way to implement some
functionality I need.
After a user has submitted their registration details I need to Authenticate
them straight away. The registration form contains a number of fields
including their chosen username and password which is submitted to a
CGI::App runmode where the data is validated and inserted into the
database.
The problem is that CGI::Application::Plugin::Authentication::initialize has
already been executed by the time this occurs.
Any ideas on how I could do this? I'm currently redirecting after processing
the registration data with the credentials in the query string - but I'm
not terribly comfortable with this solution...
One idea I had for an enhancement to the plugin was to add a reinitialize
method which didn't check $self->{initialized} before checking the
credentials. If the credentials were valid the user would be logged in from
this point. I haven't checked through the code in detail to understand the
implications of this yet... does it sound like a good idea?
cheers, Simon
