@brondsem I didn't work too hard on it, yet. But I did some first tests, and I'd love to merge it with my modifications, which were necessary to run it on my Allura installation.
Specialties, which I needed to implement in the current access handler: * **Support for SAML.** That means, that I needed to match the username of Allura, to the User ID (in my case it was the E-Mail address) of the IDP. * **Renamed Repositories, to get them flat in one directory.** As we heavily use SVN, and Apache doesn't support recursive directories for WebDAV (as you know ;) ), I renamed the repositories, so that the name gives already the full qualified path. The neighborhood, project and repo are then separated by comma, instead of slashes. I had the idea, that the refactored access-handler can support also my requirements. I would even propose, that the new handler is a fork, so that everyone can decide if he want's to stay with mod_python or switch to WSGI. Especially because both can't coexist in one Apache instance, and there might be reasons to stay with with mod_python for someone. What do you think? Should I investigate further, or are you on it already!? --- ** [tickets:#8352] Convert ApacheAccessHandler.py from mod_python to mod_wsgi** **Status:** open **Milestone:** unreleased **Labels:** py3 **Created:** Wed Feb 26, 2020 07:54 PM UTC by Dave Brondsema **Last Updated:** Wed Feb 26, 2020 07:54 PM UTC **Owner:** nobody mod_wsgi is how we run the main app, mod_python is very old school and we shouldn't be using it. Recent versions of Ubunut look like they drop support for mod_python anyway rather than supporting it on python3: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libapache2-mod-python/+bug/1735368 Although mod_python does work with python 3, it'd just have to be built manually. --- Sent from forge-allura.apache.org because dev@allura.apache.org is subscribed to https://forge-allura.apache.org/p/allura/tickets/ To unsubscribe from further messages, a project admin can change settings at https://forge-allura.apache.org/p/allura/admin/tickets/options.
