Comment (by anonymous):
I wrote a little PythonAccessHandler tightly based on the authhandler
mentioned. I don't think you can use the PythonAuthHandler, because that
needs all the authentication stuff from apache and I haven't found a way
to surpress the prompt.
There is a lot of overhead in the current implementation, as all request
middleware components are applied, but only session and authentication
middleware would be needed.
I use this apache configuration for the access control:
{{{
<Location "/images/full">
SetHandler python-program
PythonPath "['/path/to/proj/'] + sys.path"
PythonOption DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE myproj.settings
PythonDebug On
PythonOption DjangoPermissionName '<permission.codename>'
PythonAccessHandler my_proj.modpython
</Location>
}}}
