The login mechanism is web application form based submission, done in flex,
which is embedded in a django page, which is served by mod_wsgi.
That is, I have a flex UI submitting username, raw_password through an AMF
gateway.
== myflex.mxml ==
private function handleLogin(username,raw_password):void
{
gatewayUrl = "https://www.mysite.com/main/gateway";;
var serviceName:String = "authService";
var serviceFactory:ServiceFactory = ServiceFactory.getInstance
(gatewayUrl);
var service:RemotingService = serviceFactory.getService(serviceName);
var pc:PendingCall = service.authenticateVisitor(your_login,
raw_password); // ties to django views.py method
}
== views.py ==
def authenticateVisitor(request, this_email, raw_password):
if request.user.is_authenticated() == True
return "Already authenticated" # <--- This return statement is never
reached, even if this method is called twice
this_user = auth.authenticate(email=this_email,password=raw_password) #
using custom EmailBackend
if this_user is not None:
auth.login(request,this_user)
return True
else:
return False
