Hi Wasfi, Use gaesessions. I am using this library and its very lightweight and robust. and can be used with webApps framework.
it can be configured to use cookies, memcache and the datastore. read the advantages here : https://github.com/dound/gae-sessions and then follow the directions to install it, Installation is very simple and requires < a minute to get started . After that when the user logs in, you can store the users id or key in the session session['uid'] = value and in the subsequent classes or main handler you can check if the session['uid'] has a value. if not then the user is not logged in, and you redirect her to the login page. hope this helps :) Warm Regards Sarfaraz Farooqui -- Strong and bitter words indicate a weak cause On Sun, Dec 19, 2010 at 6:57 PM, Mohamed Wasfi <[email protected]>wrote: > I am developing an app where I don't want to force the users to use > google authentication or openID but just sign in with their basic e- > mail addresses.
