Is there any simple user authorization mechanism for installed app in google app engine?
Background: There is some functionality in my GAE app that only some group of user should have access to (for example, app admins). Utility to work with functionality implemented as python client application (runned on local pc, not in browser). I've tried to use Users service, but users.get_current_user() returns None. AFAICS, it happens cause user login information stored as cookie in browser and admin utility communicates with GAE app using it's own httplib2 http object. And there is no information about user login in it. Also I've tried to use oauth2, but Decorator implementation depends on users.get_current_user() and result is the same. Seems that, "login: admin" field in app.yaml depends on Users service too. Maybe there is some simple way to login user from client app without browser? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google App Engine" group.
