Hello. In the pyramid.authentication.SessionAuthenticationPolicy (or AuthTktAuthenticationPolicy) class description there is constructor argument ``callback``. One of ``callback`` arguments is `userid`.
What exactly `userid` is? As I've found from the sources, it's a value that passed to pyramid.security.remember, but in that method argument is named "principal". Moreover, I can pass to pyramid.security.remember not string but object (sqlalchemy model for example) and everything is working just fine (stored in the session). So maybe developers should rename "userid" to "principal"? And another question. What's the recommended way to store sqlalchemy model instance in the session that represents current user? I don't want to query database every HTTP request to obtain "user" object by it's uid stored as ``principal`` value. -- Sergei Stolyarov -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "pylons-discuss" group.
