Hello, The repoze.who.plugins.auth_tkt plugin accepts an optional userid_checker argument, which is parsed by repoze.who.utils.resolveDotted, thus it is expected to be a module global. I propose to extend the auth_tkt plugin to also look in environ['repoze.who.plugins'] for the userid_checker.
This way, other plugins will have the possibility to register userid_checkers automatically (i.e. from the who.ini file using a [plugin:userid_checker] directive), thus the userid_checker configuration could be separated from the application code and configured from who.ini. Of course, it would not break backwards compatibility, as auth_tkt would still first try to use resolveDotted. Here's my idea: repoze/who/plugins/auth_tkt.py 62,68c62,63 < if self.userid_checker is not None: < if self.userid_checker in environ['repoze.who.plugins']: < checker = environ['repoze.who.plugins'][self.userid_checker] < if not checker(userid): < return None < else: < return None --- > if self.userid_checker and not self.userid_checker(userid): > return None 212,215c207 < try: < userid_checker = resolveDotted(userid_checker) < except ImportError: < pass --- > userid_checker = resolveDotted(userid_checker) Bests, Attila _______________________________________________ Repoze-dev mailing list Repoze-dev@lists.repoze.org http://lists.repoze.org/listinfo/repoze-dev
