Hi, I'm struggling a bit to get rid of the friendly form identifier and challenger, and do my own Authenticator in a turbogears 2.1 project.
I've got a 'faceless' web services server that won't even have a login form, since no human will ever visit the site. So I want to retain the session cookie mechanism, and the sa_auth module that uses the default Group, User, and Permission model in SQL Alchemy. I just am going to do my own Authentication, and get rid of the Challenger. So far I've implemented an IAuthenticator class ShaAuthenticator(IAuthenticator): #implements(IAuthenticator) def authenticate(self, environment, identity): if not 'user_email' in identity: return None ... and in app_cfg.py hash_auth = ShaAuthenticator base_config.sa_auth.authenticators = [('hash_auth', hash_auth)] # got rid of the challenger base_config.sa_auth.form_plugin = None #and am keeping base_config.auth_backend = 'sqlalchemy' base_config.sa_auth.dbsession = model.DBSession If I try to run at the moment I see: ValueError: hash_auth: An object has failed to implement interface <InterfaceClass repoze.who.interfaces.IAuthenticator> The authenticate attribute was not provided. I didn't find much help on the turbogears google group, I'm hoping someone might be able to point me in the right direction here.
