Hi guys,
My coworker is migrating a delphi application into a TG's app. One of
the main requests is that everytime the user hits an important screen
(aka controller/method), he(she) must enter his(her) username &
password.
Let me give an example to clarify this scenario:
1) I try to hit the "/" url.. since the entire system demands
non_anonymous navigantion, I must provide my identification.. and the
current identity becomes "Roger Demetrescu"
2) Then I hit a "/sales/list/' url.. and the system should ask again
for the user & password... maybe I enter "RogerDemetrescu / 123", and
continue to be the current identity... maybe I enter "Alberto_Valverde
/ 987" and then he will be the new user... until he hits another url
which will ask again for authentication...
What's the best way to accomplish this behavior ?
I'm studying the turbogears\identity\ package... But I'm not yet sure
how to make it work the way I need.
These are some of the ideas/doubts that I've been thinking:
a) the identity sources which are available in IdentityVisitPlugin
should be expanded, so I could analyze the request params and
determine the needing of an authentication. But I don't see any hook
to do that:
# from turbogears/identity/visitor.py
# Register the plugin for the Visit Tracking framework
visit.enable_visit_plugin( IdentityVisitPlugin() )
As you can see, there is no way I can register my own
CustomIdentityVisitPlugin instead of the original
IdentityVisitPlugin...
b) If I do:
visit.enable_visit_plugin(CustomIdentifyVisitPlugin())
how would it behave running at the same time of the original
IdentityVisitPlugin ?
Any suggestion will be very appreciated ... :)
Thanks
Roger

identify on the fly...
