I have found an example that needs specialized (non authenticators)
sessions.
Several e-commerce sites allow costumers to put items into a basket even
if they are not authenticated.
No. This case is no different from any other. Cred does not make
anonymous users a special case: it deals with them in the same way
it deals with all other users.
Guard is entirely capable of providing a shopping cart to unauthenticated
users.
This is not the point.
The point is in having sessions that are not used for authentication.
I have just finished to write a version of guard that *do not* use
sessions for anonymous users.
This means that for dealing for an e-commerce application I have to
create a specialized session.
Hopefully I would like to do:
def BasketSession(Session):
def __init__(self, ...):
Session.__init__(self, ...)
self.basket = []
Feel free to do this, but it's not the recommended way to address this
use case in twisted.web or Nevow. The version of guard which is included
in releases of either won't work this way, nor will the documentation
recommend this approach.
