Currently I have an application (A) that redirects the user to a web2py
application (B) to log in. I want to change it so that the application A
instead calls B with a username/password and gets back dict(user:user)
where user is the result of auth.login_bare(username,password). I have
made a web2py app to mock A calling B with a Post. I have also created the
method in B to accept the data. Controllers provided below. When I make
the call, A is correctly getting the user information based on whether or
not B is able to log in the user. However, when I try to navigate around
application B's pages that are behind login, I'm told that I am not logged
in.
For a quick sanity check, I also created a controller marked C, that uses
the auth.login_bare and not a POST and it works to log me into B
Can anyone please provide insight into what I need to be doing differently
to allow A to log into B by passing username/password?
A
def test_remote_login():
form = SQLFORM(db.remote_login).process()
if form.accepted:
username = form.vars.remote_login_username
password = form.vars.remote_login_password
access_method = form.vars.access_method
import httplib, base64, urllib
params = urllib.urlencode({'username':username,
'password':password
})
base64string = base64.encodestring('%s:%s' % (username ,
password))[:-1]
username_password_combo = "Basic " + base64string
headers = {"Content-type": "application/x-www-form-urlencoded",
"Accept": "text/plain", "Authorization": username_password_combo}
conn = httplib.HTTPConnection(task_tracker_host_defined)
connection_url = '/tasktracker3/default/remote_login' +
access_method
conn.request("POST", connection_url, params, headers)
r1 = conn.getresponse()
data1 = r1.read()
conn.close()
response.flash='Accepted'
return locals()
B
@request.restful()
def remote_login():
def POST(username,password):
user = auth.login_bare(username,password)
return dict(user=user)
return locals()
C
def test_remote_login():
username = request.args(0)
password = request.args(1)
user = auth.login_bare(username,password)
return dict(user=user)
