Hello, I'm trying to use web2py to build a JSON based API (not REST though) for a mobile and single-page-application client.
I wonder if there is a simple way to use Web2py internals like auth and session global object for such a case? For example, in regular web-based app web2py "magically" restore a user and a session using cookies. In API environment it is not possible. Would it be possible instead to generate a token upon a login and then associate auth and session objects with that token. Then on every API function that requires login perform a decoration function to look up a token that client sends and restore auth and session objects associated with it, and later use it in the function as we would in a normal web-based app. Is there a way to do that?
