Re: [web2py] Does auth.requires() always requires login?

[Bruno Rocha]

I think it should be, because @auth means authentication, so needs
authenticated user.

In your case I should do differently.

def secret():
   if not request.client == '127.0.0.1' or not auth.user:
       redirect(URL('default', 'user', args='login'))
   return {"": "some cool stuff"}
