Felix Meschberger commented on SLING-1116:
------------------------------------------
Thanks again for providing the patch.
I have taken the liberty to simplify it a bit:
* replaced classes by direct method calls
* refactored the login page call using a dedicated, configurable login form
page instead of using selectors
* merged some configuration properties
* aligned the form action to the Servlet API 2.4 specification in SRV.12.5.3.1
* Placed the token store inside the bundle private data (if the path is
relative)
I have commited it in Rev. 907677 and cleaned up the dependencies in Rev. 907686
In addition I added documentation of this handler at
http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/sling/trunk/bundles/extensions/formauth
(support for the j_verify parameter as documented is not implemented yet)
Please review. Thanks.

> This is a new bundle that provides an implementation of forms based
> authentication for sling.
> The login/logout servlets from the org.apache.sling.commons.auth are used.
> The AuthenticationHandler will use http basic auth credentials if they are on
> the request, otherwise it will use the user/pwd posted from the login form.
> The login form html is generated by a set of scripts
> 1. login.html.esp - full login page (includes login_body.html.esp for the
> form markup)
> 2. login_body.html.esp - just the login form, which may be useful for
> drawing the login form for an ajax context
> 3. loginError.html.esp - full login-error page
> 4. loginError_body.html.esp - just the login-error form, for login error in
> ajax context
> The above scripts are included as bundle-resources @
> /libs/sling/servlet/default
> The bundle also has a couple of test scripts to show some examples of usage:
> 1. loginTest.html.esp - shows who is logged in and links to login or logout
> 2. loginTest2.html.esp - shows how a script can check permissions and show a
> login page if the anonymous user doesn't have permission to see the page,
> Some examples of usage are:
> 1. http://host:port/path/to/node.login.html - show the login page and then
> goto http://host:port/path/to/node after authenticated
> 2. http://host:port/path/to/node.login.html?s=.edit.html - show the login
> page and then goto http://host:port/path/to/node.edit.html after
> authenticated
> 3. http://host:port/system/sling/logout - invalidate the session and switch
> back to anonymous user
