The following module was proposed for inclusion in the Module List:
modid: Class::User::DBI
DSLIP: SdpOp
description: Manage user credentials and roles
userid: DAVIDO (David J. Oswald)
chapterid: 14 (Security_and_Encryption)
communities:
PerlMonks CB. Also uploaded to GitHub
similar:
Authen::Passphrase
rationale:
There are many user credentials modules on CPAN, but they seem to
deal mostly with OS logins. This module aims to provide a general
solution that is well suited to web applications. The user object is
stored in a database using a DBIx::Connector. Passphrase hashing and
validation is provided by Authen::Passphrase::SaltedSHA512. There
are also facilities for IP whitelisting per user, and user roles
that can be used for authorizations.
The namespace was chosen to reflect that this is a class that
encapsulates a 'user' entity, and that the object is
database-oriented. The naming was discussed with several individuals
at PerlMonks (Corion, and others).
