for one set of users I'll have been given an email address and password
and for the other set I'll have a LinkedIn user key

2010-10-15 Thread Carl
good question!

if the account is authenticated using linkedin then I want to set-up the
account a specific way.

if the account is registered/logged-in the 'usual way' then I want to set-up
the account in a specific but different way.

I take your point with respect to "trust". I've missed a night's sleep so
will think on that some more. But now I need to go out :)

Re: [web2py] Re: Is user in [app]/[controller.py]/user hard-coded into Web2py?

2010-10-15 Thread Carl
thanks for the pointer Radomirs.
the slice has the registering step disabled

rpxAuth.rpx_disabled = ['register','retrieve_password',
 'reset_password','change_password','profile']


but doesn't say how to skip registering by the user *and* still perform some
register actions in the code. The above snippet prevents the user from
registering. But how to have one's code, for example, set some permissions
or set-up the account is some other way.

Re: [web2py] Re: Is user in [app]/[controller.py]/user hard-coded into Web2py?

2010-10-15 Thread Carl
temporarily I've renamed def agent() back to def user()

the only problem I'm left with is how to get my one-off registration code to
be called.

for users registering by a registration form all is well.
For them I've set: auth.settings.register_onaccept = lambda form:
registerCandidate(form)

But for users via LinkedIn... no registeration step is called;
and auth.settings.login_onaccept = lambda form: registerAgent(form) is
ignored too.

One solution is to change:
auth.settings.login_next = URL(r=request,f='account')
to: auth.settings.login_next = URL(r=request,f='oneoffregistration') which
can do the one of stuff and then redirect to 'account'

But I feel there must be a way that leverages the framework more elegantly.
Is there? :)

Re: [web2py] Re: Is user in [app]/[controller.py]/user hard-coded into Web2py?

2010-10-15 Thread Carl
One small problem I'm coming across...

I'm using OAuth to login via LinkedIn for a subset of my users.

In gluon/tools.py line 1471 the statement hard-codes 'user' (web2py 1.87.3)
next = self.url('user',args='login',vars=dict(_next=next))

Is there something I should have done to avoid this route through the code?
I'm currently using it to pass a "return url" to LinkedIn and I'd like a
different url besides /user/

 While Candidates have to "formally" register first and then login agents

 be "automatically" registered (I need to add some permissions and do other

Re: [web2py] Re: Is user in [app]/[controller.py]/user hard-coded into Web2py?

2010-10-15 Thread Carl Roach
I've got authentication working with LinkedIn. But no registration step 
happens... I would like to add a set of permissions the first time a new user 
logins in via LinkedIn.

For a second type of user I offer a registration page to get email/password and 
then add a different set of permissions.

So the piece I'm missing is: how do I fire off a registration step for my 
"LinkedIn" users?

2010-10-15 Thread Carl
thanks M.

adding to def candidate()
auth.auth_user = 'candidate'
has that side sorted.

for my function agent() the process is a little more complicated.
While Candidates have to "formally" register first and then login agents can
be "automatically" registered (I need to add some permissions and do other
one-off stuff) when they come back from LinkedIn.

The problem is that registration doesn't take place at all and I can't
figure out how to get this one-off registration phase called. can you point
me in the right direction?

I'm glad I don't need two user tables. I ideally would want to stick to a
single table.

thanks M.

Do I understand that your solution is to have two separate user tables in
db.py?
