Re: [Zope] LoginManager - how does it work?
Thanks for the help! Still looking for that HOWTO.txt
So, now I have a UserSource Installed into my LoginManager. It is called
"pgcrypt" and is supposed to authenticate to a SQL database. The password
stored in the DB is encryputed using the same scheme. Any ideas why it
doesn't let me in? Is there any way to troubleshoot this? It seems like
there should be a way to tell if it's going to work or not form the
management interface.
Here's what I added to UserSources.py:
class PGCryptUserSource(BasicUserSource):
""" A sql based encrypted user source """
meta_type="PG Crypt User Source"
__plugin_kind__="User Source"
def retrieveItem(self, name):
self.getcustbyusername(username=name)
def rolesForUser(self, user):
name = user.getUserName()
res = self.getcustbyusername(username=name)
fields2index={}
fieldnames=res._schema.items()
for i in range(len(fieldnames)):
fields2index[fieldnames[i][0]]=fieldnames[i][1]
roles=res[0][fields2index['roles']]
return roles
def domainsForUser(self, user):
name = user.getUserName()
res = self.getcustbyusername(username=name)
fields2index={}
fieldnames=res._schema.items()
for i in range(len(fieldnames)):
fields2index[fieldnames[i][0]]=fieldnames[i][1]
domains=res[0][fields2index['domains']]
return domains
def authenticateUser(self, user, password, request):
name = user.getUserName()
res = self.getcustbyusername(username=name)
fields2index={}
fieldnames=res._schema.items()
for i in range(len(fieldnames)):
fields2index[fieldnames[i][0]]=fieldnames[i][1]
passwd=res[0][fields2index['password']]
if crypt.crypt(password,'ab')==passwd:
return 1
else:
return 0
+
context.registerPlugInClass(
PGCryptUserSource,
permission = 'Add PGCrypt UserSource',
constructors = defaultConstructors(PGCryptUserSource,globals()),
)

I was confused too :) Now I have working instalation of LoginManager-0-8-7a1. It retrieves users' data from ZODB, but it may be helpfull to understand how to implement any other source, i.e. MySQL. Probably I did it very dirty way, but it works ;) First, I created my own UserSource class, adding it to source file lib/python/Products/LoginManager/UserSources.py. Here comes the diff: 7c7 from Products.ZPatterns.PlugIns import defaultConstructors --- from Products.ZPatterns.PlugIns import defaultConstructors, PlugIn 478a479,496 class OloloUserSource(BasicUserSource): """Moje wasne rdo uytkownikw""" meta_type = "Ololo User Source" __plugin_kind__ = "User Source" def retrieveItem(self,name): Uzytkownicy=getattr(self.aq_parent, 'Uzytkownicy', None) return getattr(Uzytkownicy, name, None) 489a508,514 ) context.registerPlugInClass( OloloUserSource, permission = 'Add Ololo User Source', constructors = defaultConstructors(OloloUserSource, globals()), Method retrieveItem have to return user object with given name. I have users inside folder Uzytkownicy beside acl_users. Next thing to do is to create class representing users. It must have LoginManager:LoginUser as a base class. So I made such ZClass. This class has methods authenticateUser, domainsForUser, rolesForUser, which do real work. (Users in folder Uzytkownicy are instances of that ZClass.) This class contains some properties of user - login (it's just object's id), name, other data. (Currently I store passwords externally, because I need them to do POP3 authentication.) Then, on management tab "User Sources" of your LoginManager instance, add instance of your UserSource class. Check also for proper settings on LoginMethods tab.

[Zope] LoginManager - how does it work?
I've managed to get loginManager to install, but I am very confused as to what to do with it. I've read the how-tos on zope.org, and the documentation of LoginManager itself... But I still don't understand what is supposed to happen. A User Source is a location to find users, Say, my SQL database, right? How do I tell it to use the SQL methods I have for retrieveing passwords? The how-tos say to create dtml-methods called "userAuthenticate" "userExists" and "userRoles". Where do these go? Can anyone help me see the light on this? Thank you
