Hi,
Am trying to write a customized authentication model.
In authenticate function I do the following.
def authenticate(self, username=None, password=None):
try:
# Check if this user is valid on the mail server
s.auth = HttpNtlmAuth(username, password, s)
except:
return None
try:
# Check if the user exists in Django's local database
user = User.objects.get(email=username)
except User.DoesNotExist:
# Create a user in Django's local database
user = User.objects.create_user(time.time(), username,
'passworddoesntmatter')
return user
When does this user object get deleted eventually ?
Once the user is authenticated am going to associate it with session.
Will this authenticate function get called again and again if multiple
requests are made in the same session ?
I want to take the logoff functionality out of the client so i will be
setting expiry in the session.
When the session expires i.e expiry time is 0 or less, i will again
authenticate the user and reset expiry time.
That way session remains intact. Is there a better approach to this ?
When clearsession is called session object will get deleted from DB, will
it also trigger deletion of User object ?
