[Grok-dev] grok 1.2 and session based auth.

[Jeffrey D Peterson]

There is a bug, it's been documented.  

 

You need to include zope.pluggableauth in your setup.py in install_requires
and rerun buildout.  This will work around the bug.

 

Hopefully that's the issue, otherwise, we'll have to look closer.

hi, grokkers,

 

My problem:

I can not use PluggableAuthenticationPlugin from zope.pluggableauth to do a
session based auth.

 

Steps I took:

1. added the following lines to my gork.Application:

 

    grok.local_utility(auth.UserAuthenticatorPlugin,

                       provides=IAuthenticatorPlugin,

                       name='users')

    grok.local_utility(PluggableAuthentication,provides=IAuthentication,

                       setup=auth.setup_authentication,

                       )

 

2. created corresponding authenticatorPlugin and credentialsPlugin, and add
them to pau through setup_authentication.

 

Results:

The authentication utility is not called at all. only princialRegistry(from
zope.principalregistry which is a globalsite utility that implements
IAuthentication.) works.

 

Expected:

The local authentication utility should work and substitute the global one.

 

How can I fix the above problem??
