Description:
dbcautils 2.0.2
Overview
DBCA Django utility classes and functions.
SSO Login Middleware
This will automatically login and create users using headers from an upstream proxy (REMOTE_USER and some others).
The logout view will redirect to a separate logout page which clears the SSO session.
Usage
Add dbca_utils.middleware.SSOLoginMiddleware to settings.MIDDLEWARE (after both of
django.contrib.sessions.middleware.SessionMiddleware and
django.contrib.auth.middleware.AuthenticationMiddleware.
Ensure that AUTHENTICATION_BACKENDS contains django.contrib.auth.backends.ModelBackend,
as this middleware depends on it for retrieving the logged in user for a session.
Note that the middleware will still work without it, but will reauthenticate the session
on every request, and request.user.is_authenticated won't work properly/will be false.
Example:
MIDDLEWARE = [
...,
'django.contrib.sessions.middleware.SessionMiddleware',
'django.contrib.auth.middleware.AuthenticationMiddleware',
'dbca_utils.middleware.SSOLoginMiddleware'
...,
]
Audit model mixin
AuditMixin is an extension of Django.db.model.Model that adds a number of additional fields:
creator - FK to AUTH_USER_MODEL, used to record the object creator
modifier - FK to AUTH_USER_MODEL, used to record who the object was last modified by
created - a timestamp that is set on initial object save
modified - an auto-updating timestamp (on each object save)
