=====Custom Remote User=====Custom Remote User is a Django app that extends remote user authenticationenabling custom common behavior. The app currently offers only a case-insensitivebackend `CaseInsensitiveRemoteUserBackend`.`CaseInsensitiveRemoteUserBackend` guarantees that all users created using an external authentication service are created with an all-lower case username.This is important because some external authentication services return a case-sensitive username upon login. This is problematic with Django as the built-inuser model is case-sensitive. This means a single remote user may have two differentrecords in that database (e.g. 'Username' is different than 'username').Quick start-----------1. Add "custom_remote_user" to your INSTALLED_APPS setting like this:: INSTALLED_APPS = [ ... 'custom_remote_user', ]2. Add CaseInsensitiveRemoteUserBackend:: AUTHENTICATION_BACKENDS = [ 'custom_remote_user.backends.CaseInsensitiveRemoteUserBackend', ]3. Add the required middlewares for remote user authentication:: MIDDLEWARE = [ ... 'django.contrib.auth.middleware.AuthenticationMiddleware', 'django.contrib.auth.middleware.RemoteUserMiddleware', ... ]
