djangowebauth 0.1.2

django-webauth
Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA, 2FA) for Django using the
Web Authentication API.

Security Disclaimer
This alpha stage software is not production ready and requires further
hardening before it can be safely deployed into the wild.
Quick Start


Install django-webauth using pip
$ pip install django-webauth



Add webauth to INSTALLED_APPS
# settings.py
INSTALLED_APPS = [
...
"webauth",
]



Add django-webauth URLs
# urls.py
urlpatterns = [
...
path("webauth/", include("webauth.urls")),
]



Add Web Authentication protection to your views. How you do this depends on
whether you're protecting function views or class based views:


To protect view functions:
Add the @webauth_required decorator to disallow users that have not
authenticated with webauth.
# views.py
from webauth.decorators import webauth_required

@webauth_required
def private_view(request):
...



To protect class based views:
Add WebAuthRequiredMixin to the inheritance list on your view classes.
# views.py
from webauth.mixins import WebAuthRequiredMixin

class YourClassBasedView(WebAuthRequiredMixin, View):
...





Set some required django-webauth settings
# settings.py
WEBAUTH_RP_ID = "localhost"
WEBAUTH_RP_NAME = "Example Site"
WEBAUTH_ORIGIN = "http://localhost:8000"
WEBAUTH_VERIFY_URL = "/webauth/verify/"



Run migrations to create the table for storing authenticator data
$ python manage.py migrate



Run your Django app and register a new security key at
http://localhost:8000/webauth/register/


Navigate to a view you protected in step 4. django-webauth will redirect
you to a page that will attempt to authenticate using your newly created key.
If successful, you will be redirected to the protected view.


Customizing the built-in templates
django-webauth includes templates out of the box to get you up and running.
The templates extend webauth/base.html, which you will likely want to replace
with your own base template.
Replace the built-in base template simply by creating a new webauth/base.html
in your app's templates folder. See How to override templates
from the Django documentation for more info.
You are also welcome, and encouraged, to replace the other included templates
with your own using the same method.
Configuration settings
WEBAUTH_RP_ID: the hostname (minus scheme and port) of the server
running your Django app
WEBAUTH_RP_NAME: human readable name of your server intended only
for display
WEBAUTH_ORIGIN: used for verifying assertions. Only authentication
ceremonies occurring in this origin will validate
WEBAUTH_VERIFY_URL: Users not authenticated with django-webauth will
redirect users here when they request a protected view. This "login" page
completes the multi-factor authentication flow.
