repoze.who.cas 0.2

Introduction

repoze.who.cas is a repoze.who plugin that allows the use of a CAS server as an authentication provider. It allows you to specify a CAS server against which your users can authenticate. Once they authenticate against the CAS server, they’ll be redirected to your application in such a way that their identity will be injected into the WSGI environment with a key that you can specify.

Example who.ini

As follows:

[plugin:cas]
use = repoze.who.plugins.cas:make_plugin
cookie_name = someapp-cas
secret = ahardtoguessthing
cas_login_url = https://cas.example.com/login
cas_validate_url = https://cas.example.com/validate
