|

=============
|
=============
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Flask-DigestAuth takes the configuration ``DIGEST_AUTH_REALM`` as the

|
||||||
realm. The default realm is ``Login Required``.

Setting the Password
|
Change Log
|
||||||
====================
|
==========
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
The password hash of the HTTP Digest Authentication is composed of the
|

|
||||||
realm, the username, and the password. Example for setting the
|
|
||||||
password:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
::
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
from flask_digest_auth import make_password_hash
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
user.password = make_password_hash(realm, username, password)
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
The username is part of the hash. If the user changes their username,
|
|
||||||
you need to ask their password, to generate and store the new password
|
|
||||||
hash.

||||||
Flask-DigestAuth Alone
|
|
||||||
======================
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Flask-DigestAuth can authenticate the users alone.

Flask-Login Integration
|
|
||||||
=======================
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Flask-DigestAuth works with Flask-Login_. You can write a Flask
|
|
||||||
module that requires log in, without specifying how to log in. The
|
|
||||||
application can use either HTTP Digest Authentication, or the log in
|
|
||||||
forms, as needed.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
To use Flask-Login with Flask-DigestAuth,
|
|
||||||
``login_manager.init_app(app)`` must be called before
|
|
||||||
``auth.init_app(app)``.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
The currently logged-in user can be retrieved at
|
|
||||||
``flask_login.current_user``, if any.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
The views only depend on Flask-Login, but not the Flask-DigestAuth.
|
|
||||||
You can change the actual authentication mechanism without changing
|
|
||||||
the views.

|
|

|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Session Integration
|
|
||||||
===================
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Flask-DigestAuth features session integration. The user log in
|
|
||||||
is remembered in the session. The authentication information is not
|
|
||||||
requested again. This is different to the practice of the HTTP Digest
|
|
||||||
Authentication, but is convenient for the log in accounting.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Log In Bookkeeping
|
|
||||||
==================
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
You can register a callback to run when the user logs in, for ex.,
|
|
||||||
logging the log in event, adding the log in counter, etc.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
::
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
@auth.register_on_login
|
|
||||||
def on_login(user: User) -> None:
|
|
||||||
user.visits = user.visits + 1
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Log Out
|
|
||||||
=======
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Flask-DigestAuth supports log out. The user will be prompted for the
|
|
||||||
new username and password.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Test Client
|
|
||||||
===========
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Flask-DigestAuth comes with a test client that supports HTTP digest
|
|
||||||
authentication.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||

|
||||||
