Summary: Review Request: python-repoze-what - Authorization for WSGI applications https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=476789 Summary: Review Request: python-repoze-what - Authorization for WSGI applications Product: Fedora Version: rawhide Platform: All OS/Version: Linux Status: NEW Severity: medium Priority: medium Component: Package Review AssignedTo: nobody@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx ReportedBy: lmacken@xxxxxxxxxx QAContact: extras-qa@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx CC: notting@xxxxxxxxxx, fedora-package-review@xxxxxxxxxx Estimated Hours: 0.0 Classification: Fedora Spec URL: http://lmacken.fedorapeople.org/rpms/python-repoze-what.spec SRPM URL: http://lmacken.fedorapeople.org/rpms/python-repoze-what-1.0-0.1.rc1.r2803.fc10.src.rpm Description: `repoze.what` is an `authorization framework` for WSGI applications, based on `repoze.who` (which deals with `authentication`). On the one hand, it enables an authorization system based on the groups to which the `authenticated or anonymous` user belongs and the permissions granted to such groups by loading these groups and permissions into the request on the way in to the downstream WSGI application. And on the other hand, it enables you to manage your groups and permissions from the application itself or another program, under a backend-independent API. For example, it would be easy for you to switch from one back-end to another, and even use this framework to migrate the data. It's highly extensible, so it's very unlikely that it will get in your way. Among other things, you can extend it to check for many other conditions (such as checking that the user comes from a given country, based on her IP address, for example). -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug. _______________________________________________ Fedora-package-review mailing list Fedora-package-review@xxxxxxxxxx http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-package-review
