New release about django-mama-cas HOT 11 CLOSED

Finally! I got an environment reconfigured that allowed me to publish this new version. Thanks for the patience!

waiting for release, thx!

Django 2.0 support requires recent updates which means not being able to rely on a pip requirements.txt - which is not great for production CAS deployments.

Works great though.

Hi @andredalle,

You can still install it using pip with:

pip install -e git+https://github.com/jbittel/django-mama-cas.git#egg=django-mama-cas

That will appear in your requirements.txt as:

-e git+https://github.com/jbittel/django-mama-cas.git@b820306c182879d70d2470d4882b911ab5fc01fc#egg=django_mama_cas

And of course you can remove the commit reference to always use the latest version available:

-e git+https://github.com/jbittel/django-mama-cas.git#egg=django_mama_cas

That's helpful, thanks @manelclos! Although I created a second problem for myself by modifying response.py - to pass multiple role attributes back in CAS3.0 service validation back to a Tomcat server using jasig java-cas-client, which didn't want to play nice with mama_cas SAML support. The trouble was I needed to pass back multiple attributes, and mama_cas flattens everything to a single attribute.

So I modified response.py to iterate through a given list or tuple. This allows me to return attributes['role'] = ['role1', 'role2'] in my user attributes callback.

>                     # a subtree element for each of those items

>                             attr = etree.SubElement(attribute_set, self.ns(name))
>                             attr.text = force_text(ivalue)
>                     else:
>                         attr = etree.SubElement(attribute_set, self.ns(name))
>                         attr.text = force_text(value)

I didn't check that that works with python2, and I don't know that it's a good idea to change the behaviour on returning user attributes; could break existing CAS deployments. However this seems like sensible list behaviour to me.

Any status on this? Would be greatly appreciated.

@jbittel anything I can do to make this happen?

from django-mama-cas.

sry, if i use pip install -e git+https://github.com/jbittel/django-mama-cas.git#egg=django-mama-cas to install it. I failed to add 'mama_cas' to INSTALLED_APPS, how can i solve this problem

from django-mama-cas.

@Moonsownner what is the error you are getting? can you share more details about the problem?

from django-mama-cas.

@manelclos if use #egg to install the package. I get a 'src' folder in my project root, and the mama_cas files are in this folder. But i don't have mama_cas package in my site-packages. So how to link mama_cas into INSTALLED_APPS?
