BottleSaml 21.8.1

SAML Service Provider for Bottle

BottleSaml

BottleSaml is a Python module for the Bottle web framework. in two parts:

• SamlSP() - an implementation of a SAML Service Provider implementation for Bottle web apps. This permits bottle apps to authenticated with a SAML Identity Provider (IdP). This module can be used on it's own, or combined with SamlAuth.

• SamlAuth() - is a middleware plugin offering simplified authentication and authorization mechanisms utilizing SamlSP in Bottle framework apps.

Both modules in BottleSaml rely on persistent session data in the form of a Python dict accessed off the Bottle request object (i.e. request.session). By default BottleSaml will use the BottleSessions module to provide this - but any session middleware that can add a session dict to the request object can be used.

In both components the goal is to provide easy to use tools for using SAML identity management platforms in Bottle apps.
