Flask extension for CAS
Project description
Flask-CAS
Flask-CAS is a Flask extension which makes it easy to authenticate with a CAS.
CAS
The Central Authentication Service (CAS) is a single sign-on protocol for the web. Its purpose is to permit a user to access multiple applications while providing their credentials (such as userid and password) only once. It also allows web applications to authenticate users without gaining access to a user’s security credentials, such as a password. The name CAS also refers to a software package that implements this protocol.
(Very short) Setup Tutorial
First create a Flask instance:
from flask import Flask
app = Flask(__name__)
Apply CAS on your Flask instance:
from flask_cas import CAS
CAS(app)
Do needed configuration:
app.config['CAS_SERVER'] = 'https://sso.pdx.edu'
app.config['CAS_AFTER_LOGIN'] = 'route_root'
Using
After you setup you will get two new routes /login/ and /logout/.
