asyncio-portier 0.1.0

Portier authentication asyncio-aware Python helpers.

asyncio-portier is a set of helpers for the Portier Identity Provider. It is based on the portier-python package but modified to work with asyncio.

Usage

The helpers work in much the same way as the ones in portier-python. Check the demos directory for usage examples.

Notes

• portier-python doesn’t seem to work quite right with Redis as the cache backend, so there are a few Redis-specific modifications. This may change in the future.

• I expected the calls to cryptographic libraries to be blocking, but I saw no improvement from running those calls in an Executor as per https://docs.python.org/3/library/asyncio-eventloop.html#executor.
