eea.frame 0.3.5

EEA Frame

Django integration middleware for EEA Zope websites.

Template and request

pip install eea.frame

In your project’s settings.py add:

INSTALLED_APPS = (
... # django apps
'frame'
... # your project's apps
)

MIDDLEWARE_CLASSES = (
  'frame.middleware.RequestMiddleware',
  'frame.middleware.UserMiddleware',
  'django.contrib.sessions.middleware.SessionMiddleware',
  'django.middleware.common.CommonMiddleware',
  'django.middleware.csrf.CsrfViewMiddleware',
  'django.contrib.auth.middleware.AuthenticationMiddleware',
  'django.contrib.messages.middleware.MessageMiddleware',
  'django.middleware.clickjacking.XFrameOptionsMiddleware',
)

TEMPLATE_LOADERS = (
  'frame.middleware.Loader',
  'django.template.loaders.filesystem.Loader',
  'django.template.loaders.app_directories.Loader',
)

Also, usually in local_settings.py you need to define: FRAME_URL to an url pointing to a Zope frame instance, and FRAME_COOKIES = ['__ac', '_ZopeId'].

Your layout.html must extend "frame.html" in order to use the frame.

Authentication Backend

If you want to use the Django groups and permissions settings with users from _eea.frame_, you need to set:

MIDDLEWARE_CLASSES = (
  ...
  'django.contrib.auth.middleware.RemoteUserMiddleware',
  ...
)

AUTHENTICATION_BACKENDS = (
  'django.contrib.auth.backends.ModelBackend',
  'frame.backends.FrameUserBackend',
)

For each user that is authenticated on _eea.frame_, a django.contrib.auth.models.User instance is created.

For each of the roles the user has in _eea.frame_, a django.contrib.auth.models.Group instance is created, and you can assign permissions to that group.
