[!NOTE] This package requires a running instance of the authentication service.

Features

This

Installation

To install the package, use pip:

pip install flask-lac

Usage

Initialization

First, initialize the AuthPackage with your Flask app:

from flask import Flask
from flask_lac import AuthPackage

app = Flask(__name__)
auth = AuthPackage(app, auth_service_url="https://auth.luova.club", app_id="your_app_id")

[!IMPORTANT] To get your app_id, register as a user on the authentication service and create a new application.

Routes

The package provides several routes for authentication:

• /login: Redirects to the external authentication service.
• /auth_callback: Handles the authentication callback.
• /secured_route: A secured route that requires user authentication.

Example

Here is an example of how to use the package in your Flask application:

from flask import Flask, render_template
from flask_lac import AuthPackage, login_required

app = Flask(__name__)
auth = AuthPackage(app, auth_service_url="https://auth.luova.club", app_id="your_app_id")

@app.route('/')
def index():
    return "Welcome to the Flask LAC example!"

@app.route('/secured')
@login_required
def secured():
    return render_template('secured.html', username=auth._user._info.username)

if __name__ == '__main__':
    app.run(debug=True)

User Authentication

The User class handles user authentication and information retrieval:

from flask_lac.user import User

user = User()
if user.is_authenticated():
    print("User is authenticated")
else:
    print("User is not authenticated")
