Quick Start

1. Configure Django Settings

# settings.py
import os

PATRONUS = {
    # Provider configuration
    "PROVIDER_CLASS": "patronus.providers.gcip.GCIPProvider",

    # Credentials from environment variable (production)
    # JSON strings are auto-parsed, no need for json.loads()
    "PROVIDER_CREDENTIALS": os.environ.get("GCIP_CREDENTIALS"),

    # Or from file path (development)
    # "PROVIDER_CREDENTIALS": "/path/to/service-account.json",

    # Or use application default credentials
    # "PROVIDER_CREDENTIALS": None,

    # Profile loader (implement your own or use mock for testing)
    "PROFILE_LOADER_CLASS": "patronus.profile_loader.MockProfileLoader",
}

# Add Patronus authentication to DRF
REST_FRAMEWORK = {
    "DEFAULT_AUTHENTICATION_CLASSES": [
        "patronus.PatronusAuthentication",
    ],
}

# Add tenant middleware
MIDDLEWARE = [
    # ... other middleware ...
    "patronus.TenantMiddleware",
]

2. Implement a Profile Loader

# your_app/auth.py
from patronus import ProfileLoader, UserProfile, NoProfileError

class YourProfileLoader(ProfileLoader):
    def load_profile(
        self,
        uid: str,
        email: str | None = None,
        phone_number: str | None = None,
    ) -> UserProfile:
        try:
            user = User.objects.get(identity_provider_uid=uid)
            permissions = user.get_all_permissions()
            return UserProfile(
                company_id=user.company_id,
                permissions=frozenset(permissions),
                profile_type=user.profile_type,
            )
        except User.DoesNotExist:
            raise NoProfileError(f"No profile found for uid: {uid}")

    async def load_profile_async(
        self,
        uid: str,
        email: str | None = None,
        phone_number: str | None = None,
    ) -> UserProfile:
        # Async implementation
        return self.load_profile(uid, email, phone_number)

3. Use Permission Classes

# your_app/views.py
from rest_framework.views import APIView
from rest_framework.response import Response
from patronus import HasPermission, HasProfile, IsSameCompany

class PatientListView(APIView):
    permission_classes = [HasPermission("read:patients")]

    def get(self, request):
        # request.user is a NovahUser instance
        return Response({"patients": []})

class PatientDetailView(APIView):
    permission_classes = [HasProfile, IsSameCompany]

    def get(self, request, pk):
        patient = get_object_or_404(Patient, pk=pk)
        self.check_object_permissions(request, patient)
        return Response({"patient": patient.data})

4. Use Tenant Context

from patronus import get_current_company, company_context

def some_service_function():
    company_id = get_current_company()
    if company_id:
        # Filter by tenant
        return Model.objects.filter(company_id=company_id)

# Or use context manager for scoped access
with company_context(some_company_id):
    do_tenant_scoped_work()
