Configuring repoze.who in a INI file
You can configure your repoze.who based authentication via a *.ini file, and then load such settings in your application.
Say we have a file called who.ini with the following contents:
[general] request_classifier = repoze.who.classifiers:default_request_classifier challenge_decider = repoze.who.classifiers:default_challenge_decider [identifiers] plugins = auth_tkt [authenticators] plugins = auth_tkt dev_auth [challengers] plugins = form;browser [mdproviders] plugins = dev_properties dev_groups [plugin:form] use = repoze.who.plugins.form:make_plugin rememberer_name = auth_tkt [plugin:auth_tkt] use = repoze.who.plugins.auth_tkt:make_plugin secret = s3kr1t [plugin:dev_auth] use = who_dev:JSONAuthenticatorPlugin data = { "someuser": { "password": "abc123", "properties": { "first_name": "Some", "last_name": "User", "email": "someuser@localhost" }, "groups": ["members", "editors"] } } [plugin:dev_properties] use = who_dev:JSONPropertiesPlugin source_key = properties [plugin:dev_groups] use = who_dev:JSONPropertiesPlugin source_key = groups

Configuration
JSONAuthenticatorPlugin
This plugin uses a JSON object as a database, where each key in the object is the userid and the value is another object with specific details about the user, which can then be used along ith JSONPropertiesPlugin to retrieve specific details about the user.
Each record for a user must at a minimum contain a password entry so that the user can authenticate, for example:
data={ "someuser": {"password": "abc123"}, "otheruser": {"password": "xyz789"} }
