Is there a one and true way to add authentication in Pylons? I’ve seen so many different ways, but most of them are either outdated or too complex. Is there a tutorial somewhere that explains how to add authentication in a good and solid way?
Pylon’s official stance appears to be: We don’t do authentication, you can plug in whatever authentication system you want.
Authkit works. It is very basic, but, does a relatively simple job rather well.
Repoze.who/Repoze.what works fairly well and is maintained/developed a bit more actively.
You could use RPX along with openid as mentioned on Tony Landis’ blog
Or, you could use BlastOff which contains a bit more than just authentication. It comes with registration, user management, forgot my password functionality, etc.
