DESCRIPTION

This module integrates Authen::TypeKey with Catalyst::Plugin::Authentication.

METHODS

authenticate_typekey %parameters

authenticate_typekey

EXTENDED METHODS

setup

Fills the config with defaults.

CONFIGURATION

<$c-config->{autentication}{typekey}>> is a hash with these fields (all can be left out):

typekey_object

If this field does not exist an Authen::TypeKey object will be created based on the other param and put here.

expires
key_url
token
version

See Authen::TypeKey for all of these. If they aren't specified Authen::TypeKey's defaults will be used.

key_cache

Also see Authen::TypeKey.

Defaults to regkeys.txt under "class2tempdir" in Catalyst::Utils.

auth_store

A store (or store name) to retrieve the user from.

When a user is successfully authenticated it will call this:

$store->get_user( $name, $parameters, $result_of_verify );

Where $parameters is a the hash reference passed to "verify" in Authen::TypeKey, and $result_of_verify is the value returned by "verify" in Authen::TypeKey.

If this is unset, "default_auth_store" in Catalyst::Plugin::Authentication will be used instead.

user_class

If auth_store or the default store returns nothing from get_user, this class will be used to instantiate an object by calling new on the class with the return value from "verify" in Authen::TypeKey.
