|
|
|
|
|
|
asyncio
|
|
|
|
The library for writing single-threaded concurrent code using
|
|
coroutines, multiplexing I/O access over sockets and other
|
|
resources, running network clients and servers, and other
|
|
related primitives.
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
authentication
|
|
|
|
Actions related to retrieving, storing and removing user's
|
|
:term:`identity`.
|
|
|
|
Authenticated user has no access rights, the system even has no
|
|
knowledge is there the user still registered in DB.
|
|
|
|
If :class:`~aiohttp.web.Request` has an :term:`identity` it
|
|
means the user has some ID that should be checked by
|
|
:term:`authorization` policy.
|
|
|
|
authorization
|
|
|
|
Checking actual permissions for identified user along with
|
|
getting :term:`userid`.
|
|
|
|
identity
|
|
|
|
Session-wide :class:`str` for identifying user.
|
|
|
|
Stored in local storage (client-side cookie or server-side storage).
|
|
|
|
Use :meth:`~aiohttp_session.remember` for saving *identity* (sign in)
|
|
and :meth:`~aiohttp_session.forget` for dropping it (sign out).
|
|
|
|
*identity* is used for getting :term:`userid` and :term:`permission`.
|
|
|
|
permission
|
|
|
|
Permission required for access to resource.
|
|
|
|
Permissions are just strings, and they have no required
|
|
composition: you can name permissions whatever you like.
|
|
|
|
userid
|
|
|
|
User's ID, most likely his *login* or *email*
