I would like to use OpenID authentication in a small Pyramid web application. Most projects I found are old and/or their status is unclear. My requirements are quite simple:
I want to protect access to some parts of the app. It's no high security stuff, but I don't want to care about user registration, password encryption, ... No fancy integration of multiple authentication sources, ...
Is there a simple, known working solution?
I used velruse in the past to have OpenID authentication on Pyramid, and it worked well.
However, if what you want is just a way to authenticate users without dealing with the boring parts, Mozilla Persona might be what you are looking for. One of the advantages over OpenID is that any email address can be used to log in; it's not limited to OpenID addresses. There an easy-to use library to use it with persona (disclaimer : I wrote it).
