5 This is a simple authentication backend that uses the python-pam package. Django PAM can be used in an SSO (Single Sign On) environment or just with a single box where you want to log into a Django app with your UNIX login. Contents 1

7 CHAPTER 1 Contents 1.1 Installation The easiest way to install the Django PAM package is with pip: $ pip install django-pam You can also install with GitHub. This is useful if you need to see Django PAM running in a real environment: $ git clone Note: Be aware that the pip requirements in the GitHub repository are not frozen. This may cause Django PAM to break if dependencies are used that are much newer than what I used. If this happens, please put an issue in my GitHub account to let me know. 1.2 Configuration Installing the Backend Authenticator You will need to add Django PAM to your INSTALLED_APPS: INSTALLED_APPS = [... 'django_pam', ] Next you will need to add the Django PAM backend to the AUTHENTICATION_BACKENDS: 3

8 AUTHENTICATION_BACKENDS = [ 'django_pam.auth.backends.pambackend', 'django.contrib.auth.backends.modelbackend', ] Note: 1. The user that runs the application needs to be a member of the /etc/shadow file group, this is usually the web server user. This is necessary so the web server can authenticate other users. To do this run the command below with the proper user. $ sudo usermod -a -G shadow <user> 2. If you use your UNIX account username you will be logged in through the PAMBackend backend. If you use the Django username you will be logged in through the ModelBackend, assuming both usernames and passwords are not the same Using the Django PAM Login and Logout Templates Use as is with Django PAM CSS Add the statement below to urlpatterns in your urls.py file: re_path(r'^django-pam/', include('django_pam.urls')), Then put the HTML below in your template: {% load staticfiles %} <a href="{% url 'django-pam:login' %}">Login</a> <a href="{% url 'django-pam:logout' %}?next={{ next }}">Logout</a> Use Modified CSS Add the statements below to urlpatterns in your urls.py file: re_path(r'^login/$', LoginView.as_view(template_name='<your template dir>/login.html '), name='login'), re_path(r"^logout/(?p<next>[\w\-\:/]+)?$", LogoutView.as_view( template_name='<your template dir>/logout.html'), name='logout'), Create login.html and logout.html templates. Login: {% extends "your_base.html" %} {% load staticfiles %} {% block script %} {{ form.media }} <link rel="stylesheet" href="{% static '<your css file>' %}"> {% endblock %} {% block content %}{% include "django_pam/accounts/_login.html" %}{% endblock %} The stanza above includes the Django PAM CSS and JavaScript code through the form. Then your overriding CSS is included. The JavaScript code, that s included from the form, is not dependent on any toolkit. 4 Chapter 1. Contents

9 Logout: {% extends "your_base.html" %} {% load staticfiles %} {% block script %} <link rel="stylesheet" href="{% static 'django_pam/css/auth.css' %}"> <link rel="stylesheet" href="{% static '<your css file>' %}"> {% endblock %} {% block content %}{% include "django_pam/accounts/_logout.html" %}{% endblock %} There is no form for logout so the CSS from Django PAM and your overriding CSS need to be included the normal way. Then use something like the HTML below in your HTML template: {% load staticfiles %} <a href="{% url 'login' %}">Login</a> <a href="{% url 'logout' %}?next={{ next }}">Logout</a> Using the Django PAM Login and Logout Modals Using the modals require a little more work, but it s still not to difficult. In your base.html head include: <link href=" type="text/css" media="all" rel="stylesheet" /> <link href="{% static 'django_pam/css/modal.css' %}" type="text/css" media="all" rel="stylesheet" /> <script src=" integrity="sha256-a23g1nt4dteyoj7br+vtu7+t8vp13humzfbjniyoejo=" crossorigin="anonymous"></script> <script src=" script> <script src="{% static 'django_pam/js/js.cookie min.js' %}"></script> <script src="{% static 'django_pam/js/inheritance.js' %}"></script> <script src="{% static 'django_pam/js/modal.js' %}"></script> At the bottom of your base.html template include this line just before the </html> tag: {% block modals %}{% endblock %} Then in the template that has your login html add at the bottom of the template: {% block modals %} <div id="modals"> {% include "django_pam/modals/login.html" %} {% include "django_pam/modals/logout.html" %} </div> <!-- div#modals --> {% endblock %} Note: The JavaScript for the modals is written in ES6 which is supported in most of the newer browsers. See: ECMAScript 6. Use Babel or Traceur if you wish to Transpile my JavaScript code Configuration 5

10 1.3 Overview Backend Authenticator PAMBackend.authenticate Authentication method 1 This method has two keyword arguments one for the username and the other for the password, both are manditory. There is a third argument used to pass in a dict of additional arguments that you may want stored in the database on the first login of the user. In order to use the additional arguments both the django.contrib.auth.authenticate function and either the django.contrib.auth.forms.authenticationform or the Django PAM django_pam.accounts.forms.authenticationform would need to be overridden, depending on which one you use. PAMBackend.get_user Returns the authenticated user 2 There is one positional argument that can be the pk, username, or . The would be used only if the is used instead of the username to identify the user Login and Logout Views LoginView 3 Usage: re_path(r'^login/$', LoginView.as_view( form_class=myauthenticationform, success_url='/my/success/url/', redirect_field_name='my-redirect-field-name', template_name='your_template.html' ), name='login'), This view is written to work with either a template POST or a XMLHttpRequest POST request. LogoutView 4 Usage: re_path(r'^logout/$', LogoutView.as_view( template_name='my_template.html', success_url='/my/success/url/), redirect_field_name='my-redirect-field-name' ), name='logout') This view is written to work with either a template POST or a XMLHttpRequest POST request. 1.4 Testing Since the user of the server that runs an application, that uses the backend provided by this package, needs to be a member of the UNIX shadow group, testing is a bit complicated. Because of this, this project is not able to run on 1 See source docs django_pam.auth.backends.pambackend.authenticate() 2 See source docs django_pam.auth.backends.pambackend.get_user() 3 See source docs django_pam.accounts.views.loginview 4 See source docs django_pam.accounts.views.logoutview 6 Chapter 1.

11 Travis CI. However, setting up tests to run locally can be done by following the few steps Give Your User Account Shadow Privileges This assumes that it is your user account that the runserver is running in. If not, then use the account that is running the runserver. $ sudo usermod -a -G shadow <username> Create a guest User $ sudo useradd guest -m -s /bin/bash -d /home/guest $ sudo passwd guest You will need to logout of your account then log back in again, this means out of any GUI that you may be in. After logged back in tests will run correctly, however, you will need to enter the username and password multiple times. This will get old fast Creating a.django_pam File Create a.django_pam file in the same directory as manage.py. On separate lines put guest (the username), the password you chose for it, and then a fake address. With this file in-place the test will no longer prompt for the username and password and will run all the tests with no prompts. 1.5 Django PAM django_pam package django_pam.accounts package django_pam.accounts.tests package django_pam.accounts.tests.test_accounts_forms module class django_pam.accounts.tests.test_accounts_forms.testauthenticationform(name) Bases: django_pam.auth.tests.base_test.basedjangopam setup() Hook method for setting up the test fixture before exercising it. test_invalid_credentials() Test for invalid credentials. test_missing_credentials() Test for missing credentials Django PAM 7
