[gcdebug] Only ignore weakref.WeakKeyDictionary class on Python 2
From Python 3.5, this class fails isinstance check with the following
error:
::
cls = <class 'weakref.WeakKeyDictionary'>, instance = <functools._lru_list_elem object at 0x7f4331859a48>
def __instancecheck__(cls, instance):
"""Override for isinstance(instance, cls)."""
# Inline the cache checking
> subclass = instance.__class__
E AssertionError: [<class 'AttributeError'> in gc] 'functools._lru_list_elem' object has no attribute '__class__'
/usr/lib/python3.5/abc.py:181: AssertionError
I have no clue why this happens, but it makes
cubicweb.web.test.test_views.AutomaticWebTest.test_startup_views fail on
Python 3.5. So only consider this class for Python 2.
Authentication
==============
Overview
--------
A default authentication stack is provided by the :mod:`cubicweb.pyramid.auth`
module, which is included by :mod:`cubicweb.pyramid.default`.
The authentication stack is built around `pyramid_multiauth`_, and provides a
few default policies that reproduce the default cubicweb behavior.
.. note::
Note that this module only provides an authentication policy, not the views
that handle the login form. See :ref:`login_module`
Customize
---------
The default policies can be individually deactivated, as well as the default
authentication callback that returns the current user groups as :term:`principals`.
The following settings can be set to `False`:
- :confval:`cubicweb.auth.update_login_time`. Activate the policy that update
the user `login_time` when `remember` is called.
- :confval:`cubicweb.auth.authtkt` and all its subvalues.
- :confval:`cubicweb.auth.groups_principals`
Additionnal policies can be added by accessing the MultiAuthenticationPolicy
instance in the registry:
.. code-block:: python
mypolicy = SomePolicy()
authpolicy = config.registry['cubicweb.authpolicy']
authpolicy._policies.append(mypolicy)
