Directory SSO API client

---

Installation

    $ pip install directory-sso-api-client

The api client expects the following settings:

Setting	Notes
DIRECTORY_SSO_API_CLIENT_BASE_URL
DIRECTORY_SSO_API_CLIENT_API_KEY	Unique to client. Retrieved during the on-boarding process.
DIRECTORY_SSO_API_CLIENT_SENDER_ID	Unique to client. Retrieved during the on-boarding process.
DIRECTORY_SSO_API_CLIENT_DEFAULT_TIMEOUT

Once that is done the API client can be used:

from directory_sso_api_client.client import sso_api_client

Authentication backend

Add the following to your settings

AUTHENTICATION_BACKENDS = ['directory_sso_api_client.backends.SSOUserBackend']

AUTH_USER_MODEL='directory_sso_api_client.SSOUser',

MIDDLEWARE_CLASSES = [
    ...
    'django.contrib.sessions.middleware.SessionMiddleware',
    'django.contrib.auth.middleware.AuthenticationMiddleware',
    ...

That will result in the user being authenticate via their sso session cookie and then attached to request.user.
