An implementation of HTTP Negotiate authentication (RFC 4559) for requests.
Negotiate authentication is commonly used to provide Kerberos authentication through GSSAPI.
Here's a trivial example:
import requests
import requests_negotiate
auth = requests_negotiate.HTTPNegotiateAuth()
response = requests.get('https://example.org/', auth=auth)
You'll need a valid Kerberos ticket - acquired using e.g. kinit - for this to work.
You can instantiate an HTTPNegotiateAuth with the following optional parameters:
service - A Kerberos principal is generally composed of a service name (e.g. 'HTTP') and a hostname, separated by a slash ('/'). This lets you override the default service of 'HTTP'.service_name - Overrides the full service name (e.g. 'HTTP/example.org')negotiate_client_name - Explicitly specify which client principal to authenticate as. Particularly useful when you're using a credential cache collection.FAQs
