An Django authentication backend for using the Google App Engine Users and Oauth API for user login/logout.

It only works on Google App Engine and you will also need the Djangoappengine backend for Django-Nonrel.

Different rule : only authorize Django staff and GAE admin users

(and don't use settings ALLOWD_USERS or ALLOWED_DOMAINS)

• get the code:

  git clone https://github.com/Philoozushi/django-gaeauth.git

• add gaeauth.backends.GoogleAccountBackend to your AUTHENTICATION_BACKENDS and gaeauth to your INSTALLED_APPS

  settings.py:

  AUTHENTICATION_BACKENDS = (
        ...
        'gaeauth.backends.GoogleAccountBackend', 
  )
  
  INSTALLED_APPS = (      
        ...
        'gaeauth',
  )

• include gaeauth.urls in your urlconf to login, logout and authenticate

  urls.py:

  urlpatterns = patterns('',
       ...
       (r'^accounts/', include('gaeauth.urls')),
  )

Now you can use /accounts/login/ to use Google Accounts for login and /accounts/logout/ to log out.

Django-gaeauth provides following named urls:

google_login

displays the Google login form

google_logout

logout the user using the Google App Engine Users API

google_authenticate

authenticates the user using the Google App Engine Users API
