Auth

This page summarizes points on authentication in nautilus apart from the basic workflow outlined in the getting started guide.

Customizing User Session

Customizing the information stored in a user session (and therefore the criteria) by which you can authorize the user is easy. Simply define a method in your api gateway called user_session which takes the remote record of the user and returns a dictionary with that users sesstion:

..code-block:: python

class MyAPI(nautilus.APIGateway):

def user_session(user):

return {

‘id’: user[‘id’], ‘name’: user[‘name’]

}
