Think i havent explained my problem very well ... Since its a Saas the users are inside schemas/tenants one user can have accounts inside different schemas (they share username and password) ... i want to let the user move throught different tenants more or less freely ... now i have designed a view where the user can select the other tenants he is also in. Using that view I can correctly switch him to his other user object in the other schemas when i have the cookie setting as ".domain.ext" like explained on the djanco documentation.
But we really want to be able to have different versions of the app on different browser apps, so that approach doesnt work for us. When i change the cookie configuration to "domain.ext" doesnt work because the original view is on one tenant and the next view (where the just logged user really belongs) is inside other tenant then the old cookie is deleted. So the question is how can i programmatically set the cookie correctly on the new view so the user that really belongs to that tenat is still authenticated. 2016-02-01 12:37 GMT+00:00 'Tom Evans' via Django users < django-users@googlegroups.com>: > On Mon, Feb 1, 2016 at 10:13 AM, monoBOT <monobot.s...@gmail.com> wrote: > > Hello django! > > > > Im creating a saas with django, due to some project requirements need to > > manually change the user "on the fly" but have problems with the cookie, > > since I dont know how to manually (read programatically) set it. > > > > Any insights or a good place to start?
