Hi,
I'm also using rpc4django, I remember I did something like this:
class HttpAuthMiddleware:
"""
Simple HTTP-Basic auth for testing webservices
"""
def process_request(self, request):
auth_basic = request.META.get('HTTP_AUTHORIZATION')
if auth_basic:
import base64
try:
username , dummy, password =
base64.decodestring(auth_basic[6:]).partition(':')
user = User.objects.get(username=username)
if user.check_password(password):
request.user = user
except User.DoesNotExist:
return None
Now I can call ws with
curl -v -d @test.xml "http://username:passw...@localhost:8000/RPC2";
