While moving away from my customized authorization handling (not
related to tools.Auth) I feel the need to use custom auth tables as
explained in the latest slides (slide 125).
The outlined procedure for creating a custom auth_user table calls for
some required base fields.
What manipulation is allowed on these base fields?.
Can I change their length? add requires to them?.
Or are they untouchable?
Even if they can not be modified I feel that these fields and their
requires should be provided in one of the settings so that you could
pass them as part of the define_table call, making the process less
error prone.
So somewhere in Auth.__init__ there would be a:
self.settings.table_user.basefields= [db.Field
('first_name',...), ...]
or similar, and then you could do
fields=auth.settings.table_user.basefields.extend([my_fields_here])
auth.settings.table_user = db.define_table(fields)
Denes.
