Catalyst::Plugin::Authentication::Store::Minimal - Authentication database in $c->config.
$c->config
use Catalyst qw/ Authentication Authentication::Store::Minimal Authentication::Credential::Password /; __PACKAGE__->config->{authentication}{users} = { name => { password => "s3cr3t", roles => [qw/admin editor/], ... }, }; sub login : Global { my ( $self, $c ) = @_; $c->login( $c->req->param("login"), $c->req->param("password"), ); }
This authentication store plugin lets you create a very quick and dirty user database in your application's config hash.
You will need to include the Authentication plugin, and at least one Credential plugin to use this Store. Credential::Password is reccommended.
It's purpose is mainly for testing, and it should probably be replaced by a more "serious" store for production.
The hash in the config, as well as the user objects/hashes are freely mutable at runtime.
This is a simple hash of users, the keys are the usenames, and the values are hashrefs containing a password key/value pair, and optionally, a roles/list of role-names pair. If using roles, you will also need to add the Authorization::Roles plugin.
See the SYNOPSIS for an example.
This method will popultate $c->config->{authentication}{store} so that "default_auth_store" in Catalyst::Plugin::Authentication can use it.
$c->config->{authentication}{store}
