how to use ExtendedLoginForm ?

[Bruno Rocha]

Hi, I am trying to have both default login form and RPX working.

Looking for login_methods on gluon.contrib I found ExtendedLoginForm

"""

ExtendedLoginForm is used to extend normal login form in web2py with one more login method.

So user can choose the built-in login or extended login methods.

"""

then in my model:

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

from gluon.contrib.login_methods.rpx_account import RPXAccount

from gluon.contrib.login_methods.extended_login_form import ExtendedLoginForm

rpxform = RPXAccount(request, 

    api_key='thekey',

    domain='mydomain',

    url = "http://mydomain.com.br/%s/%s" % (request.application,geturl()))

extended_login_form = ExtendedLoginForm(request, auth, rpxform, signals=['token'])

auth.settings.login_form = extended_login_form

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I got this error:

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Version

TypeError: __init__() got multiple values for keyword argument 'signals'

Well, ExtendedLoginForm is not working, but I am trying to fix it and send a patch.

By now, I am using another solution, If someone else needs the same.

to have both auth modes [built-in and RPX] just like in: http://natalanimal.com.br/init/default/user/login  and web2pyslices.com

At models after the definition of auth:

<code>

if request.vars._next:

    url = "http://yourdomain.com.br/app/default/user/login?_next=%s" % request.vars._next

else:

    url = "http://yourdomain.com.br/app/default/user/login"

rpxform = RPXAccount(request, 

    api_key='<your api key>',

    domain='<your domain without name >',

    url = url,

    language="pt-BR",embed=True

    

    )

</code>

In the controller:

<code>

def user():

    rpx = ''

    registerurl=URL('default','user',args='register')

    if request.vars.token:

        auth.settings.login_form = rpxform

        return dict(form=auth())

    if 'login' in request.args:

        rpx = rpxform.login_form()

        html = DIV(H1('Login'),

               rpx,BR(),BR(),

               H1(A('Click to register',_href=registerurl),BR(),' or sign-up with your password:'),

               auth(),

              )

    else:

        html = auth()

           

    return dict(form=html)

</code>

That is working very well now! thanks for Nathan Freeze who helps me a lot!

If I got success fixing ExtendLoginForm I will send a patch for this.
