Autonatic login to applications using Pyramid

[annut...@gmail.com]

Hi,

I’m new to Pyramid. I’ve basic knowledge in using python. I created a ldap login wepage using pyramid-ldap now on the home page I have couple of buttons/links showing different applications the user can access. 

I want to send user's credentials to the application and automatically login the user when user clicks the button/link. 

Is it possible to achieve this without using ajax ? 

I am able to achieve automatic login using mechanize using a python script on commadline but I am not sure how to do this from a template when clicking a button or link and redirect to another application. 

Thanks

Ann

Instead of sending the credentials direct (it can have security implications), people will often use oAuth, JWT or similar technologies to achieve something like this.
