Restricting Access by IP

[Marc Smith]

Hi,

I have a web2py app that is hosted on PythonAnywhere. I'd like to
restrict access to the "admin" application and the "appadmin" page of
my app by IP address. Ideally, I'd like to return a 404 to anyone that
doesn't match one or more IP addresses.

Is this possible using the global routes.py? Or is there a better way
to do it from inside the "admin" app, and the "appadmin" controller?
Looked briefly for an example, but didn't see anything that got me
close enough.

Any tips or advice/ideas would be greatly appreciated.

hafte: I think you posted to the wrong thread...

A friendly bump to the others: Is there a way to restrict access by IP
address in web2py's main/core routes.py?

Right now I'm doing it in appname/controllers/appadmin.py with this:
--snip--
if request.client not in ['x.x.x.x']:
raise HTTP(404)
--snip--

And the same for admin/models/access.py:
--snip--
if request.client not in ['x.x.x.x']:
raise HTTP(404)
--snip--

This does work and accomplish what I need, but it would be nice to do
it centrally from routes.py.


Thanks,

Marc
