using django-auth-ldap only for authorization

[alekam]

I want use django-auth-ldap only for user authtorizion and
authenticate users from another backend.
I add some modifications to django-auth-ldap. Changeset:
https://bitbucket.org/kamedov/django-auth-ldap/changeset/2e966830eaad

Usage example:

# ~*~ my-backend.py ~*~

from django_auth_ldap.backend import LDAPBackend, _LDAPUser
from django_cas.backends import CASBackend

class CasLdapBackend(CASBackend, LDAPBackend):
def authenticate(self, ticket, service):
"""Authenticates CAS ticket and retrieves user data from
LDAP"""

user = CASBackend.authenticate(self, ticket, service)

ldap_user = _LDAPUser(self, user=user)
ldap_user.authtorize()

return ldap_user.get_user()

def get_user(self, user_id):
return LDAPBackend.get_user(self, user_id)

Thanks, alekam. You might also look at the existing AUTH_LDAP_AUTHORIZE_ALL_USERS[1] setting. It seems like it addresses the same scenario.

Hm, it looks like the same, but I'm not understanding how to use it in my case.

[Peter Sagerson]

If you set AUTH_LDAP_AUTHORIZE_ALL_USERS, you won't get the behavior of _check_requirements or _get_or_create_user, but you will get the behavior of AUTH_LDAP_FIND_GROUP_PERMS for all users, regardless of how they were authenticated. If you need to populate any model fields from LDAP, then you'll need your customization.

Thanks you for explanation.
