flask-login

I have a simple flask web app hosted on Microsoft Azure which allows users to login, upload files, view uploaded files and logout. Now to handle users more efficiently I decided to use session from flask. here is my sample code '''import statements''' from flask import render_template, request, session '''more import statements''' @app.route('/') def home(): return render_template('login.html') @app.route('/login_user', methods=['GET', 'POST']) def login_user(): username = str(request.form['username']) password = request.form['password'] connection = MongoClient('mongodb://username:password

I have multiple blueprints that needs to be integrated into a single app. I'm using flask-login to handle logins. However I'm confused on how to handle the LoginManager() and the .user_loader for my blueprints. This is my current file structure. system/ run.py config.py app/ __init__.py models.py views/ blueprint1.py blueprint2.py static/ templates/ <templates> What's the correct way to implement them? Do I just call them at the __init__.py and import the login manager variable at the blueprints? or Do I need to call them individually in the blueprints? Hopefully I'm able to portray the

I am writing an app that has multiple classes that function as Users (for example, a School Account and a Staff account). I'm trying to use Flask-Login to make this easy but I'm not quite sure how to make it, so that when a user logs in I can have my app check to see whether or not the username belongs to a School account or Staff account, and then log in appropriately. I know how to figure out which type of account it belongs to (since all usernames must be unique). But after that I'm not sure how to tell the app that I want it to login that specific user. Right now, I only have one universal

I have a question regarding flask-login and blueprint. admin.py admin = Blueprint('admin', __name__) login_manager = LoginManager() login_manager.setup_app(admin) @login_manager.user_loader def load_user(userid): return User.query.get(int(userid)) @admin.route('/login', methods=["GET", "POST"]) def login(): login_form = LoginForm() if request.method == 'POST': #####user validation#### login_user(user) return redirect('/') return render_template('admin/login.html', login_form=login_form) run.py app = Flask(__name__) app.config.from_object(blog_config) app.register_blueprint(admin) if __name__ =

I'm writing some unit tests for my Flask web application and I'm trying to test the differences in the response between a request made by an anonymous user and a logged in user. I'm using the Flask-Login extension to implement the user login/logout. Obviously I'm able to perform an anonymous request, but how do I simulate a request from a logged in user? I thought it was enough to send in the headers the session cookie, but it's not working. headers = Headers({'Cookie':['WEBSITE_ID=%s; Domain=adsabs.harvard.edu; expires=Thu, 25-Apr-2213 16:53:22 GMT; Path=/' % cookie_value, 'WEBSITE_ID=%s;

I want to build a simple webapp as part of my learning activity. Webapp is supposed to ask for user to input their email_id if it encounters a first time visitor else it remembers the user through cookie and automatically logs him/her in to carry out the functions. This is my first time with creating a user based web app. I have a blue print in my mind but I am unable to figure out how to implement it. Primarily I am confused with respect to the way of collecting user cookie. I have looked into various tutorials and flask_login but I think what I want to implement is much simpler as compared
