+class AuthConfig(object):
+ """
+ AuthConfig class implements system-independent interface to configure
+ system authentication resources. In Red Hat systems this is done with
+ authconfig(8) utility.
+
+ AuthConfig class is nothing more than a tool to gather configuration
+ options and execute their processing. These options then converted by
+ an actual implementation to series of a system calls to appropriate
+ utilities performing real configuration.
+
+ IPA *expects* names of AuthConfig's options to follow authconfig(8)
+ naming scheme!
+
+ Actual implementation should be done in ipapython/platform/<platform>.py
+ by inheriting from platform.AuthConfig and redefining build_args()
+ and execute() methods.
+
+ from ipapython.platform import platform
+ class PlatformAuthConfig(platform.AuthConfig):
+ def build_args():
+ ...
+
+ def execute():
+ ...
+
+ authconfig = PlatformAuthConfig
+ ....
+
+ See ipapython/platform/redhat.py for a sample implementation that uses
+ authconfig(8) as its backend.
+
+ From IPA code perspective, the authentication configuration should be
+ done with use of ipapython.services.authconfig:
+
+ from ipapython import services as ipaservices
+ auth_config = ipaservices.authconfig()
+ auth_config.disable("ldap")
+ auth_config.disable("krb5")
+ auth_config.disable("sssd")
+ auth_config.disable("sssdauth")
+ auth_config.disable("mkhomedir")
+ auth_config.add_option("update")
+ auth_config.enable("nis")
+ auth_config.add_parameter("nisdomain","foobar")
+ auth_config.execute()
+
+ If you need to re-use existing AuthConfig instance for multiple runs,
+ make sure to call 'AuthConfig.reset()' between the runs.
