Overview¶
After you have successfully installed RestAuth, there are only two things you have to do to get a working RestAuth server:
After you have done that, you still need to tell RestAuth about the services that may use it. You can do this with the command-line script restauth-service.py. After that, all that is left is to configure the services themself.
RestAuth configuration and management¶
RestAuth is configured in the file RestAuth/localsettings.py
. The file shipping
with RestAuth already includes all variables and documentation for what you
will likely want to change. Please also consult
the settings reference on noteworthy
configuration variables. By default, you have to do very few modifications to
RestAuth/localsettings.py
, the only thing you really have to do is
configure a database.
Note
For Django experts
RestAuth, as a Django project, is of course really configured like any other
project, with the file settings.py
. This file defines defaults,
includes RestAuth/localsettings.py
and sets some settings intelligentely based on
what you set in RestAuth/localsettings.py
. You can of course set any Django
setting you want in
RestAuth/localsettings.py
.
You can manage your RestAuth server completely from the command-line. Please see the overview of available command-line scripts:
