Python library functions to simplify using IGWN authorisation credentials.
https://igwn-auth-utils.readthedocs.io/
This project is primarily aimed at discovering X.509 credentials and SciTokens for use with HTTP(S) requests to IGWN-operated services.
The best way to install the latest release is using
conda
with the
conda-forge
channel enabled:
conda install -c conda-forge igwn-auth-utils
The latest release can also be installed using pip
:
python -m pip install igwn-auth-utils
To discover an X.509 user credential (proxy) location:
>>> from igwn_auth_utils import find_x509_credentials
>>> print(find_x509_credentials())
('/tmp/x509up_u1000', '/tmp/x509up_u1000')
To discover (and deserialise) a SciToken for a specific
purpose (audience
and scope
):
>>> from igwn_auth_utils import find_scitoken
>>> print(find_scitoken("myservice", "read:/mydata"))
