=head1 NAME

Catalyst::Authentication::Credential::OpenID - OpenID credential for Catalyst::Plugin::Authentication framework.

=head1 VERSION

0.14

=head1 SYNOPSIS

In MyApp.pm-

 use Catalyst qw/
    Authentication
    Session
    Session::Store::FastMmap
    Session::State::Cookie
 /;

Somewhere in myapp.conf-

 <Plugin::Authentication>
     default_realm   openid
     <realms>
         <openid>
             <credential>
                 class   OpenID
             </credential>
             ua_class   LWPx::ParanoidAgent
         </openid>
     </realms>
 </Plugin::Authentication>

Or in your myapp.yml if you're using L<YAML> instead-

 Plugin::Authentication:
   default_realm: openid
   realms:
     openid:
       credential:
         class: OpenID
       ua_class: LWPx::ParanoidAgent

In a controller, perhaps C<Root::openid>-

 sub openid : Local {
      my($self, $c) = @_;

      if ( $c->authenticate() )
      {
          $c->flash(message => "You signed in with OpenID!");
          $c->res->redirect( $c->uri_for('/') );
      }
      else
      {
          # Present OpenID form.
      }
 }

And a L<Template> to match in C<openid.tt>-

 <form action="[% c.uri_for('/openid') %]" method="GET" name="openid">
 <input type="text" name="openid_identifier" class="openid" />
 <input type="submit" value="Sign in with OpenID" />
 </form>

=head1 DESCRIPTION

This is the B<third> OpenID related authentication piece for
L<Catalyst>. The first E<mdash> L<Catalyst::Plugin::Authentication::OpenID>
by Benjamin Trott E<mdash> was deprecated by the second E<mdash>
L<Catalyst::Plugin::Authentication::Credential::OpenID> by Tatsuhiko
Miyagawa E<mdash> and this is an attempt to deprecate both by conforming to
the newish, at the time of this module's inception, realm-based
authentication in L<Catalyst::Plugin::Authentication>.

 1. Catalyst::Plugin::Authentication::OpenID
 2. Catalyst::Plugin::Authentication::Credential::OpenID
 3. Catalyst::Authentication::Credential::OpenID

The benefit of this version is that you can use an arbitrary number of
authentication systems in your L<Catalyst> application and configure
and call all of them in the same way.

Note that both earlier versions of OpenID authentication use the method
C<authenticate_openid()>. This module uses C<authenticate()> and
relies on you to specify the realm. You can specify the realm as the
default in the configuration or inline with each
C<authenticate()> call; more below.

This module functions quite differently internally from the others.
See L<Catalyst::Plugin::Authentication::Internals> for more about this
implementation.

=head1 METHODS

=over 4

=item $c->authenticate({},"your_openid_realm");

Call to authenticate the user via OpenID. Returns false if
authorization is unsuccessful. Sets the user into the session and
returns the user object if authentication succeeds.

You can see in the call above that the authentication hash is empty.
The implicit OpenID parameter is, as the 2.0 specification says it
SHOULD be, B<openid_identifier>. You can set it anything you like in
your realm configuration, though, under the key C<openid_field>. If
you call C<authenticate()> with the empty info hash and no configured
C<openid_field> then only C<openid_identifier> is checked.

It implicitly does this (sort of, it checks the request method too)-

 my $claimed_uri = $c->req->params->{openid_identifier};
 $c->authenticate({openid_identifier => $claimed_uri});

=item Catalyst::Authentication::Credential::OpenID->new()

You will never call this. Catalyst does it for you. The only important
thing you might like to know about it is that it merges its realm
configuration with its configuration proper. If this doesn't mean
anything to you, don't worry.

=head2 USER METHODS

Currently the only supported user class is L<Catalyst::Plugin::Authentication::User::Hash>.

See L<Net::OpenID::VerifiedIdentity> for details.

=head1 CONFIGURATION

Catalyst authentication is now configured entirely from your
application's configuration. Do not, for example, put
C<Credential::OpenID> into your C<use Catalyst ...> statement.
Instead, tell your application that in one of your authentication
realms you will use the credential.

In your application the following will give you two different
authentication realms. One called "members" which authenticates with
clear text passwords and one called "openid" which uses... uh, OpenID.

 __PACKAGE__->config
    ( name => "MyApp",
      "Plugin::Authentication" => {
          default_realm => "members",
          realms => {
              members => {
                  credential => {
                      class => "Password",
                      password_field => "password",
                      password_type => "clear"
                      },
                          store => {
                              class => "Minimal",
                              users => {
                                  paco => {
                                      password => "l4s4v3n7ur45",
                                  },
                              }
                          }
              },
              openid => {
                  consumer_secret => "Don't bother setting",
                  ua_class => "LWPx::ParanoidAgent",
                  ua_args => {
                      whitelisted_hosts => [qw/ 127.0.0.1 localhost /],
                  },
                  credential => {
                      class => "OpenID",
                      store => {
                          class => "OpenID",
                      },
                  },
                  extension_args => [
                      'http://openid.net/extensions/sreg/1.1',
                      {
                       required => 'email',
                       optional => 'fullname,nickname,timezone',
                      },
                  ],
              },
          },
      }
    );

This is the same configuration in the default L<Catalyst> configuration format from L<Config::General>.

             <credential>
                 <store>
                     class   OpenID
                 </store>
                 class   OpenID
             </credential>
             <extension_args>
                 http://openid.net/extensions/sreg/1.1
                 required   email

             </extension_args>
         </openid>
     </realms>
 </Plugin::Authentication>

And now, the same configuration in L<YAML>. B<NB>: L<YAML> is whitespace sensitive.

B<NB>: There is no OpenID store yet.

=head2 EXTENSIONS TO OPENID

The L<Simple Registration|http://openid.net/extensions/sreg/1.1> (SREG) extension to OpenID is supported in the L<Net::OpenID> family now. Experimental support for it is included here as of v0.12. SREG is the only supported extension in OpenID 1.1. It's experimental in the sense it's a new interface and barely tested. Support for OpenID extensions is here to stay.

=head2 MORE ON CONFIGURATION

These are set in your realm. See above.

=over 4

=item ua_args and ua_class

L<LWPx::ParanoidAgent> is the default agent E<mdash> C<ua_class>. You don't
have to set it. I recommend that you do B<not> override it. You can
with any well behaved L<LWP::UserAgent>. You probably should not.
L<LWPx::ParanoidAgent> buys you many defenses and extra security
checks. When you allow your application users freedom to initiate
external requests, you open a big avenue for DoS (denial of service)
attacks. L<LWPx::ParanoidAgent> defends against this.
L<LWP::UserAgent> and any regular subclass of it will not.

=item consumer_secret

The underlying L<Net::OpenID::Consumer> object is seeded with a
secret. If it's important to you to set your own, you can. The default
uses this package name + its version + the sorted configuration keys
of your Catalyst application (chopped at 255 characters if it's
longer). This should generally be superior to any fixed string.

=back

=head1 TODO

Support more of the new methods in the L<Net::OpenID> kit.

There are some interesting implications with this sort of setup. Does
a user aggregate realms or can a user be signed in under more than one
realm? The documents could contain a recipe of the self-answering
OpenID end-point that is in the tests.

Debug statements need to be both expanded and limited via realm
configuration.

Better diagnostics in errors. Debug info at all consumer calls.

Roles from provider domains? Mapped? Direct? A generic "openid" auto_role?

=head1 THANKS

To Benjamin Trott (L<Catalyst::Plugin::Authentication::OpenID>), Tatsuhiko Miyagawa (L<Catalyst::Plugin::Authentication::Credential::OpenID>), Brad Fitzpatrick for the great OpenID stuff, Martin Atkins for picking up the code to handle OpenID 2.0, and Jay Kuri and everyone else who has made Catalyst such a wonderful framework.

L<Menno Blom|http://search.cpan.org/~blom/> provided a bug fix and the hook to use OpenID extensions.

=head1 NAME

Catalyst::Authentication::Credential::OpenID - OpenID credential for Catalyst::Plugin::Authentication framework.

=head1 VERSION

0.13

=head1 SYNOPSIS

In MyApp.pm-

 use Catalyst qw/
    Authentication
    Session
    Session::Store::FastMmap
    Session::State::Cookie
 /;

Somewhere in myapp.conf-

 <Plugin::Authentication>
     default_realm   openid
     <realms>
         <openid>
             <credential>
                 class   OpenID
             </credential>
             ua_class   LWPx::ParanoidAgent
         </openid>
     </realms>
 </Plugin::Authentication>

Or in your myapp.yml if you're using L<YAML> instead-

 Plugin::Authentication:
   default_realm: openid
   realms:
     openid:
       credential:
         class: OpenID
       ua_class: LWPx::ParanoidAgent

In a controller, perhaps C<Root::openid>-

 sub openid : Local {
      my($self, $c) = @_;

      if ( $c->authenticate() )
      {
          $c->flash(message => "You signed in with OpenID!");
          $c->res->redirect( $c->uri_for('/') );
      }
      else
      {
          # Present OpenID form.
      }
 }

And a L<Template> to match in C<openid.tt>-

 <form action="[% c.uri_for('/openid') %]" method="GET" name="openid">
 <input type="text" name="openid_identifier" class="openid" />
 <input type="submit" value="Sign in with OpenID" />
 </form>

=head1 DESCRIPTION

This is the B<third> OpenID related authentication piece for
L<Catalyst>. The first E<mdash> L<Catalyst::Plugin::Authentication::OpenID>
by Benjamin Trott E<mdash> was deprecated by the second E<mdash>
L<Catalyst::Plugin::Authentication::Credential::OpenID> by Tatsuhiko
Miyagawa E<mdash> and this is an attempt to deprecate both by conforming to
the newish, at the time of this module's inception, realm-based
authentication in L<Catalyst::Plugin::Authentication>.

 1. Catalyst::Plugin::Authentication::OpenID
 2. Catalyst::Plugin::Authentication::Credential::OpenID
 3. Catalyst::Authentication::Credential::OpenID

The benefit of this version is that you can use an arbitrary number of
authentication systems in your L<Catalyst> application and configure
and call all of them in the same way.

Note that both earlier versions of OpenID authentication use the method
C<authenticate_openid()>. This module uses C<authenticate()> and
relies on you to specify the realm. You can specify the realm as the
default in the configuration or inline with each
C<authenticate()> call; more below.

This module functions quite differently internally from the others.
See L<Catalyst::Plugin::Authentication::Internals> for more about this
implementation.

=head1 METHODS

=over 4

=item $c->authenticate({},"your_openid_realm");

Call to authenticate the user via OpenID. Returns false if
authorization is unsuccessful. Sets the user into the session and
returns the user object if authentication succeeds.

You can see in the call above that the authentication hash is empty.
The implicit OpenID parameter is, as the 2.0 specification says it
SHOULD be, B<openid_identifier>. You can set it anything you like in
your realm configuration, though, under the key C<openid_field>. If
you call C<authenticate()> with the empty info hash and no configured
C<openid_field> then only C<openid_identifier> is checked.

It implicitly does this (sort of, it checks the request method too)-

 my $claimed_uri = $c->req->params->{openid_identifier};
 $c->authenticate({openid_identifier => $claimed_uri});

=item Catalyst::Authentication::Credential::OpenID->new()

You will never call this. Catalyst does it for you. The only important
thing you might like to know about it is that it merges its realm
configuration with its configuration proper. If this doesn't mean
anything to you, don't worry.

=head2 USER METHODS

Currently the only supported user class is L<Catalyst::Plugin::Authentication::User::Hash>.

See L<Net::OpenID::VerifiedIdentity> for details.

=head1 CONFIGURATION

Catalyst authentication is now configured entirely from your
application's configuration. Do not, for example, put
C<Credential::OpenID> into your C<use Catalyst ...> statement.
Instead, tell your application that in one of your authentication
realms you will use the credential.

In your application the following will give you two different
authentication realms. One called "members" which authenticates with
clear text passwords and one called "openid" which uses... uh, OpenID.

 __PACKAGE__->config
    ( name => "MyApp",
      "Plugin::Authentication" => {
          default_realm => "members",
          realms => {
              members => {
                  credential => {
                      class => "Password",
                      password_field => "password",
                      password_type => "clear"
                      },
                          store => {
                              class => "Minimal",
                              users => {
                                  paco => {
                                      password => "l4s4v3n7ur45",
                                  },
                              }
                          }
              },
              openid => {
                  consumer_secret => "Don't bother setting",
                  ua_class => "LWPx::ParanoidAgent",
                  ua_args => {
                      whitelisted_hosts => [qw/ 127.0.0.1 localhost /],
                  },
                  credential => {
                      class => "OpenID",
                      store => {
                          class => "OpenID",
                      },
                  },
                  extension_args => [
                      'http://openid.net/extensions/sreg/1.1',
                      {
                       required => 'email',
                       optional => 'fullname,nickname,timezone',
                      },
                  ],
              },
          },
      }
    );

This is the same configuration in the default L<Catalyst> configuration format from L<Config::General>.

             ua_class   LWPx::ParanoidAgent
             <credential>
                 <store>
                     class   OpenID
                 </store>
                 class   OpenID
             </credential>
             <extension_args>
                 http://openid.net/extensions/sreg/1.1
                 required   email

             </extension_args>
         </openid>
     </realms>
 </Plugin::Authentication>

And now, the same configuration in L<YAML>. B<NB>: L<YAML> is whitespace sensitive.

           - required: email
             optional: fullname,nickname,timezone

B<NB>: There is no OpenID store yet.

=head2 EXTENSIONS TO OPENID

The L<Simple Registration|http://openid.net/extensions/sreg/1.1> (SREG) extension to OpenID is supported in the L<Net::OpenID> family now. Experimental support for it is included here as of v0.12. SREG is the only supported extension in OpenID 1.1. It's experimental in the sense it's a new interface and barely tested. Support for OpenID extensions is here to stay.

=head2 MORE ON CONFIGURATION

These are set in your realm. See above.

=over 4

=item ua_args and ua_class

L<LWPx::ParanoidAgent> is the default agent E<mdash> C<ua_class>. You don't
have to set it. I recommend that you do B<not> override it. You can
with any well behaved L<LWP::UserAgent>. You probably should not.
L<LWPx::ParanoidAgent> buys you many defenses and extra security
checks. When you allow your application users freedom to initiate
external requests, you open a big avenue for DoS (denial of service)
attacks. L<LWPx::ParanoidAgent> defends against this.
L<LWP::UserAgent> and any regular subclass of it will not.

=item consumer_secret

The underlying L<Net::OpenID::Consumer> object is seeded with a
secret. If it's important to you to set your own, you can. The default
uses this package name + its version + the sorted configuration keys
of your Catalyst application (chopped at 255 characters if it's
longer). This should generally be superior to any fixed string.

=back

=head1 TODO

Support more of the new methods in the L<Net::OpenID> kit.

There are some interesting implications with this sort of setup. Does
a user aggregate realms or can a user be signed in under more than one
realm? The documents could contain a recipe of the self-answering
OpenID end-point that is in the tests.

Debug statements need to be both expanded and limited via realm
configuration.

Better diagnostics in errors. Debug info at all consumer calls.

Roles from provider domains? Mapped? Direct? A generic "openid" auto_role?

=head1 THANKS

To Benjamin Trott (L<Catalyst::Plugin::Authentication::OpenID>), Tatsuhiko Miyagawa (L<Catalyst::Plugin::Authentication::Credential::OpenID>), Brad Fitzpatrick for the great OpenID stuff, Martin Atkins for picking up the code to handle OpenID 2.0, and Jay Kuri and everyone else who has made Catalyst such a wonderful framework.

L<Menno Blom|http://search.cpan.org/~blom/> provided a bug fix and the hook to use OpenID extensions.
