Is it possible to add a custom web controller in an askbot instance in order to respond to an url and login users using a custom login scheme.
I'm currently trying to add the code in url.py, is there a better place to put the controller's code ?
Also, how can I programmatically create a user and/or authenticate users from a custom controller ?
Yes, but it's better to create a custom authentication backend - please find the corresponding django documentation on the subject.
Perhaps you could find some intro to django for the Rails developer (looks like you're coming from rails?).
In fact, all the code I need is in the openid backend included in askbot. I just need to figure out how to call some parts from my view directly plugged in url.py. No, I don't come from rails.
Ok, what I was searching for was not backend specific at all. I found the answer here : http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2787650/manually-logging-in-a-user-without-password
