* Package name : django-stronghold Version : 0.2.7 Upstream Author : Mike Grouchy <mgrou...@gmail.com> * URL : https://github.com/mgrouchy/django-stronghold * License : Expat Programming Lang: Python Description : Django app to make all views default login_required Stronghold is a very small and easy to use Django app that makes all your Django project default to require login for all of your views. Motivation: FreedomBox's administration web interface uses Django. A couple of time we found ourselves with code missing the @login_required decorator. If such mistake ever goes public it is a serious security error allow people to modify their system without login. We decided make login_required the default rather the opposite. At first we wrote a small custom solution but after seeing a need to improve it and find this Django app we decided to use it. There is currently a merge request pending needs this package. Similar packages: As far as I have looked, there is no upstream or Debian package providing similar functionality. Maintenance plan: I plan to maintain it as part of the collab-maint team. This package will also be cared for as part of the FreedomBox effort as it will be used there. I contacted the upstream author with a patch to provide Python 3 and Django 1.7 support. I got an immediate merge of patch, new release and an offer to help in case the Debian packaging effort requires any. There is small (expected for a small project like this) but recent activity on the upstream project indicating its good health. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
