What is iw.rejectanonymous ?

This package is made to reject unconditionnally anonymous users from a plone site; they should get redirected by plone to login form. The basic use case is an extranet, where all visitors must be authenticated.

How to use iw.rejectanonymous ?

By default an anonymous user can browse portal:

>>> portal_url = self.portal.absolute_url()
>>> browser.open(portal_url)
>>> browser.url == portal_url
True
>>> browser.headers['status']
'200 OK'

We mark the portal with IPrivateSite; this can be achieved by code or in the ZMI using “Interfaces” tab on the portal object. Now Anonymous will get Unauthorized exception. In a plone site this should results in a redirect to login form.

>>> from zope.interface import alsoProvides
>>> from iw.rejectanonymous import IPrivateSite
>>> alsoProvides(self.portal, IPrivateSite)
>>> browser.open(portal_url)
Traceback (most recent call last):
...
Unauthorized: ...

Login form and some styles ressources are still accessible:

>>> login_form_url = self.portal.login_form.absolute_url()
>>> browser.open(login_form_url)
>>> browser.url == login_form_url
True
>>> require_login_url = self.portal.require_login.absolute_url()
>>> browser.open(require_login_url)
>>> browser.url == require_login_url
True
>>> cooked_css = self.portal.portal_css.getCookedResources()[0]
>>> cooked_css_url = '%s/portal_css/%s' % (portal_url, cooked_css.getId())
>>> browser.open(cooked_css_url)
>>> browser.url == cooked_css_url
True
>>> cooked_js = self.portal.portal_javascripts.getCookedResources()[0]
>>> cooked_js_url = '%s/portal_javascripts/%s' % (portal_url, cooked_js.getId())
>>> browser.open(cooked_js_url)
>>> browser.url == cooked_js_url
True
>>> logo_id = self.portal.base_properties.getProperty('logoName')
>>> logo_url = self.portal[logo_id].absolute_url()
>>> browser.open(logo_url)
>>> browser.url == logo_url
True

Then we log in, and we will be authorized to browse the portal

>>> from Products.PloneTestCase.setup import default_user, default_password
>>> browser.addHeader('Authorization',
...                   'Basic %s:%s' % (default_user, default_password))
>>> browser.open(portal_url)
>>> browser.url == portal_url
True
>>> browser.headers['status']
'200 OK'
