doc/todo/openid_user_filtering.mdwn



As mentioned on IRC, I think a cheap form of [[todo/ACL]] can be maintained using OpenID in ikiwiki.
Say I want to limit edits to wiki.webvm.net to users of that machine. For the user 'hendry' I create a http://hendry.webvm.net/ OpenID (which actually delegates to http://hendry.myopenid.com/). And likewise for other users.
So I suggest an ikiwiki configuration like:
 users => ["*.webvm.net"],

Would only allow edits from openIDs of that form.

This kind of thing can be [[done]] now: --[[Joey]]
locked_pages => "user(http://*.webvm.net/)"
