=head1 NAME

Rubric::WebApp::Login - web login processing

=head1 VERSION

version 0.152

=head1 DESCRIPTION

This module checks for information needed to confirm that a user is logged into
the Rubric.

=head1 METHODS

=head2 Rubric::WebApp::Login->check_for_login($webapp)

This method is called by the WebApp's C<cgiapp_init>, and checks for a login
attempt in the submitted request.  

It looks for a login username by calling C<get_login_username>, then converts
the login name to a Rubric name by calling C<map_username> and returns
immediately if the name can't be shown valid by calling C<valid_username>.

It retrieves the User object by calling C<get_login_user> or, if needed,
C<autocreate_user>, and returns if it can't get a User object.  It tries to
authenticate by calling C<authenticate_login>.  If the user is authorized but
isn't verified, he won't be logged in and the C<user_pending> parameter will be
set on the Rubric::WebApp object.  Otherwise, he will be logged in with
C<set_current_user>.

Most of the methods above are virtual methods in this class, and should be
implemented in subclasses.  The bundled L<Rubric::WebApp::Login::Post> (the
default) and L<Rubric::WebApp::Login::HTTP> serve as examples.

=head2 get_login_username($webapp)

This method returns the login username taken from the request.  It is not
necessarily the name of a Rubric user (see C<map_username>).

This must be implemented by the login subclass.

=head2 map_username($username)

This method returns the Rubric username to which the login name maps.  By
default, it returns the C<$username> verbatim.

=head2 valid_username($username)

Returns a true or false value, depending on whether the given username string
is a valid username.

=head2 get_login_user($username)

Given a username, this method returns the Rubric::User object for the user.

=head2 autocreate_user($username)

If C<get_login_user> can't find a user, this method is called to try to create
the user automatically.  By default, it always returns nothing.  It may be
subclassed for implementation.  (For example, one could create domain users
from a directory.)

=head2 authenticate_login($webapp, $user)

This method attempts to authenticate the user's login, checking the given
password or performing any other needed check.  It returns true or false.

This must be implemented by the login subclass.

=head2 set_current_user($webapp, $user)

This method sets the current user on the WebApp by setting the WebApp's
"current_user" attribute to the Rubric::User object.
