Jifty::LetMe - A way to expose single-link URLs to your applications
Create a new "LetMe" authentication object; it takes no parameters. It calls "_init" to do any initialization.
A LetMe is a way to provide a one-time-use URL for a particular purpose. All LetMe objects give you a way to validate a user's identity and to allow them a very small set of possible actions or page-access permissions.
For example, you can put a LetMe URL in an email to a new user, so that when they click on the URL you know that their email address is valid.
Called with whatever "new" was called with. By default, does nothing.
Contains an app-specific "user" object.
If the user has presented a valid token, returns an (app-specific subclass of the) Jifty::CurrentUser object for the user who has the email address in $self->email. If no user has that email address, returns undef.
Returns an (app-specific subclass of the) Jifty::CurrentUser object for the user who has the email address ADDRESS.
Returns an authentication checksum for the current combination of:
user path arguments until
Generate a slightly more pronounceable version of the checksum using String::Koremutake. Due to hex -> integer limitations, this is imprecise and may vary depending on the platform it is used on; as such, it is deprecated.
Parse a string of the form
mylongusername@example.com/update_task/23/until/20050101/bekidrikufryvagygefuba
into
email => mylongusername@example.com, path => 'update_task/23' until => 20050101, checksum_provided => bekidrikufryvagygefuba
Returns the "letme" token for this set of credentials. This should round trip cleanly with from_token
A variant of as_token that encodes the user's email address suitably for passing in a URL
Returns the fully qualified URL for this LetMe. It's composed of Jifty->web->url, "base_path" and "as_encoded_token"
By default, all "LetMe" actions live at URLs under '/let' inside your application. Override this subroutine to change that.
By default, it returns '/let/'
Returns true if the credentials the user presented validate OK. Returns false otherwise.
Returns true if the checksum the user provided is correct. Doesn't actually do much input checking. You want to call "validate"
