NAME
Net::Google::FederatedLogin - Google Federated Login module - see http://code.google.com/apis/accounts/docs/OpenID.html
VERSION
version 0.8.0
SYNOPSIS
Sending user to be authenticated:
my $claimed = 'example@gmail.com';
# or, where example.com is a Google Apps domain
# 'example.com' (bare domain)
# or 'user@example.com' (email address)
# or 'http://example.com/openid?id=[id]' (already known id)
my $g = Net::Google::FederatedLogin->new(claimed_id => $claimed, return_to => 'https://example.com/auth');
my $auth_url = $g->get_auth_url();Verifying the user was correctly authenticated:
my $g = Net::Google::FederatedLogin->new(cgi => $cgi, return_to => 'https://example.com/auth');
my $id = $g->verify_auth();
# $id is the verified identity, or false if it wasn't verified (eg by the user handcrafting the url, or disallowing access)ATTRIBUTES
claimed_id
Required for "get_auth_url": The email address, or an OpenID URL of the identity to be checked.
realm
Optional field that is used to populate the openid.realm parameter. If not provided the parameter will not be used (as opposed to being calculated from the "return_to"" value).
ua
The useragent internally used for communications that the module needs to do. If not provided, a new LWP::UserAgent will be instantiated.
return_to
Required for "get_auth_url" and "verify_auth": The URL the user should be returned to after verifying their identity.
cgi
Required for "verify_auth": A CGI-like object (same param() method behaviour) that is used to access the parameters that assert the identity has been verified. May optionally be replaced by "cgi_params".
cgi_params
Required for "verify_auth" unless "cgi" is supplied: A hashref containing the cgi parameters for verifying the identity.
extensions
Hashref of Net::Google::FederatedLogin::Extension objects (keyed off the extension type URI).
METHODS
get_auth_url
Gets the URL to send the user to where they can verify their identity.
get_openid_endpoint
Gets the unadorned OpenID authentication URL (like "get_auth_url", but doesn't contain values specific to this request (return_to, mode etc))
verify_auth
Checks if the user has been validated based on the parameters in the "cgi" object, and checks that these parameters do come from the correct OpenID provider (rather than having been hand-crafted to appear to validate the identity). If the id is successfully verified, it is returned (otherwise a false value is returned).
get_extension
Retrieve a single Net::Google::FederatedLogin::Extension object, based on the type URI provided. This method is most likely to be useful for handling the response to an OpenID request.
set_extension
Save an extension into the list of extensions for this login object
