onovy 04e55d8ec3 When creating account create account in Swift first.
When you try to create account with same suffix as already existed
before, Swift raises error. But SwAuth already created container for
this account in .auth which creates inconsistency.

Swauth

An Auth Service for Swift as WSGI Middleware that uses Swift itself as a backing store. Sphinx-built docs at: http://gholt.github.com/swauth/

See also https://github.com/openstack/keystone for the standard OpenStack auth service.

NOTE

Be sure to review the Sphinx-built docs at: http://gholt.github.com/swauth/

Quick Install

  1. Install Swauth with sudo python setup.py install or sudo python setup.py develop or via whatever packaging system you may be using.

  2. Alter your proxy-server.conf pipeline to have swauth instead of tempauth:

    Was:

     [pipeline:main]
     pipeline = catch_errors cache tempauth proxy-server
    

    Change To:

     [pipeline:main]
     pipeline = catch_errors cache swauth proxy-server
    
  3. Add to your proxy-server.conf the section for the Swauth WSGI filter:

    [filter:swauth] use = egg:swauth#swauth set log_name = swauth super_admin_key = swauthkey

  4. Be sure your proxy server allows account management:

    [app:proxy-server] ... allow_account_management = true

  5. Restart your proxy server swift-init proxy reload

  6. Initialize the Swauth backing store in Swift swauth-prep -K swauthkey

  7. Add an account/user swauth-add-user -A http://127.0.0.1:8080/auth/ -K swauthkey -a test tester testing

  8. Ensure it works swift -A http://127.0.0.1:8080/auth/v1.0 -U test:tester -K testing stat -v

Web Admin Install

  1. If you installed from packages, you'll need to cd to the webadmin directory the package installed. This is /usr/share/doc/python-swauth/webadmin with the Lucid packages. If you installed from source, you'll need to cd to the webadmin directory in the source directory.

  2. Upload the Web Admin files with swift -A http://127.0.0.1:8080/auth/v1.0 -U .super_admin:.super_admin -K swauthkey upload .webadmin .

  3. Open http://127.0.0.1:8080/auth/ in your browser.
