CAS Server is a Django application implementing the `CAS Protocol 3.0 Specification
<https://apereo.github.io/cas/4.2.x/protocol/CAS-Protocol-Specification.html>`_.

By defaut, the authentication process use django internal users but you can easily
use any sources (see auth classes in the auth.py file)

The defaut login/logout template use `django-bootstrap3 <https://github.com/dyve/django-bootstrap3>`_
but you can use your own templates using settings variables.

Note that for Django 1.7 compatibility, you need a version of
`django-bootstrap3 <https://github.com/dyve/django-bootstrap3>`_ < 7.0.0
like the 6.2.2 version.

Features
--------

* Support CAS version 1.0, 2.0, 3.0
* Support Single Sign Out
* Configuration of services via the django Admin application
* Fine control on which user's attributes are passed to which service
* Possibility to rename/rewrite attributes per service
* Possibility to require some attribute values per service
* Supports Django 1.7, 1.8 and 1.9
* Supports Python 2.7, 3.x

Quick start
-----------
0. If you want to make a virtualenv for ``django-cas-server``, you will need the following
   dependencies on a bare debian like system::

    virtualenv build-essential python-dev libxml2-dev libxslt1-dev zlib1g-dev

   If you want to use python3 instead of python2, replace ``python-dev`` with ``python3-dev``.

   If you intend to run the tox tests you will also need ``python3.4-dev`` depending of the current
   version of python3 on your system.

1. Add "cas_server" to your INSTALLED_APPS setting like this::

    INSTALLED_APPS = (
        'django.contrib.admin',
        ...
        'bootstrap3',
        'cas_server',
    )

   For internatinalization support, add "django.middleware.locale.LocaleMiddleware"
   to your MIDDLEWARE_CLASSES setting like this::

    MIDDLEWARE_CLASSES = (
        ...
        'django.middleware.locale.LocaleMiddleware',
        ...
    )

2. Include the cas_server URLconf in your project urls.py like this::

    urlpatterns = [
        url(r'^admin/', admin.site.urls),
        ...
        url(r'^cas/', include('cas_server.urls', namespace="cas_server")),
    ]

3. Run `python manage.py migrate` to create the cas_server models.


4. You should add some management commands to a crontab: ``clearsessions``,
   ``cas_clean_tickets`` and ``cas_clean_sessions``.

 * ``clearsessions``:  please see `Clearing the session store <https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/stable/topics/http/sessions/#clearing-the-session-store>`_.
 * ``cas_clean_tickets``: old tickets and timed-out tickets do not get purge from
   the database automatically. They are just marked as invalid. ``cas_clean_tickets``
   is a clean-up management command for this purpose. It send SingleLogOut request
   to services with timed out tickets and delete them.
 * ``cas_clean_sessions``: Logout and purge users (sending SLO requests) that are
   inactive since more than ``SESSION_COOKIE_AGE``. The default value for is ``1209600``
   seconds (2 weeks). You probably should reduce it to something like ``86400`` seconds (1 day).

 You could for example do as bellow :

   .. code-block::

      0   0  * * * cas-user /path/to/project/manage.py clearsessions
      */5 *  * * * cas-user /path/to/project/manage.py cas_clean_tickets
      5   0  * * * cas-user /path/to/project/manage.py cas_clean_sessions

5. Start the development server and visit http://127.0.0.1:8000/admin/
   to add a first service allowed to authenticate user agains the CAS
   (you'll need the Admin app enabled).

6. Visit http://127.0.0.1:8000/cas/ to login with your django users.

  the local CAs are in ``/etc/ssl/certs/ca-certificates.crt``. The default is ``True`` which
  tell requests to use its internal certificat authorities. Settings it to ``False`` should
  disable all x509 certificates validation and MUST not be done in production.
  x509 certificate validation is perform upon PGT issuance.

Tickets validity settings:

* ``CAS_TICKET_VALIDITY``: Number of seconds the service tickets and proxy tickets are valid.

Authentication backend
----------------------

``django-cas-server`` comes with some authentication backends:

* dummy backend ``cas_server.auth.DummyAuthUser``: all authentication attempt fails.
* test backend ``cas_server.auth.TestAuthUser``: username, password and returned attributes
  for the user are defined by the ``CAS_TEST_*`` settings.
* django backend ``cas_server.auth.DjangoAuthUser``: Users are authenticated agains django users system.
  This is the default backend. The returned attributes are the fields available on the user model.
* mysql backend ``cas_server.auth.MysqlAuthUser``: see the 'Mysql backend settings' section.
  The returned attributes are those return by sql query ``CAS_SQL_USER_QUERY``.

Logs
----

``django-cas-server`` logs most of its actions. To enable login, you must set the ``LOGGING``
(https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/stable/topics/logging) variable in ``settings.py``.

Users successful actions (login, logout) are logged with the level ``INFO``, failures are logged
with the level ``WARNING`` and user attributes transmitted to a service are logged with the level ``DEBUG``.

For exemple to log to syslog you can use :

.. code-block:: python

    LOGGING = {
        'version': 1,
        'disable_existing_loggers': False,
        'formatters': {
            'cas_syslog': {
                'format': 'cas: %(levelname)s %(message)s'
            },
        },
        'handlers': {
            'cas_syslog': {
                'level': 'INFO',
                'class': 'logging.handlers.SysLogHandler',
                'address': '/dev/log',
                'formatter': 'cas_syslog',
            },
        },
        'loggers': {
            'cas_server': {
                'handlers': ['cas_syslog'],
                'level': 'INFO',
                'propagate': True,
            },
        },
    }


Or to log to a file:

.. code-block:: python

    LOGGING = {
        'version': 1,
        'disable_existing_loggers': False,
        'formatters': {
            'cas_file': {
                'format': '%(asctime)s %(levelname)s %(message)s'
            },
        },
        'handlers': {
            'cas_file': {
                'level': 'INFO',
                'class': 'logging.FileHandler',
                'filename': '/tmp/cas_server.log',
                'formatter': 'cas_file',
            },
        },
        'loggers': {
            'cas_server': {
                'handlers': ['cas_file'],
                'level': 'INFO',
                'propagate': True,
            },
        },
    }
