``repoze.who`` is an identification and authentication framework |
30b996
|
15 |
for arbitrary WSGI applications. ``repoze.who`` can be configured |
TS |
16 |
either as WSGI middleware or as an API for use by an application. |

``repoze.who`` is inspired by Zope 2's Pluggable Authentication |
TS |
19 |
Service (PAS) (but ``repoze.who`` is not dependent on Zope in any |
25ac2e
|
20 |
way; it is useful for any WSGI application). It provides no facility |
CM |
21 |
for authorization (ensuring whether a user can or cannot perform the |
|
22 |
operation implied by the request). This is considered to be the |
|
23 |
domain of the WSGI application. |
