Firefox Accounts client library for Python
Project description
===========================================================
PyFxA: Python library for interacting with Firefox Accounts
===========================================================
This is python library for interacting with the Firefox Accounts ecosystem.
It's highly experimental and subject to change. Eventually, it is planned
to provide easy support for the following features:
* being a direct firefox accounts authentication client
* being an FxA OAuth Relier
* being an FxA OAuth Service Provider
* accessing attached services
But none of that is ready yet; caveat emptor.
Currently, basic auth-server operations should work like so::
from fxa.core import Client
client = Client("https://api.accounts.firefox.com")
client.create_account("test@example.com", "MySecretPassword")
session = client.login("test@example.com", "MySecretPassword")
cert = session.sign_certificate(myPublicKey)
session.change_password("MySecretPassword", "ThisIsEvenMoreSecret")
There's also very basic integration with restmail.net, to allow for
testing with live email addresses. It works like this:
from fxa.core import Client
from fxa.tests.utils import TestEmailAccount
# Create a testing account using an @restmail.net address.
acct = TestEmailAccount()
client = Client("https://api.accounts.firefox.com")
session = client.create_account(acct.email, "MySecretPassword")
# Verify the account using the code from email.
acct.fetch()
for m in acct.messages:
if "x-verify-code" in m["headers"]:
session.verify_email_code(m["headers"]["x-verify-code"])
...
# Destroy the account once you're done with it.
acct.clear()
client.destroy_account(acct.email, "MySecretPassword")
PENDING

* Initial release.
