Now add it to the middleware and authentication backends in your settings. Make sure you also have the authentication middleware installed. Here's an example:
MIDDLEWARE_CLASSES = (
'django.middleware.common.CommonMiddleware',
'django.contrib.sessions.middleware.SessionMiddleware',
'django.contrib.auth.middleware.AuthenticationMiddleware',
...
)
AUTHENTICATION_BACKENDS = (
'django.contrib.auth.backends.ModelBackend',
'django_cas_ng.backends.CASBackend',
)
Set the following required setting in settings.py
:
CAS_SERVER_URL
: This is the only setting you must explicitly define.Set it to the base URL of your CAS source (e.g. https://account.example.com/cas/).
Optional settings include:
CAS_ADMIN_PREFIX
: The URL prefix of the Django administration site. If undefined, the CAS middleware will check the view being rendered to see if it lives indjango.contrib.admin.views
.CAS_EXTRA_LOGIN_PARAMS
: Extra URL parameters to add to the login URL when redirecting the user. Example:CAS_EXTRA_LOGIN_PARAMS = {'renew': true}
CAS_RENEW
: whether passrenew
parameter on login and verification of ticket to enforce that the login is made with a fresh username and password verification in the CAS server. Default isFalse
.CAS_IGNORE_REFERER
: IfTrue
, logging out of the application will always send the user to the URL specified byCAS_REDIRECT_URL
.CAS_LOGOUT_COMPLETELY
: IfFalse
, logging out of the application won't log the user out of CAS as well.CAS_REDIRECT_URL
: Where to send a user after logging in or out if there is no referrer and no next page set. Default is/
.CAS_RETRY_LOGIN
: IfTrue
and an unknown or invalid ticket is received, the user is redirected back to the login page.CAS_VERSION
: The CAS protocol version to use.'1'
and'2'
are supported, with'2'

Make sure your project knows how to log users in and out by adding these to your URL mappings:
(r'^accounts/login$', 'django_cas_ng.views.login'),
(r'^accounts/logout$', 'django_cas_ng.views.logout'),
Users should now be able to log into your site using CAS.
