property BasicAuthenticationSecurity.credentials : MutableMapping[str, str]

Mapping from username to password. Use individual_roles to grant roles to the users.

​
Example

>>> session_config = tt.SessionConfig(security=tt.SecurityConfig())
>>> session = tt.Session.start(session_config)
>>> session.security.basic_authentication.credentials
{}
Letting a user authenticate through Basic Authentication requires two steps:
  • Granting the required role: 
    >>> session.security.individual_roles["Chen"] = {"ROLE_USER"}
  • Configuring credentials: 
    >>> session.security.basic_authentication.credentials["Chen"] = "Peking"
The password can be changed: 
>>> session.security.basic_authentication.credentials["Chen"] = "Beijing"
But, for security reasons, it cannot be retrieved. Accessing it will return a redacted string: 
>>> session.security.basic_authentication.credentials
{'Chen': '**REDACTED**'}
Revoking access: 
>>> del session.security.basic_authentication.credentials["Chen"]
>>> session.security.basic_authentication.credentials
{}
Cleaning the individual roles to not leave unused keys: 
>>> del session.security.individual_roles["Chen"]
