`class InMemoryCheckerFactory: (source)`

Implements interfaces: `twisted.cred.strcred.ICheckerFactory`, `twisted.plugin.IPlugin`

View In Hierarchy

A factory for in-memory credentials checkers.

This is only of use in one-off test programs or examples which don't want to focus too much on how credentials are verified.

You really don't want to use this for anything else. It is, at best, a toy. If you need a simple credentials checker for a real application, see `cred_file.FileCheckerFactory`.

def generateChecker(self, argstring): (source)
from `twisted.cred.strcred.ICheckerFactory`
This checker factory expects to get a list of username:password pairs, with each pair also separated by a colon. For example, the string 'alice:f:bob:g' would generate two users, one named 'alice' and one named 'bob'.

from `twisted.cred.strcred.ICheckerFactory`
A tag that identifies the authentication method.
