Is there a way to bypass the login, such as a guest account?

[David-888]

Hi there,

Is there a way to disable or bypass the login in Turbine, so that the users can
log in as Guest. They may decide to sign up for an account later?
Thanks,

David

You can use Turbine without any user information. The part responsible
is the SessionValidator that you configure in
TurbineResources.properties. Look for TurbineSecurity.getAnonymousUser().

Hi Thomas,

Thanks for the quick reply, could you point me to a tutorial or wiki
page on how to achieve this?
Do I need to override sessionvalidator?
Thanks,

David

I actually need a seamless login as anonymous user,
without entering any password.
Thomas, could you
elaborate on SessionValidator and TurbineSecurity.getAnonymousUser()?
Thanks,

David

Hi Juergen,

The use case would be just like yahoo, you can search and read news, etc.
without signing in.
And you only need to sign in, if you want to, to access your own data,
such as your sports teams,
bookmarks, etc.

Hi David,

screens in Turbine are not secured by Default. Hence it does not require a user to be logged in. You can retrieve a User Object by using DefaultTurbineRunData.getUser() [1]. You can verify if this User Object represents an Anonymous User (one that has not registered) by verifying with TurbineSecurity.isAnonymousUser(User) [2].

Kind regards

Buddy

The starting point would be to use for example TemplateSessionValidator
instead of TemplateSecureSessionValidator.

The difference between the two is that the
TemplateSecureSessionValidator redirects to the login screen when it
detects a null user whereas the TemplateSessionValidator simply
continues with the anonymous user then. If you want to do additional
things in the session validator, you can use the source code of
TemplateSessionValidator to roll your own.

If you have further questions, feel free to ask.

Bye, Thomas.

Thomas and Jurgen,

Thanks for your replies, I'll give the templatesessionvalidator a try
and I think I should use velocityscreen instead of velocitysecurescreen.
