UserIdResolver Modules
======================

If you need to develop a new useridresolver that is to be loaded into LinOTP, this useridresolver needs to be a Python class, 
that inherits from the Python class UserIdResolver.
Here you may find the minimum set of methods that needs to be implemented here:

   http://linotp.org/api/useridresolverCE/useridresolver.UserIdResolver.UserIdResolver-class.html

For an detailed example, how these methods get implemented, you may consult the interface and implementation of the PasswdIdResolver:

   http://linotp.org/api/useridresolverCE/useridresolver.PasswdIdResolver-module.html

Please note, that new UserIdResolvers need to comply with the AGPLv3 License and need also to be published under the AGPLv3 License.
