class linotp.controllers.BaseController(name, install_name='', **kwargs)

Bases: Blueprint

BaseController class - will be called with every request

before_handler()

Call derived controller’s legacy __before__ method if it exists

This method is called before each request is processed.

default_url_prefix = ''

Suggested URL to access this controller.

The URL at which this controller will be available depends on a number of factors. These are, in order of priority: 1. Any explicit path in the settings CONTROLLERS=ControllerName:PATH 2. The controller’s base_url_prefix setting 3. The name of the controller

jwt_check()

Check whether the current request needs to be authenticated using JWT, and if so, whether it contains a valid JWT access token. The login name from the access token is stored in the request_context[‘AuthUser’] via quering the jwt identity with get_jwt_identiy for the benefit of lib.user.getUserFromRequest().

jwt_exempt = False
parse_requesting_user()

load the requesting user

The result is placed into request_context[‘RequestUser’]
