Method Details

[hide private]

add_metadata(environ, identity)

source code

Add metadata to the identity (which is a dictionary). One value is always guaranteed to be in the dictionary when add_metadata is called: 'repoze.who.userid', representing the user id of the identity. Availability and composition of other keys will depend on the identifier plugin which created the identity.
