"""OpenID server protocol and logic.

Overview
========

    An OpenID server must perform three tasks:

        1. Examine the incoming request to determine its nature and validity.

        2. Make a decision about how to respond to this request.

        3. Format the response according to the protocol.

    The first and last of these tasks may performed by
    the L{decodeRequest<Server.decodeRequest>} and
    L{encodeResponse<Server.encodeResponse>} methods of the
    L{Server} object.  Who gets to do the intermediate task -- deciding
    how to respond to the request -- will depend on what type of request it
    is.

    If it's a request to authenticate a user (a X{C{checkid_setup}} or
    X{C{checkid_immediate}} request), you need to decide if you will assert
    that this user may claim the identity in question.  Exactly how you do
    that is a matter of application policy, but it generally involves making
    sure the user has an account with your system and is logged in, checking
    to see if that identity is hers to claim, and verifying with the user that
    she does consent to releasing that information to the party making the
    request.

    Examine the properties of the L{CheckIDRequest} object, optionally
    check L{CheckIDRequest.returnToVerified}, and and when you've come
    to a decision, form a response by calling L{CheckIDRequest.answer}.

    Other types of requests relate to establishing associations between client
    and server and verifying the authenticity of previous communications.
    L{Server} contains all the logic and data necessary to respond to
    such requests; just pass the request to L{Server.handleRequest}.


OpenID Extensions
=================

    Do you want to provide other information for your users
    in addition to authentication?  Version 2.0 of the OpenID
    protocol allows consumers to add extensions to their requests.
    For example, with sites using the U{Simple Registration
    Extension<http://openid.net/specs/openid-simple-registration-extension-1_0.html>},
    a user can agree to have their nickname and e-mail address sent to a
    site when they sign up.

    Since extensions do not change the way OpenID authentication works,
    code to handle extension requests may be completely separate from the
    L{OpenIDRequest} class here.  But you'll likely want data sent back by
    your extension to be signed.  L{OpenIDResponse} provides methods with
    which you can add data to it which can be signed with the other data in
    the OpenID signature.

    For example::

        # when request is a checkid_* request
        response = request.answer(True)
        # this will a signed 'openid.sreg.timezone' parameter to the response
        # as well as a namespace declaration for the openid.sreg namespace
        response.fields.setArg('http://openid.net/sreg/1.0', 'timezone', 'America/Los_Angeles')

    There are helper modules for a number of extensions, including
    L{Attribute Exchange<openid.extensions.ax>},
    L{PAPE<openid.extensions.pape>}, and
    L{Simple Registration<openid.extensions.sreg>} in the L{openid.extensions}
    package.

Stores
======

    The OpenID server needs to maintain state between requests in order
    to function.  Its mechanism for doing this is called a store.  The
    store interface is defined in C{L{openid.store.interface.OpenIDStore}}.
    Additionally, several concrete store implementations are provided, so that
    most sites won't need to implement a custom store.  For a store backed
    by flat files on disk, see C{L{openid.store.filestore.FileOpenIDStore}}.
    For stores based on MySQL or SQLite, see the C{L{openid.store.sqlstore}}
    module.


Upgrading
=========

From 1.0 to 1.1
---------------

    The keys by which a server looks up associations in its store have changed
    in version 1.2 of this library.  If your store has entries created from
    version 1.0 code, you should empty it.

From 1.1 to 2.0
---------------

    One of the additions to the OpenID protocol was a specified nonce
    format for one-way nonces.  As a result, the nonce table in the store
    has changed.  You'll need to run contrib/upgrade-store-1.1-to-2.0 to
    upgrade your store, or you'll encounter errors about the wrong number
    of columns in the oid_nonces table.

    If you've written your own custom store or code that interacts
    directly with it, you'll need to review the change notes in
    L{openid.store.interface}.
