It is possible that the self._pwfunc() call returns a callable. For
instance, if the keyutils.osc.OscKernelKeyringBackend is configured
in the oscrc. Hence, check in credentials._LazyPassword.__str__
if the returned password is a callable and, if so, call it. Moreover,
a deprecation warning is printed. Eventually, this compat code will
be removed again.
This is a follow-up commit for commit
784d330f20 ("Only prompt for a password
if the server asks for it") (actually, it is a regression that was
not caught during the review...).
In many cases the session cookie is already available, so there
is no need to ask for a password. To make this work with the
python authentication implementation, we add a small proxy object
for the password and only ask the credential manager if the
stringify method is called.
This approach also makes it possible to offer a non-password based
authorization type if the server allows multiple authentication
methods.
Existing passx enries resulted in a stacktrace because
the cp.get() call for the passx entries was missing.
Also added a delete_password function for ObfuscatedPasswordManager
to delete passx entries
If a python-keyring based backend is configured, but
python-keyring is not installed osc fails without giving
the user the opportunity to continue.
This introduces a new class method `create` for the AbstractCredentialsManager.
The CredentialsManagers for the backends that use a 3rd party software can
now check if the software is present in its own create method.
* new module credentials.py which contains classes
and methods to set and get passwords for different
backends:
- python-keyring
- gnomekeyring
- ConfigFile based storage
The new code should be backward compatible except a minor
change in add_section (pass and passx are not removed from
the config parser). This affects only callers that do not pass
a creds_mgr_descriptor.
On initial osc call or initial osc call on new API Url
the user now can decide where to store the password (based
on the backends available on his system)
