The MyProxy Delegation Service is a Python implementation of MyProxy OAuth protocol, https://docs.google.com/document/pub?id=10SC7oSURc-EgxMQjcCS50gz0u2HzDJAFiG5hEHiSdxA. The package depends on Flask and SQLAlchemy. The service can be deployed to Apache with mod_wsgi. An examplary configuration file for Apache is in conf/. The file should be copied to /etc/apache2/conf.d/ on Debian-based systems, or to /etc/httpd/conf.d/ on Red Hat-based system.
By default, the service uses SQLite3 database. A path to the database file is set in myproxyoauth/database.py. The directory with the database file must be readable and writable by the 'www-data' user.
To generate web pages, the service uses templates stored in myproxyoauth/templates/. The templates, and other static files stored in myproxyoauth/static/ like images or cascade style sheets can be easily edited and displayed directly in a web browser. The templates are accessible at https://hostname/oauth/templates/, and the static files at https://hostname/oauth/static/.
To use the service with Globus Online, Globus Online that acts here as an OAuth client has to be registered with the service first. To trigger the registration workflow, go to https://hostname/oauth/configure. A Globus Online user specified in the registration form will become an admin of the service.
Prerequisite packages on Debian-based systems:
- python >= 2.5
- python-openssl
- python-flask >= 0.7
- python-sqlalchemy
- libapache2-mod-wsgi
