Quick Install

1. Install Swauth with sudo python setup.py install or sudo python setup.py develop or via whatever packaging system you may be using.

2. Alter your proxy-server.conf pipeline to have swauth instead of tempauth:

   Was:

   [pipeline:main] pipeline = catch_errors cache tempauth proxy-server

   Change To:

   [pipeline:main] pipeline = catch_errors cache swauth proxy-server

3. Add to your proxy-server.conf the section for the Swauth WSGI filter:

   [filter:swauth] use = egg:swauth#swauth set log_name = swauth super_admin_key = swauthkey

4. Be sure your proxy server allows account management:

   [app:proxy-server] … allow_account_management = true

5. Restart your proxy server swift-init proxy reload

6. Initialize the Swauth backing store in Swift swauth-prep -K swauthkey

7. Add an account/user swauth-add-user -A http://127.0.0.1:8080/auth/ -K swauthkey -a test tester testing
