Getting Started

Python

You need Python 2.6. Also, you probably want to run this application in a virtualenv environment.

Run easy_install pip followed by pip install -r requirements/prod.txt to install the required Python libraries.

Django

The Internet has plenty of of documentation on setting up a Django application with any web server. If you need a wsgi entry point, you can find one in wsgi/squirrel.wsgi.

Whitelist

For each website which you want to SSO enable, you'll need to add them to the whitelist.

1. http://localhost:8001/admin

   Login with admin user

2. Client Sites > Click Add

   Note: Don't confuse Sites (i.e., the Django Sites framework) with "Client Sites" (i.e., the SSO Whitelist)... They have very similar inputs and similar names.

3. Enter Details

   Example: Name: PHP Example App Domain: phpclient.secretsquirr.el Match priority: 0
