LDAP user registration and admin user about flask-appbuilder HOT 6 CLOSED

Hello,

You can:

• Use the config key AUTH_USER_REGISTRATION_ROLE to set the role to be assigned to self registration users.
• Like you've said i'm using local db first to register Admin users to use with OpenID or LDAP or REMOTE_USER.

I've been thinking about providing a simple admin script to help setup some features, like this one.
something like manager.py with some functions like create_admin.

What do you think?

Hi Daniel,

I think having a create_admin script would be very helpful to get that first administrator user created. Then that admin can set the roles of other users who should have admin access. I wonder if there needs to be a superadmin that cannot be edited by anyone. This would be a good way to insure that other admins do not accidentally change the role of that first admin user. I think wikipedia has some tired user roles?

I recently read about click and it might suitable for manager.py:

thank you and Happy New Year!

I found this also: http://flask.pocoo.org/docs/dev/cli/

This could be very interesting.

New version will have a command line utility to do it.

You will be able to:

Create a fresh app
Create Admin users
Reset User passwords
Babel extract
Babel Compile
Run dev server

(and maybe some more).

Awesome! Thank you.
