The only documentation regarding doing authentication for XML-RPC I
can find is -
"Both the HTTP and HTTPS transports support the URL syntax extension
for HTTP Basic Authentication: http://user:pass@host:port/path. The
user
ass portion will be base64-encoded as an HTTP `Authorization'
header, and sent to the remote server as part of the connection
process when invoking an XML-RPC method. You only need to use this if
the remote server requires a Basic Authentication user and password."
- from http://docs.python.org/lib/module-xmlrpclib.html
Is this really the only way to do authentication for XML-RPC calls?
Like this:
server = xmlrpclib.Server('http://adam:fred123@localhost/zidestore/so/
adam/'
This works, but is pretty ugly. Is there no way to setup the
authentication through properties (like in most XML-RPC bindings),
like:
server = xmlrpclib.Server('http://localhost/zidestore/so/adam/'
server.Username = 'adam'
server.Password = 'fred123'
