"""
This pluggable module provides default authentication service based on server
environment. In this case the burden of performing actual authentication is
on the web server used for serving the web interface. The authentication module
then simply uses selected environment variables set up by the server after
successful authentication.

This module also provides interface for automated user account registration. The
registration form is pre-filled with data gathered again from server environment.
The login may not be changed and the value fetched from environment is always used.
Other account attributes like name or email address may be tweaked by user before
submitting the registration form. Administrator and user are both notified via
email about the fact new account was just created.


Environment variables
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Currently following environment variables set up by the HTTP server are supported:

``eppn``,``REMOTE_USER`` (*MANDATORY*)
    The ``eppn`` server variable is set up by the _shibd_ daemon implementing the
    Shibboleth SSO service. The ``REMOTE_USER`` variable is set up by many
    authentication providers. This environment variable is of course mandatory,
    and it is used as an account username (login).

``cn``,``givenName``,``sn`` (*OPTIONAL*)
    The ``cn`` server variable is used to fill in user`s name, when available.
    When not available, user`s name is constructed as contatenation of ``givenName``
    and ``sn`` server variables. When none of the above is available, user has to
    input his/her name manually during registration process.

``perunPreferredMail``,``mail`` (*OPTIONAL*)
    The ``perunPreferredMail`` server variable is used to fill in user`s email
    address, when available. When not available, the first email address from
    ``email`` server variable is used. When none of the above is available, user
    has to input his/her email manually during registration process.

``perunOrganizationName``,``o`` (*OPTIONAL*)
    The ``perunOrganizationName`` server variable is used to fill in user`s home
    organization name, when available. When not available, the value of ``o``
    server variable is used. When none of the above is available, user
    has to input his/her home organization name manually during registration process.


Provided endpoints
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

``/auth_env/login``
    Page providing login functionality via server set environment variables.

    * *Authentication:* no authentication
    * *Methods:* ``GET``

``/auth_env/register``
    User account registration using server set environment variables.

    * *Authentication:* no authentication
