582526961,MDU6SXNzdWU1ODI1MjY5NjE=,699,Authentication (and permissions) as a core concept,9599,simonw,closed,0,,,5512395,Datasette 0.44,40,2020-03-16T18:48:00Z,2020-06-06T19:42:11Z,2020-06-06T19:42:11Z,OWNER,,"Right now Datasette authentication is provided exclusively by plugins:

* https://github.com/simonw/datasette-auth-github
* https://github.com/simonw/datasette-auth-existing-cookies

This is an all-or-nothing approach: either your Datasette instance requires authentication at the top level or it does not.

But... as I build new plugins like https://github.com/simonw/datasette-configure-fts and https://github.com/simonw/datasette-edit-tables I increasingly have individual features which should be reserved for logged-in users while still wanting other parts of Datasette to be open to all.

This is too much for plugins to own independently of Datasette core. Datasette needs to ship a single ""user is authenticated"" concept (independent of how users actually sign in) so that different plugins can integrate with it.",107914493,datasette,issue,,,"{""url"": ""https://api.github.com/repos/simonw/datasette/issues/699/reactions"", ""total_count"": 0, ""+1"": 0, ""-1"": 0, ""laugh"": 0, ""hooray"": 0, ""confused"": 0, ""heart"": 0, ""rocket"": 0, ""eyes"": 0}",,completed
