Security
|
|
========
|
|
|
|
There exist use cases which require authentication and authorization against an API at various granularities
|
|
(collections, processes, etc.), restricting access to a given user, group or role. Implementing security
|
|
can be as simple as HTTP basic authentication, or as complex as fine-grained access control against a specific
|
|
collection item.
|
|
|
|
By design, pygeoapi does not have built-in support for access control. It is up to the user to secure pygeoapi
|
|
as required.
|
|
|
|
The following projects provide security frameworks atop pygeoapi:
|
|
|
|
* `fastgeoapi <https://github.com/geobeyond/fastgeoapi>`_
|
|
* `pygeoapi-auth <https://github.com/cartologic/pygeoapi-auth>`_
