It calls \*(L"_init\*(R" to do any initialization. .PP A LetMe is a way to provide a one-time-use \s-1URL\s0 for a particular purpose. All LetMe objects give you a way to validate a user's identity and to allow them a very small set of possible actions or page-access permissions. .PP For example, you can put a LetMe \s-1URL\s0 in an email to a new user, so that when they click on the \s-1URL\s0 you know that their email address is valid. .ie n .SS "_init @_" .el .SS "_init \f(CW@_\fP" .IX Subsection "_init @_" Called with whatever \*(L"new\*(R" was called with. By default, does nothing. .SS "user" .IX Subsection "user" Contains an app-specific \*(L"user\*(R" object. .SS "validated_current_user" .IX Subsection "validated_current_user" If the user has presented a valid token, returns an (app-specific subclass of the) Jifty::CurrentUser object for the user who has the email address in \f(CW$self\fR\->email. If no user has that email address, returns undef. .SS "_user_from_email \s-1ADDRESS\s0" .IX Subsection "_user_from_email ADDRESS" Returns an (app-specific subclass of the) Jifty::CurrentUser object for the user who has the email address \fI\s-1ADDRESS\s0\fR. .SS "generate_checksum" .IX Subsection "generate_checksum" Returns an authentication checksum for the current combination of: .PP .Vb 4 \& user \& path \& arguments \& until .Ve .SS "generate_koremutake_checksum" .IX Subsection "generate_koremutake_checksum" Generate a slightly more pronounceable version of the checksum using String::Koremutake. Due to hex \-> integer limitations, this is imprecise and may vary depending on the platform it is used on; as such, it is deprecated. .SS "from_token \s-1PATH\s0" .IX Subsection "from_token PATH" Parse a string of the form .PP mylongusername@example.com/update_task/23/until/20050101/bekidrikufryvagygefuba .PP into .PP .Vb 4 \& email => mylongusername@example.com, \& path => \*(Aqupdate_task/23\*(Aq \& until => 20050101, \& checksum_provided => bekidrikufryvagygefuba .Ve .SS "as_token" .IX Subsection "as_token" Returns the \*(L"letme\*(R" token for this set of credentials. This should round trip cleanly with from_token .SS "as_encoded_token" .IX Subsection "as_encoded_token" A variant of as_token that encodes the user's email address suitably for passing in a \s-1URL\s0 .SS "as_url" .IX Subsection "as_url" Returns the fully qualified \s-1URL\s0 for this LetMe. It's composed of Jifty\->web\->url, \*(L"base_path\*(R" and \*(L"as_encoded_token\*(R" .SS "base_path" .IX Subsection "base_path" By default, all \*(L"LetMe\*(R" actions live at URLs under '/let' inside your application. Override this subroutine to change that. .PP By default, it returns '/let/' .SS "validate" .IX Subsection "validate" Returns true if the credentials the user presented validate \s-1OK\s0. Returns false otherwise. .SS "_correct_checksum_provided" .IX Subsection "_correct_checksum_provided" Returns true if the checksum the user provided is correct. Doesn't actually do much input checking. You want to call \*(L"validate\*(R"
