@padraic-shafer are we using this with the pymca tiled integration?
@whs92 no, this was just something I hacked together and wanted feedback on. We'll align more strategically before pushing something that is managing Auth flow.
A widget that uses tiled's auth mechanism to pass a user and password for read only permissions.
Description
The widget does a couple of things: 1 . Creates a tiled
Context
and usesContext.authenticate
to get off the ground.This should provide 2 forms of security: the ability to logout when finished, and the ability to set a timeout for the duration of your work should you forget to logout.
Motivation and Context
Data security. Folks want the operator accounts to be able to persistently run a QT GUI that can read back data from rest. This allows for one user to login for their beam time, and not have their data accessible outside of their experiment.
How Has This Been Tested?
Local env on a Mac, using the example in the PR. Screenshots provided.
