Constant authentication_status == False

[aishworyann]

hi , i was just working with streamlit-authenticator and was making a login page usng config.yaml , but it always outputing the authentication_status as False , however i have done exactly the same as there was in docs. Please help me to resolve this. Also while deploying it on streamlit cloud, it was not getting the credentials from the repo .

[mkhorasani]

Hi @aishworyann, if possible can you please share your source code and perhaps also your config file?

[aishworyann]

Yeah sure @mkhorasani , and thanks for replying sir.Below i am attaching screenshots of the code.

Sir , i have tried using your given default example code too but same thing is happening.

[aishworyann]

Below i have updated the config.yaml file using the hash generated and which i have used after updating the hash value(ignore the upper config file)

[mkhorasani]

If possible please share the source code as a text file, it'll be a lot easier for me to debug it that way. Thanks.

[mnsosa]

I have the same issue.

[mkhorasani]

Can you please share your source code if possible.

Same issue here too, my source code is simple as your readme :

    config = yaml.load(file, Loader=SafeLoader)

authenticator = stauth.Authenticate(
    config['credentials'],
    config['cookie']['name'],

The below code works fine on my end with streamlit-authenticator==0.2.2, can you try this?

Hi @mkhorasani I tried exact same code as yours but still getting None in field name and authentication_status at line <name, authentication_status, username = authenticator.login('Login', 'sidebar')> When I printed these variable I got - name, authentication_status, username - None False buddy sample How to resolve it , please help !!

[GeorgePearse]

I also get:

none, none,

as the values for name, authentication_status, username when. I try to login. Just following the demo, but in a muilt-page app.

Hi @C4rlit0, please ensure that you are providing the name field in the config file for each user.

[mkhorasani]

none, none,

Can you try to read the authentication status value and other values from the session state instead? i.e. authenticaion_status = st.session_state['authentication_status'].

Same as above, can you please try to read the authentication status from the session state, i.e. authentication_status = st.session_state['authentication_status'].

[GeorgePearse]

For me the problem was just that I hadn't yet hashed the password in the config file (but had the original string forms).

I assumed that this would just give me an incorrect password error, but instead just returned none, none, username

[art610]

If I use st.session_state['authentication_status'] instead of name, authentication_status, username = authenticator.login('Login', 'main') (I need to show login and register forms separately), I got after the page reloading authentication_status is None. Go deeper in the streamlit-authenticator code I found that it's bc with login() method will be execute _check_cookie() private method that can get data from token and add it to session state.

def login(self, form_name: str, location: str = 'main') -> tuple:
    ...
    if not st.session_state['authentication_status']:
        self._check_cookie()
        ...

_check_cookie() method is mb improved (cleared from all these nested if's), but below I pass it as-is:

    def _check_cookie(self):
        self.token = self.cookie_manager.get(self.cookie_name)
        if self.token is not None:
            self.token = self._token_decode()
            if self.token is not False:
                if not st.session_state['logout']:
                    if self.token['exp_date'] > datetime.utcnow().timestamp():
                        if 'name' and 'username' in self.token:
                            st.session_state['name'] = self.token['name']
                            st.session_state['username'] = self.token[
                                'username']
                            st.session_state['authentication_status'] = True

And now take a look at last line of code: st.session_state['authentication_status'] = True.

Maybe this will help you

[mkhorasani]

Please see if this problem still persists with the latest release v0.3.2.
