Detailed Description

A registry / canonical manager of authentication methods.

This is a Singleton class that manages authentication method plugin access.

Loaded auth methods may be restricted using QGIS_AUTHMETHOD_FILE environment variable. QGIS_AUTHMETHOD_FILE is regexp pattern applied to auth method file name (not auth method key). For example, if the variable is set to basic|pkipaths it will load only auth methods basic, and pkipaths.

Note: not available in Python bindings

Member Function Documentation

◆ authMethodList()

QStringList QgsAuthMethodRegistry::authMethodList ( ) const

Returns list of available auth methods by their keys.

Definition at line 315 of file qgsauthmethodregistry.cpp.

◆ authMethodMetadata()

const QgsAuthMethodMetadata * QgsAuthMethodRegistry::authMethodMetadata ( const QString & authMethodKey ) const

Returns metadata of the auth method or nullptr if not found.

Definition at line 298 of file qgsauthmethodregistry.cpp.

◆ createAuthMethod()

QgsAuthMethod * QgsAuthMethodRegistry::createAuthMethod ( const QString & authMethodKey )

Create an instance of the auth method.

Parameters

authMethodKey identificator of the auth method

Returns: instance of auth method or nullptr on error

Parameters

parent	Parent widget
authMethodKey	identificator of the auth method

◆ instance()

QgsAuthMethodRegistry * QgsAuthMethodRegistry::instance ( const QString & pluginPath = QString() )

static

Means of accessing canonical single instance.

Definition at line 239 of file qgsauthmethodregistry.cpp.

◆ setLibraryDirectory()

void QgsAuthMethodRegistry::setLibraryDirectory ( const QDir & path )

Sets library directory where to search for plugins.
