Drupal

Shawn Tan's Drupal module. Updated by David Newgas.

Objective

This Drupal module was created to allow any website that uses Drupal, to authenticate via Raven. The module runs fine on 6.x versions of Drupal (tested up to 6.2).

Installation

Un-tar the module into your Drupal's "module" directory. It will be placed in a "ucamraven" sub-directory.

Login as the administrator for your Drupal based site.

• Go to /user/1/edit and ensure the admin account is a CRSID.

• Click on admin => modules. Enable the "ucamraven" module.

• Click on admin => menus => navigation. Uncheck the "Log out" item to disable non-raven authentication·

User Login

Any user that clicks on the "raven login" link in the main menu will be redirected to the standard Raven login page. Once the user has authenticated with Raven, the user will be redirected back to the original website.

If no user account exists for that CRSID, one will be created.

Admin Login

The admin account must be a CRSID to log in using the raven system. Administrators with non CRSID account names can by-pass the Raven login by explicitly using the standard Drupal login page "user/login".

License

This module is released under GPLv2. A copy of the license is included in the module package.
