Changes

With the {{Code|%perm:allow}} annotation, one or more permission strings can be attached to a RESTXQ function:

(:~ Login page (visible to everyone). :)

declare

An example:

import module namespace Session = 'http://basex.org/modules/session';

There are numerous ways how users can be authenticated in a web application (via OAuth, LDAP, …). The approach demonstrated on this page is pretty basic and straightforward:

* A login check function checks if the typed in data matches one of the database users. If the input is valid, a session id will be set, and the user will be redirected to the main page. Otherwise, the redirection points back to the login page.

* A logout page deletes the session id.

The following lines of code complete the image:

declare

%rest:path("/login-check")
