Support for permissions for anonymous users in django ModelBackend
Model backend that enables permissions for AnonymusUsers. I wanted it to be as simple as possible so anonymous users just forward their permission checks to some fixed user model. This instance can be edited via django admin, assigned to groups, etc. To control which user will represent anonymous user you use ANONYMOUS_USER_NAME setting in settings file. To provide some sensible level of security i enforce following for user that represents anonymous user: * This user must have password equal to UNUSABLE_PASSWORD * This user may not log in * You cant cange password for this user via admin. You need to enable this backend by setting AUTHENTICATION_BACKENDS. Please note that you should not place this backend alongside django ModelBackend. This backend inherits from it.
