Share Session between Play framework and Django
If you use a standard SSO mechanism, it should be managed by the mechanism itself...
The webserver (Django or Play) should redirect the user to the authentication page of the SSO server. The SSO server generates a token and sent it back to the client (in a cookie for example) and redirects the client to the webserver (Django or Play) which can itself validate the authentication with the SSO server using the given token. This token is then used between the client and the web servers until the end of authentication session.
So as arjan explained, you should share this token in a cookie for example and both web servers (django and play) should be able to manage it.
How can I create a single sign on application that will let me move from one section of my site to another. One section of my site uses play framework and the other is on django. My SSO know-how is very limited so be nice to me :)
