django authentication .htaccess static
Use python to rewrite the .htaccess automatically?
Use a database with users and use a Apache sessions to authenticate?
In my app users can upload files for other users.
To make the uploaded files accesible only for the addresse I need some kind of static files authentication system.
My idea, is to create the apache hosted directory for each user and to limit access to this derectory using .htaccess.
This means that each time new django user is created, I need to create a directory and the appropriate .htaccess file in it. I know I should do it using post_save signals on User model but I don't know how to create the .htaccess in the user's directory from python level. Can you help me with that?
Or perhaps you have better solution to my problem?
