Subject: requires_login(next='')

In t2 you could do:

@t2.requires_login(next='login') 

In tools.py

@auth.requires_login(next='../authtool/login')

doesn't work:

TypeError: requires_login() got an unexpected keyword argument 'next'

What's the equivalent of t2.requires_login(next='login') in tools.py?

In the online documentation I read:

    In your controller (for example in default.py) expose the auth

object (for example via a user action)

I created a controller authtool and defined the actions like this:

def register():

    return dict(form=auth.register())

def login():

    return dict(form=auth.login(next='../crudtool/index'))

....

Furthermore I created a controller crudtool in which I will define

crud actions. When I expose the index function in crudtool:

@auth.requires_login()

def index():

    return dict(message="hello from crudtool.py")

it redirects to: http://127.0.0.1:8000/mock/crudtool/user/login, but

there is no function user and args login. Whereas it should redirect

me to http://127.0.0.1:8000/mock/authtool/login I thought I would

solve this using the next attribute... 

Kind regards,

Annet
