Captive portal mock views

The development environment of openwisp-radius provides two URLs that mock the behavior of a captive portal, these URLs can be used when testing frontend applications like openwisp-wifi-login-pages during development.

Note

These views are meant to be used just for development and testing.

Captive Portal Login Mock View

• URL: http://localhost:8000/captive-portal-mock/login/.

• POST fields: auth_pass or password.

This view looks for auth_pass or password in the POST request data, and if it finds anything will try to look for any RadiusToken instance having its key equal to this value, and if it does find one, it makes a POST request to accouting view to create the radius session related to the user to which the radius token belongs, provided there’s no other open session for the same user.

Captive Portal Logout Mock View

• URL: http://localhost:8000/captive-portal-mock/logout/.

• POST fields: logout_id.

This view looks for an entry in the radacct table with session_id equals to what is passed in the logout_id POST field and if it finds one, it makes a POST request to accounting view to flags the session as terminated by passing User-Request as termination cause.
