Sign up?

[dtygel]

Hi folks, another question: do you envisage to include some process allowing users to create an account and become a submitter, through a sign up process?

Hi @dtygel, generally NEMO has been used by organizations that set up their users in advance, so this hasn't been necessary. Do you mind explaining a bit more about how this would benefit you?

In a more loosely organized group it would be useful to give people more options to self-administer their account or at least request an account easily from a webinterface.

Also useful might be to add an Oauth2 registration and login flow to easily link accounts to an existing user-database. Ruby has good support for this: https://github.com/omniauth/omniauth-oauth2
LDAP support could also be added via onmiauth.

Thanks @poVoq, this sounds useful. We generally depend on funding for every feature we develop, so we are unlikely to implement this ourselves, but if you send in a well-documented pull request including spec coverage, I would be happy to review it. The feature would need to be optional and completely disabled by default for data security.

Alternatively, you are welcome to fork the project and develop this yourself however you see fit!
