func LoginURLFederated(c appengine.Context, dest, identity string) (string, error)

LoginURLFederated is like LoginURL but accepts a user's OpenID identifier.

LogoutURL returns a URL that, when visited, signs the user out, then redirects the user to the URL specified by dest.

Types

type User

type User struct {
	Email      string
	AuthDomain string

	// ID is the unique permanent ID of the user.
	// It is populated if the Email is associated
	// with a Google account, or empty otherwise.

}

User represents a user of the application.

func Current
