in reply to Catalyst Authentication 3rd Party Login Module

It would be more work to make it fit in than to just use the standard Authentication layers. If your user data is already in a database, I'd recommend that. You can do anything you want with Catalyst but the more you stray from community standards, the more you're on your own to figure out how to do it.

    Looks like it may be easiest to make a custom Catalyst::Authentication::Credential module like Catalyst::Authentication::Credential::MyApp and on the quick look it appears you need to make an 'authenticate' method which returns a user object.
