Automatic login

Directly logging in without entering user credentials is possible, but requires configuration on OS level. This makes sense for a user without Administrator permissions, whose permissions are restricted to read-only access on specific objects.

To configure automatic login, create the file /etc/opt/eranger/ui/autologin.cmd with the following content in the SKOOR Engine file system:

event=login&item=login&username=joe&password=secret

Change the username joe and password secret to correspond to the login credentials of an existing SKOOR Engine user. Enter the following URL in the browser:

http://<IP address or host name of SKOOR Engine server>?do=autologin

Jumping to a predefined object after login

To be able to jump to a specific object after logging in, create the file /etc/opt/eranger/ui/navigate-obj.cmd with the following content in the SKOOR Engine file system (templates are available in the same directory):

event=login&item=login
item=bsm&ajax_request=ajax_search&button=navigate

This URL would first prompt for the user’s credentials, then jump to the SKOOR Engine device with ID 43:

http://<IP address or host name of SKOOR Engine server>?do=navigate&type=Device&id=43

This can be combined with an automatic (passwordless) login by replacing the first line of the navigate.cmd file with the line from autologin.cmd.
