WARNING
This package is orphaned. You should use the Perl code provided by Duo
instead, since it will be more up-to-date with current features. I no
longer maintain a large Duo deployment, and my current company uses
Python instead. That said, I do still think this package provides a
nicer object framework for the Duo API in Perl; if you agree, please
feel free to adopt it and maintain it!
BLURB
Net::Duo provides an object-oriented Perl interface for the Duo Security
REST APIs. It attempts to abstract some of the API details and provide
an object-oriented view of the returned objects in order to make use of
the API in Perl code more natural than dealing with JSON data structures
directly. Currently, some parts of the Auth and Admin APIs are
implemented alongside with generic methods to call any of the JSON-based
APIs.
DESCRIPTION
Duo Security [1] is a cloud second-factor authentication service that
supports a wide variety of different mechanisms for a user to establish
a second authentication factor. It is intended to supplement local
authentication systems, such as password-based authentication, with an
unrelated second factor: possession of a device, or access to a phone.
Duo Security provides direct integration with a variety of applications
and a self-service web sign-up interface, but for more control, it also
provides several RESTful APIs that can perform all possible actions on
Duo accounts, users, and their devices.

This module implements a client for the Duo REST APIs. It differs from
the sample Perl implementation provided by Duo in that it attempts to
wrap the Duo data model and JSON information in Perl objects and provide
logical and convenient methods on those objects to make writing Perl
clients of Duo simpler and easier. It tries to abstract portions of the
API, such as the endpoint URLs, that allow for more natural and less
cluttered Perl code than manipulating the JSON data structures directly.
The API implementation is currently incomplete and contains just the
calls required by Stanford's integration. Only the Auth and Admin APIs
are implemented, and both are partial. However, the Net::Duo call,
call_json, and call_json_paged methods can be used to make calls to APIs
that aren't fully implemented.
REQUIREMENTS
Perl 5.14 or later and Module::Build 0.28 or later are required to build
this module. The following additional Perl modules are required to use
it:
* JSON
* HTTP::Message
* LWP::UserAgent 6.00 or later (part of libwww-perl)
* Perl6::Slurp
* Sub::Install
* URI::Escape (part of URI)
All are available on CPAN.
BUILDING AND INSTALLATION
Net::Duo uses Module::Build and can be installed using the same process
as any other Module::Build module:
perl Build.PL
./Build
./Build install
You will have to run the last command as root unless you're installing
into a local Perl module tree in your home directory.
TESTING
Net::Duo comes with a test suite, which you can run after building with:
./Build test
If a test fails, you can run a single test with verbose output via:
./Build test --test_files <path-to-test>
The following additional Perl modules will be used by the test suite if
present:
* Test::MinimumVersion
* Test::Perl::Critic
* Test::Pod
* Test::Pod::Coverage
* Test::Spelling
* Test::Strict
* Test::Synopsis
All are available on CPAN. Those tests will be skipped if the modules
are not available.
To enable tests that don't detect functionality problems but are used to
sanity-check the release, set the environment variable RELEASE_TESTING
to a true value. To enable tests that may be sensitive to the local
environment or that produce a lot of false positives without uncovering
many problems, set the environment variable AUTHOR_TESTING to a true
value.
SUPPORT
The Net::Duo web page at:
https://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/software/net-duo/
will always have the current version of this package, the current
documentation, and pointers to any additional resources.
For bug tracking, use the CPAN bug tracker at:
https://rt.cpan.org/Dist/Display.html?Name=Net-Duo
However, please be aware that I tend to be extremely busy and work
projects often take priority. I'll save your report and get to it as
soon as I can, but it may take me a couple of months.
SOURCE REPOSITORY
Net::Duo is maintained using Git. You can access the current source on
GitHub at:
https://github.com/rra/net-duo
or by cloning the repository at:
https://git.eyrie.org/git/perl/net-duo.git
or view the repository via the web at:
https://git.eyrie.org/?p=perl/net-duo.git
The eyrie.org repository is the canonical one, maintained by the author,
but using GitHub is probably more convenient for most purposes. Pull
requests are gratefully reviewed and normally accepted. It's probably
better to use the CPAN bug tracker than GitHub issues, though, to keep
all Perl module issues in the same place.
