werkzeug.Authorization

class werkzeug.Authorization(auth_type, data=None)[source]

Represents an Authorization header sent by the client. You should not create this kind of object yourself but use it when it’s returned by the parse_authorization_header function.

This object is a dict subclass and can be altered by setting dict items but it should be considered immutable as it’s returned by the client and not meant for modifications.

Changed in version 0.5: This object became immutable.
