NAME
       Catalyst::Authentication::Credential::NoPassword - Authenticate a user without a password.

SYNOPSIS
	   use Catalyst qw/
	     Authentication
	     /;

	   package MyApp::Controller::Auth;

	   sub login_as_another_user : Local {
	       my ($self, $c) = @_;

	       if ($c->user_exists() and $c->user->username() eq 'root') {
		   $c->authenticate( {id => c->req->params->{user_id}}, 'nopassword' );
	       }
	   }

DESCRIPTION
       This authentication credential checker takes authentication information (most often a username) and retrieves the user from the store. No
       validation of any credentials is done. This is intended for administrative backdoors, SAML logins and so on when you have identified the
       new user by other means.

CONFIGURATION
	   # example
	   <Plugin::Authentication>
	       <nopassword>
		   <credential>
		       class = NoPassword
		   </credential>
		   <store>
		       class = DBIx::Class
		       user_model = DB::User
		       role_relation = roles
		       role_field = name
		   </store>
	       </nopassword>
	   </Plugin::Authentication>

METHODS
   authenticate ( $c, $realm, $authinfo )
       Try to log a user in.
