  import hmac
  from django.shortcuts import render_to_response
  from django.template import RequestContext
  
  def loginAction(request):
      username=request.POST['email']
      password=request.POST['password']
      import httplib, urllib
      params = urllib.urlencode({'username': username})
      #hash username here to authenticate
      digest=hmac.new("qnscAdgRlkIhAUPY44oiexBKtQbGY0orf7OV1I50", str(request.POST['password']),hashlib.sha1).hexdigest()
      auth=username+":"+digest
      headers = {"Content-type": "application/json","Accept": "text/plain","Authorization":auth}
      conn = httplib.HTTPConnection("localhost",8000)
      conn.request("POST", "/api/ecp/profile/", params, headers)
      conn.set_debuglevel(1)
      response = conn.getresponse()
      return response
