get_auth_handler

Finds the auth handler for the provided operation name among all the auth handlers defined in this dapp as extensions of auth_handler.

All auth handlers will be in a map<scope: text, _auth_handler>

A scope can be:

• an operation name, in the way it is called from the client: a.b.my_op

• an operation name prefixed with OVERRIDE_PREFIX: OVERRIDE_PREFIX + "a.b.my_op"

• a mount point: a.b

• the value of APP_SCOPE

When calling an operation, the auth handler that will be used is (in this order):

• the auth handler with the operation name as scope, if it exists

• the auth handler with the operation name and OVERRIDE_PREFIX as scope, if it exists

• the auth handler with the closest mount point as scope, if it exists

• the auth handler with the app scope, if it exists

For example, an operation mounted on a.b.my_op will look for, in this order:

• the auth handler with scope a.b.my_op

• the auth handler with scope OVERRIDE_PREFIX + "a.b.my_op"

• the auth handler with scope a.b

• the auth handler with scope a

• the auth handler with the app scope

Throws if op_name is not valid

Throws "MISSING HANDLER" if no auth handler is defined for this operation, nor any mount point above it.
