Package org.exoplatform.common.http.client

Class DefaultAuthHandler

java.lang.Object

org.exoplatform.common.http.client.DefaultAuthHandler

All Implemented Interfaces:

AuthorizationHandler

public class DefaultAuthHandler
extends Object
implements AuthorizationHandler

This class is the default authorization handler. It currently handles the authentication schemes "Basic", "Digest", and "SOCKS5" (used for the SocksClient and not part of HTTP per se).

By default, when a username and password is required, this handler throws up a message box requesting the desired info. However, applications can set their own authorization prompter if desired.

Note: all methods except for setAuthorizationPrompter are meant to be invoked by the AuthorizationModule only, i.e. should not be invoked by the application (those methods are only public because implementing the AuthorizationHandler interface requires them to be).

fixupAuthInfo

public AuthorizationInfo fixupAuthInfo(AuthorizationInfo info,
 RoRequest req,
 AuthorizationInfo challenge,
 RoResponse resp)
                                throws AuthSchemeNotImplException

For Digest authentication we need to set the uri, response and opaque parameters. For "Basic" and "SOCKS5" nothing is done.

Parameters:

info - the authorization info retrieved from the list of known info.

req - the request this info is targeted for.

challenge - the authorization challenge received from the server if this is in response to a 401, or null if we are preemptively sending the info.

resp - the full 401 response received, or null if we are preemptively sending the info.

Returns:

the authorization info to be sent with the request, or null if none is to be sent.

Throws:

AuthSchemeNotImplException - if the authorization scheme in the info cannot be handled.

getAuthorization

public AuthorizationInfo getAuthorization(AuthorizationInfo challenge,
 RoRequest req,
 RoResponse resp)
                                   throws AuthSchemeNotImplException,

Parameters:

Returns:

a structure containing the necessary authorization info, or null

Throws:

AuthSchemeNotImplException - if the authentication scheme in the challenge cannot be handled.

IOException - if an exception occurs while processing the challenge

handleAuthHeaders

public void handleAuthHeaders(Response resp,
 RoRequest req,
 AuthorizationInfo prev,
 AuthorizationInfo prxy)
                       throws IOException

prxy - the previous proxy auth info sent, or null if none was sent

Throws:

handleAuthTrailers

public void handleAuthTrailers(Response resp,
 RoRequest req,
 AuthorizationInfo prev,
 AuthorizationInfo prxy)
                        throws IOException

We handle the "Authentication-Info" and "Proxy-Authentication-Info" trailers here.

Specified by:
