--------------------------------
Summary: Make preemptive HTTP authentication pluggable
Key: QPID-6965
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/QPID-6965
Project: Qpid
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Java Broker
Reporter: Keith Wall
Current the HTTP module includes the ability to support a preemptive
{{Basic-Auth:}} authentication. (This is one where the client's request
includes the Basic-Auth header providing correctly encoded credentials allowing
the client's interaction with the Broker to be 'single-shot', without the need
to separately authenticate a session). This is very useful when scripting with
tools such as {{curl}}.
This ability should be generalised so that other types of preemptive
authentication can be supported too. One example would be a OAUTH's bearer
authorization header [https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6750#page-5].
