-------------------------------------
Summary: Identify origiation of requests
Key: SHINDIG-1756
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SHINDIG-1756
Project: Shindig
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Java
Affects Versions: 2.5.0
Reporter: Brian Lillie
Fix For: 2.5.0
In order to determine based upon the request whether to honor the request, or
whether the request should be restricted, the request needs to identify itself
in some way. Some of the requests in the system originate as a result of
direct user requests (e.g. makeRequest) while other requests are performed by
the server for the server or in order to handle the request (e.g. gadget spec
lookups).
The proposal is to better mark the origination of the request either by
attaching an Anonymous Security Token containing the gadget URI, or by marking
the request as an internal request (one that the server is initiating) so that
downstream components (e.g. the HttpFetcher implementation) can make
determinations on how to process the request.
