Hi,
I have peer-to-peer syncing working between my Mac and iPhone app.
I've currently setup my app so the user can optionally setup a password
that is used to provide authentication info to the CBLListener and
CBLReplicator.
So there are two things I'm doing, one setting the username and password
dictionary on the listener:
[self.syncListener setPasswords:@{self.documentID: self.
syncPasswordFromKeychain}];
according to the docs, this also sets the requiresAuth flag too. And it is
set when I check it.
and then generating a URL that has the username and password in it:
- (NSURL *)peerURLWithSSL:(BOOL)ssl {
NSURLComponents *components = [[NSURLComponents alloc] init];
components.scheme = (ssl ? @"https" : @"http");
components.host = self.service.hostName;
components.port = @(self.service.port);
components.path = [@"/" stringByAppendingString:self.databaseDocument.
documentID];
if (self.databaseDocument.syncPasswordFromKeychain) {
components.user = self.databaseDocument.documentID;
components.password = self.databaseDocument.syncPasswordFromKeychain;
}
return components.URL;
}
However I'm not entirely sure how to validate the passwords so I can
display an error letting the user know they require a valid password. I
implemented the CBLListener delegate passwordForUser: but it never seems to
get called. I've set my class as the delegate for the listener.
According to the documentation:
/** Authenticates a request that uses Basic or Digest authentication.
If this method is not implemented, the `passwords` dictionary
registered with the CBLListener
is consulted instead. **/
I thought if I could implement that method then I could decide if I should
show an error or not. Otherwise, I do have the passwords dictionary also
set as above.
So anyway, if there's some guidance on using basic authentication that
would be great. I have read the Wiki page on certificate authentication,
but I've been trying to make it work with basic authentication over SSL.
I'm using the latest build from master.
Thanks,
Brendan
