-----------------------------------
> HttpContext implementation which supports BASIC auth.
> -----------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: FELIX-2751
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FELIX-2751
> Project: Felix
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: HTTP Service
> Reporter: Tamas Cserveny
> Attachments: AuthHttpContext.java, BasicAuthHttpContext.java
>
>
> I've tried to implement the basic authentication scheme for a servlet in my
> project. It was obvious, that I'll need to use HttpContext for that, but I
> felt that something like the basic auth or digest should be included in the
> system by default.
> I did not found anything on the net about an OSGi HttpContext implementing
> BasicAuth so I created a very basic one. The only thing it supports is
> authentication against a static list of users.
> You'll need to extend it and read the users from somewhere. It may need lot
> of polishing as currently the users are stored in a map inside the context,
> but should be extracted to some kind of Realm object and let the
> authentication/authorization be done there. But this would have been an
> overkill for my purpose.
> Example:
> @Component
> @Service
> @Property(name="contextId", value="VIRIF")
> public class VIRHttpContext extends BasicAuthHttpContext {
> public VIRHttpContext() {
> super( "VIRIF" );
> loadUserAndPassword( );
> }
> ...
> }
> and then annotate the servlet:
> @Component
> @Service
> @Properties({
> @Property(name = "alias", value = "/vir"),
> @Property(name = "contextId", value = "VIRIF")
> })
> public class SecuredCommandServlet extends HttpServlet {
> }
> ps. The examples uses the whiteboard bundle and the SCR maven plugin. The
> implementation uses commons lang and codec. Maybe they can be refactored out.
