[jira] [Updated] (QPID-6965) Make preemptive HTTP authentication
pluggable
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/QPID-6965?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]
Keith Wall updated QPID-6965:
-----------------------------
Description:
Current the HTTP module includes the ability to support a preemptive {{Authorization: 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 {{Authorization: Bearer <token}}. See [https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6750#page-5].
