[jira] Commented: (SHIRO-200) Add ability to configure basic authentication for specific HTTP methods

["Peter Ledbrook (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SHIRO-200?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12921295#action_12921295 ] 

Peter Ledbrook commented on SHIRO-200:
--------------------------------------


I don't have HTTPS svn set up yet, so I attached a patch for review. I
also wanted it reviewed before committing anyway, in case anyone
disagrees with the principle.

Thanks,

Peter

> Currently, if one configures the basic authentication filter for a URL, it is applied to all HTTP methods. However, I'd like the read-only methods (GET, HEAD) to be completely open and only the update methods requiring authentication. Proposed syntax:
> <pre>
> [urls]
> /basic/** = authcBasic[POST,PUT,DELETE]
> </pre>
> I have attached a patch for review.
> BTW, the test case could do with renaming - it doesn't match the name of the class it's testing.
