[jira] [Commented] (CONNECTORS-518) Support for API authorization and security tokens

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CONNECTORS-518?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13448712#comment-13448712 ] 

Maciej Lizewski commented on CONNECTORS-518:
--------------------------------------------

ok... I just did some changes in Wiki connector.
Moved 'security tag' code snippets from WebCrawler to Wiki and added configuration for login, password, domain to API interface.
I will try to provide patches for those changes but I am not sure if they are fully thread-safe, as I had to keep global HttpClient object to properly handle session cookies. Anyway - extensions worked for me in first tests I just did.

> Wiki connector does not support API with restricted access (there is "login" method in API: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/API:Login)
> There is no "security" tab for forced authorization tokens or any other security implemented. There should be at least forced tokens tab or tokens assigned to wiki namespaces (second would be better)
