- # Makes it dead easy to do HTTP Basic authentication.
- #
- # Simple Basic example:
- #
- # class PostsController < ApplicationController
- # USER_NAME, PASSWORD = "dhh", "secret"
- #
- # before_filter :authenticate, :except => [ :index ]
- #
- # def index
- # render :text => "Everyone can see me!"
- # end
- #
- # def edit
- # render :text => "I'm only accessible if you know the password"
- # end
- #
- # private
- # def authenticate
- # authenticate_or_request_with_http_basic do |user_name, password|
- # user_name == USER_NAME && password == PASSWORD
- # end
- # end
- # end
- #
- #
- # Here is a more advanced Basic example where only Atom feeds and the XML API is protected by HTTP authentication,
- # the regular HTML interface is protected by a session approach:
- #
- # class ApplicationController < ActionController::Base
- # before_filter :set_account, :authenticate
- #
- # protected
- # def set_account
- # @account = Account.find_by_url_name(request.subdomains.first)
- # end
- #
- # def authenticate
- # case request.format
- # when Mime::XML, Mime::ATOM
- # if user = authenticate_with_http_basic { |u, p| @account.users.authenticate(u, p) }
- # @current_user = user
- # else
- # request_http_basic_authentication
- # end
- # else
- # if session_authenticated?
- # @current_user = @account.users.find(session[:authenticated][:user_id])
- # else
- # redirect_to(login_url) and return false
- # end
- # end
- # end
- # end
- #
- # In your integration tests, you can do something like this:
- #
- # def test_access_granted_from_xml
- # get(
- # "/notes/1.xml", nil,
- # :authorization => ActionController::HttpAuthentication::Basic.encode_credentials(users(:dhh).name, users(:dhh).password)
- # )
- #
- # assert_equal 200, status
- # end
- #
- # Simple Digest example:
- #
- # require 'digest/md5'
- # class PostsController < ApplicationController
- # REALM = "SuperSecret"
- # USERS = {"dhh" => "secret", #plain text password
- # "dap" => Digest:MD5::hexdigest(["dap",REALM,"secret"].join(":")) #ha1 digest password
- #
- # before_filter :authenticate, :except => [:index]
- #
- # def index
- # render :text => "Everyone can see me!"
- # end
- #
- # def edit
- # render :text => "I'm only accessible if you know the password"
- # end
- #
- # private
- # def authenticate
- # authenticate_or_request_with_http_digest(REALM) do |username|
- # USERS[username]
- # end
- # end
- # end
- #
- # NOTE: The +authenticate_or_request_with_http_digest+ block must return the user's password or the ha1 digest hash so the framework can appropriately
- # hash to check the user's credentials. Returning +nil+ will cause authentication to fail.
- # Storing the ha1 hash: MD5(username:realm:password), is better than storing a plain password. If
- # the password file or database is compromised, the attacker would be able to use the ha1 hash to
- # authenticate as the user at this +realm+, but would not have the user's password to try using at
- # other sites.
- #
- # On shared hosts, Apache sometimes doesn't pass authentication headers to
- # FCGI instances. If your environment matches this description and you cannot
- # authenticate, try this rule in your Apache setup:
- #
- # RewriteRule ^(.*)$ dispatch.fcgi [E=X-HTTP_AUTHORIZATION:%{HTTP:Authorization},QSA,L]

- # Uses an MD5 digest based on time to generate a value to be used only once.
- #
- # A server-specified data string which should be uniquely generated each time a 401 response is made.
- # It is recommended that this string be base64 or hexadecimal data.
- # Specifically, since the string is passed in the header lines as a quoted string, the double-quote character is not allowed.
- #
- # The contents of the nonce are implementation dependent.
- # The quality of the implementation depends on a good choice.
- # A nonce might, for example, be constructed as the base 64 encoding of
- #
- # => time-stamp H(time-stamp ":" ETag ":" private-key)
- #
- # where time-stamp is a server-generated time or other non-repeating value,
- # ETag is the value of the HTTP ETag header associated with the requested entity,
- # and private-key is data known only to the server.
- # With a nonce of this form a server would recalculate the hash portion after receiving the client authentication header and
- # reject the request if it did not match the nonce from that header or
- # if the time-stamp value is not recent enough. In this way the server can limit the time of the nonce's validity.
- # The inclusion of the ETag prevents a replay request for an updated version of the resource.
- # (Note: including the IP address of the client in the nonce would appear to offer the server the ability
- # to limit the reuse of the nonce to the same client that originally got it.
- # However, that would break proxy farms, where requests from a single user often go through different proxies in the farm.
- # Also, IP address spoofing is not that hard.)
- #
- # An implementation might choose not to accept a previously used nonce or a previously used digest, in order to
- # protect against a replay attack. Or, an implementation might choose to use one-time nonces or digests for
- # POST or PUT requests and a time-stamp for GET requests. For more details on the issues involved see Section 4
- # of this document.
- #
- # The nonce is opaque to the client. Composed of Time, and hash of Time with secret
- # key from the Rails session secret generated upon creation of project. Ensures
- # the time cannot be modifed by client.

- end
-
- # Might want a shorter timeout depending on whether the request
- # is a PUT or POST, and if client is browser or web service.
- # Can be much shorter if the Stale directive is implemented. This would
- # allow a user to use new nonce without prompting user again for their
- # username and password.
