HTTPS/Authenticated

The goal of this task is to demonstrate HTTPS requests with authentication. Implementations of this task should not use client certificates for this: that is the subject of another task.

Go

The task solution is really the client program, but to test it I wrote a server and created a custom certificate. I won't describe the certificate, but this is the server: <lang go>package main

import (

   "encoding/base64"
   "io"
   "log"
   "net/http"
   "strings"

)

const userPass = "rosetta:code" const unauth = http.StatusUnauthorized

func hw(w http.ResponseWriter, req *http.Request) {

   auth := req.Header.Get("Authorization")
   if !strings.HasPrefix(auth, "Basic ") {
       log.Print("Invalid authorization:", auth)
       http.Error(w, http.StatusText(unauth), unauth)
       return
   }
   up, err := base64.StdEncoding.DecodeString(auth[6:])
   if err != nil {
       log.Print("authorization decode error:", err)
       http.Error(w, http.StatusText(unauth), unauth)
       return
   }
   if string(up) != userPass {
       log.Print("invalid username:password:", string(up))
       http.Error(w, http.StatusText(unauth), unauth)
       return
   }
   io.WriteString(w, "Goodbye, World!")

}

func main() {

   http.HandleFunc("/", hw)
   log.Fatal(http.ListenAndServeTLS(":8080", "cert.pem", "key.pem", nil))

}</lang> It is a "Hello world" server, but over TLS and with basic authentication required on the Get. Errors are logged to aid client debugging.

The client: <lang go>package main

import (

   "crypto/tls"
   "crypto/x509"
   "fmt"
   "io/ioutil"
   "log"
   "net/http"

)

const (

   userid   = "rosetta"
   password = "code"

)

func main() {

   // Use custom certificate for testing.  Not exactly required by task.
   b, err := ioutil.ReadFile("cert.pem")
   if err != nil {
       log.Fatal(err)
   }
   pool := x509.NewCertPool()
   if ok := pool.AppendCertsFromPEM(b); !ok {
       log.Fatal("Failed to append cert")
   }
   tc := &tls.Config{RootCAs: pool}
   tr := &http.Transport{TLSClientConfig: tc}
   client := &http.Client{Transport: tr}
   req, err := http.NewRequest("GET", "https://127.0.0.1:8080", nil)
   if err != nil {
       log.Fatal(err)
   }

   // This one line implements the authentication required for the task.
   req.SetBasicAuth(userid, password)

   // Make request and show output.
   resp, err := client.Do(req)
   if err != nil {
       log.Fatal(err)
   }
   b, err = ioutil.ReadAll(resp.Body)
   resp.Body.Close()
   if err != nil {
       log.Fatal(err)
   }
   fmt.Println(string(b))

}</lang>

Lasso

<lang Lasso>local(username = 'hello',password = 'world') local(x = curl('https://sourceforge.net'))

x->set(CURLOPT_USERPWD, #username + ':' + #password)

local(y = #x->result)

y->asString</lang>

LiveCode

HTTP Basic Auth as part of url <lang LiveCode>command getAuthWebResource

   libURLFollowHttpRedirects true
   libURLSetSSLVerification true
   put URL "https://user:passwd@example.basicauth.com/" into response
   put response

end getAuthWebResource</lang>

You can also set the headers for the basic auth requests <lang LiveCode>command getAuthWebResource

   libURLFollowHttpRedirects true
   libURLSetSSLVerification true
   set the httpHeaders to "Authorization: Basic " && base64Encode("user:passwd")
   put URL "https://example.basicauth.com" into response
   put response

end getAuthWebResource</lang>

  $netloc,
  'CJK-E and Buddhist Dictionaries', # basic realm
  'guest',  # user
  ,       # empty pw

); my $response = $ua->get($netloc);

use WWW::Mechanize qw(); my $mech = WWW::Mechanize->new; $mech->get('https://login.yahoo.com/'); $mech->submit_form(with_fields => {

Tcl

Works with: Tcl version 8.6

for the binary encode subcommand, otherwise uses

Library: Tcllib (Package: base64)

Uses the Tls package. <lang Tcl>package require http package require tls http::register https 443 ::tls::socket

Generate the authentication

set user theUser set pass thePassword dict set auth Authenticate "Basic [binary encode base64 ${user}:${pass}]"

Make a secure authenticated connection

set token [http::geturl https://secure.example.com/ -headers $auth]

Now as for conventional use of the “http” package

set data [http::data $token] http::cleanup $token</lang>

zkl

Using cURL to do the heavy lifting, get a XML list of computers connected to my router. <lang zkl>zkl: var ZC=Import("zklCurl") zkl: var data=ZC().get("http://usr:pw@192.168.1.1/computer_list.xml") L(Data(1,049),121,0) zkl: data[0][121,*].text</lang>

Output:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?>
<computers>
<ip_address0>192.168.1.100</ip_address0><host_name0>core-shot
...
