Imports
java.net.URI, java.nio.charset.Charset, .StandardCharsets, java.util.Base64, org.eclipse.jetty.http.HttpHeader, org.eclipse.jetty.util.Attributes
Implementation of the HTTP "Basic" authentication defined in RFC 2617.

Applications should create objects of this class and add them to the AuthenticationStore retrieved from the HttpClient via HttpClient#getAuthenticationStore().

public Authentication.Result authenticate(Request request, ContentResponse response, Authentication.HeaderInfo headerInfo, Attributes context)

Implements org.eclipse.jetty.client.Authentication.authenticate.

Doc from org.eclipse.jetty.client.Authentication.authenticate.

Executes the authentication mechanism for the given request, returning a Result that can be used to actually authenticate the request via Authentication.Result#apply(Request).

If a request for "/secure" returns a Result, then the result may be used for other requests such as "/secure/foo" or "/secure/bar", unless those resources are protected by other realms.

Parameters
request:Request

the request to execute the authentication mechanism for

response:ContentResponse

the 401 response obtained in the previous attempt to request the protected resource

headerInfo:Authentication.HeaderInfo

the WWW-Authenticate (or Proxy-Authenticate) header chosen for this authentication (among the many that the response may contain)

context:Attributes

the conversation context in case the authentication needs multiple exchanges to be completed and information needs to be stored across exchanges

Returns:Authentication.Result

the authentication result, or null if the authentication could not be performed

All Implemented Interfaces
org.eclipse.jetty.client.Authentication.Result
Basic authentication result.

Application may utilize this class directly via AuthenticationStore#addAuthenticationResult(Result) to perform preemptive authentication, that is immediately sending the authorization header based on the fact that the URI is known to require authentication and that username and password are known a priori.
