Class HttpDigestAuthFilter

java.lang.Object
  org.glassfish.jersey.client.filter.HttpDigestAuthFilter

All Implemented Interfaces:

javax.ws.rs.client.ClientRequestFilter, javax.ws.rs.client.ClientResponseFilter

Deprecated. since 2.5: use HttpAuthenticationFeature instead.

@Provider
public class HttpDigestAuthFilter
extends Object
implements javax.ws.rs.client.ClientRequestFilter, javax.ws.rs.client.ClientResponseFilter

Client filter providing HTTP Digest Authentication with preemptive authentication support.

This filter is deprecated. Use HttpAuthenticationFeature instead.

This filter is the main class that adds a support for Http Digest Authentication on the client. In order to use this filter, create an instance of the filter and register it to the client.

Example:

 // create a filter instance and initiate it with username and password
 final HttpDigestAuthFilter digestFilter = new HttpDigestAuthFilter("adam", "pwd87654");

 // register the filter into the client (in this case using ClientBuilder)
 Client client = ClientBuilder.newBuilder().register(digestFilter).build();

 // make request (authentication will be managed by filter during the request if needed)
 final Response response = client.target("http://example.com/users/adam/age").request().get();
 

Filter firstly tries to perform request without authentication. If authentication is needed and 401 status code is returned, filter use information from WWW-Authenticate header to construct the digest header and retries the request with Authentication header. The Authentication header will be stored for the current URI and used next time with nonce value increased (if nonce is defined). The number of cached URIs can be defined by a property ClientProperties.DIGESTAUTH_URI_CACHE_SIZELIMIT.

Note: The filter must be registered only into the Client. Filter will not work correctly when it is registered to WebTarget, Invocation.Builder or Invocation.

Since:

2.3

HttpDigestAuthFilter

public HttpDigestAuthFilter(String username,
                            String password)

Deprecated.
