Description

ESoupAuthBearer adds libsoup support for the use of bearer tokens in HTTP requests to access OAuth 2.0 protected resources, as defined in

RFC 6750.

An EBackend should integrate ESoupAuthBearer first by adding it as a feature to a SoupSession's SoupAuthManager, then from a SoupSession “authenticate” handler call e_source_get_oauth2_access_token() and pass the results to e_soup_auth_bearer_set_access_token().

Functions

e_soup_auth_bearer_set_access_token ()

void
e_soup_auth_bearer_set_access_token (ESoupAuthBearer *bearer,
                                     const gchar *access_token,
                                     gint expires_in_seconds);

This function is analogous to soup_auth_authenticate() for "Basic" HTTP authentication, except it takes an OAuth 2.0 access token instead of a username and password.

If expires_in_seconds is greater than zero, soup_auth_is_authenticated() will return FALSE after the given number of seconds have elapsed.

Parameters

bearer

an ESoupAuthBearer

 

access_token

an OAuth 2.0 access token

 

expires_in_seconds

expiry for access_token , or 0 if unknown

e_soup_auth_bearer_is_expired ()

e_soup_auth_bearer_is_expired (ESoupAuthBearer *bearer);

Parameters

bearer

an ESoupAuthBearer

 

Returns

Whether the set token is expired. It is considered expired even if the e_soup_auth_bearer_set_access_token() was called set yet.
