Jasper van Veghel commented on NUTCH-827: ----------------------------------------- Hi Max, I'm sorry, but I don't really use the patch anymore, so I wouldn't be able to tell you. We used it in conjunction with an internal SAP system that we needed to spider, so that's not a public source you could try it against. Why not write up your own quick script which lets you POST some data, sets a cookie, and then returns some specific piece of data only when that cookie is set? Good luck! Jasper > HTTP POST Authentication > ------------------------ > > Key: NUTCH-827 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NUTCH-827 > Project: Nutch > Issue Type: New Feature > Components: fetcher > Affects Versions: 1.1, nutchgora > Reporter: Jasper van Veghel > Priority: Minor > Labels: authentication > Fix For: 1.6 > > Attachments: nutch-http-cookies.patch > > > I've created a patch against the trunk which adds support for very > rudimentary POST-based authentication support. It takes a link from > nutch-site.xml with a site to POST to and its respective parameters > (username, password, etc.). It then checks upon every request whether any > cookies have been initialized, and if none have, it fetches them from the > given link. > This isn't perfect but Works For Me (TM) as I generally only need to retrieve > results from a single domain and so have no cookie overlap (i.e. if the > domain cookies expire, all cookies disappear from the HttpClient and I can > simply re-fetch them). A natural improvement would be to be able to specify > one particular cookie to check the expiration-date against. If anyone is > interested in this beside me I'd be glad to put some more effort into making > this more universally applicable. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
