Hey everyone, I was looking into Shiro for the past 2-3 days and it seems to be exactly what I'm looking for. I run an Android app with a Java backend on Google App Engine (GAE). Data is exchanged via a restful JSON API. Now I want to introduce Shiro for authentication and authorization. Users should be able to use either facebook login or signup with email and pw the first time they launch die Android app. All backend API calls shall require a token based authentication.
Thanks to https://gaeshiro.appspot.com/ I got Shiro running on my GAE project. On Android I looked into the AccountManager and found a great tutorial (http://udinic.wordpress.com/2013/04/24/write-your-own-android-authenticator/) as well. However, I cannot figure out how to setup Shiro in a way that I can signup a new user or login an existing user from Android, get an auth token in return, and subsequently call my secured API. I would be very very thankful for any pointers (ideally tutorial(s)) as I am a newbie. In case of success, I'm happy to write it all up in a tutorial for everyone else struggling with the same problem. Many thanks in advance, Ralf -- View this message in context: http://shiro-user.582556.n2.nabble.com/Shiro-on-GAE-REST-API-and-Android-user-sign-up-log-in-tp7579007.html Sent from the Shiro User mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
