The IBM RTC RESTful api gives an example of a shell script for authenticating with the server:
COOKIES=./cookies.txt
USER=my_user
PASSWORD=my_password
HOST="https://myJazzServer:9092/jazz"
curl -k -c $COOKIES "$HOST/authenticated/identity"
curl -k -L -b $COOKIES -c $COOKIES -d j_username=$USER -d j_password=$PASSWORD "$HOST/authenticated/j_security_check"
This works perfectly, however i need to authenticate with the server using c#.
So far i have the following, but it isn't working:
CookieContainer _cookie;
public string RTC()
{
HttpWebRequest request = (HttpWebRequest)WebRequest.Create("https://myJazzServer.com:9092/jazz/authenticated/identity");
if (_cookie == null)
{
_cookie = new CookieContainer();
}
string a;
request.CookieContainer = _cookie;
using (var response = request.GetResponse())
{
using (StreamReader sr = new StreamReader(response.GetResponseStream()))
{
a = sr.ReadToEnd();
}
}
byte[] data = (new ASCIIEncoding()).GetBytes("j_username=myUser&j_password=MyPass");
request = (HttpWebRequest)WebRequest.Create("https://myJazzServer.com:9092/jazz/authenticated/j_security_check");
request.Method = "POST";
request.ContentType = "text/html";
request.ContentLength = data.Length;
request.CookieContainer = _cookie;
Stream reqStream = request.GetRequestStream();
reqStream.Write(data,0,data.Length);
string b;
using (var response = request.GetResponse())
{
using (var reader = new StreamReader(response.GetResponseStream()))
{
b = reader.ReadToEnd();
}
}
}
Any ideas what the problem is here, is there a .net api?
