Clientside GitHub Authentication

问题

I'm using a Javascript to do Basic Authentication with GitHub. For example, the following shell command gets a token from Github:

    curl -i -u uaername:password -k -d "{\"scopes\": [\"repo\"]}" https://api.github.com/authorizations

How do you achieve that with jQuery and AJAX?

回答1:

Including Basic Auth Data in HTTP Headers with jQuery

You can include basic auth details in the header using the Authorization field. You already understand how jQuery works. This snippet has the bits you're missing:

    let auth = btoa(username + ":" + password);

    jQuery.ajax({
        url: ...,
        headers: { Authorization: "Basic " + auth }
        ...
    });

Note: btoa and atob (pronounced B to A and A to B) are builtin functions, and convert to and from Base64. See the MDN docs for more information.

Are you asking whether there is a way to get an oAuth token purely from the client side? If so, the answer is no.

But, you have some work arounds.

Github.js: https://github.com/michael/github

Gatekeeper is an open source server side component which can help with oAuth tokens management:

You could also use something like Firebase with simple login and in this case you don't need to manage any server side services:
