http authentication using apiary / api blueprint

Just dipping my toes into Apiary and API Blueprint, and having some problems with passing in some basic http authentication.

On an initial call, the API creates a token for any given user that needs to be used with any subsequent call. My problem is how to mark-up that authentication so it works with the Apiary production request.

The command-line curl (that works) is (in obfuscated code) this...

curl --user [email protected]:tokenGoesHere http://test.server.uri/API/getUserInfo

So, how do I convert that curl command into the equivalent API Blueprint format?

Solution

  • Unfortunately there's no way, at the moment, to specify authentication/authorisation in APIBlueprint.

    It's in the roadmap, but unfortunately we can't give you any precise ETA on that.
