I have a java Appengine application which uses google endpoints frameworks.
I have a set of client ids that consume my api key and those client ids may change in some intervals due to new applications coming up to consume my api.
I need to maintain an array of client ids so that no other user can access my api other than present in my list.
Due to which i need to re-deploy my code to cloud platform each time i add a client id.
"@Api" being an annotation i cannot assign value to it dynamically because annotations are considered at compile time.
So is there anyway that i can add client ids without re-deploying the code again and again?
If you need dynamic client IDs, you need to write a custom Authenticator
, which you will put in your @Api
annotation. You can base it on the existing authenticators. Then, have your authenticator check a dynamic source (e.g. Cloud SQL), rather than the annotation value.
