Authentication

Authentication is handled using Configurations.

There are two types of Configurations, TokenConfiguration and OAuthConfiguration.

TokenConfiguration

TokenConfiguration is used if you are using Access Token based Authentication which was obtained through the OAuth Flow

You can initialize a new config as follows:

let config = TokenConfiguration(token: "12345")

After you got your token you can use it with Octokit

VloggerKit(config).categories() { response in
  switch response {
  case .Success(let categories):
    println(categories)
  case .Failure(let error):
    println(error)
  }
}

OAuthConfiguration

OAuthConfiguration is meant to be used, if you don't have an access token already and the user has to login to your application. This also handles the OAuth flow.

You can authenticate an user:

let config = OAuthConfiguration(token: "<Your Client ID>", redirectURI: "<Your redirect uri>", scope: "<Your scope>")
config.authenticate()

After you got your config you can authenticate the user:

// AppDelegate.swift

config.authenticate()

func application(application: UIApplication, openURL url: NSURL, sourceApplication: String?, annotation: AnyObject?) -> Bool {
  config.handleOpenURL(url) { config in
    // do something
  }
  return false
}

Please note that you will be given a TokenConfiguration back from the OAuth flow. You have to store the accessToken yourself. If you want to make further requests it is not necessary to do the OAuth Flow again. You can just use a TokenConfiguration.

let token = // get your token from your keychain, user defaults (not recommended) etc.
let config = TokenConfiguration(token)
VloggerKit(config).categories() { response in
  switch response {
  case .Success(let categories):
    println(categories)
  case .Failure(let error):
    println(error)
  }
}
