credentials-plugin code examples

[Cletus D'Souza]

I'm looking to incorporate the credentials-plugin to manage credentials for my own plugin.  Where can I find some basic examples to obtain the following from saved credentials?

1. URI path
2. Username
3. Password

Thanks in advance!

Unless the credential type is one that declares storing this information, you cannot get it

 

2. Username

Any UsernameCredential has a standard method getUsername() to get the username

 

3. Password

Any PasswordCredential has the getPassword() method that returns a secret that has a getPlainText() method 

Thanks in advance!

The basic idea is that the credentials plugin can *store* different kinds of credential and give them back again.

If your credentials do not fit the standard types, extend the closest fit and derive a new type. Then you can store and retrieve those credentials via a standard api and you don't have to keep reinventing the wheel like layering credentials with folders or providing a per-user credentials store.
