[jopenid-discussion-group] Yahoo namespace

[John]

Hi all,

Thanks for all of your work! A quick, easy recommendation for
jopenid, with code:

For reasons I don't understand, Google uses the default namespace,
while Yahoo uses "ax". Is there a better way to discover the default
namespace? Maybe it would be nice to build this into the
OpenIdManager?

/**
* Get authentication information from HTTP request and key.
*/
public Authentication getAuthentication(HttpServletRequest
request, byte[] key)
{
String claimedId = request.getParameter("openid.claimed_id");
if (claimedId != null && claimedId.contains("yahoo.com"))
{
return getAuthentication(request, key, "ax");
}
else
{
return getAuthentication(request, key,
ExtNamespace.DEFAULT_ALIAS);
}
}

Hi John,

Thank you again for your comment, well try to consider it on our
future releases.

I would just like to know if you happen to use JOpenID on your
projects?
If yes, could you may be share us your experience on it? I would be
delighted to hear your story.

Hi John

I think the latest version already contains "alias" in "openid-providers.properties":

Google = https://www.google.com/accounts/o8/id

Google.alias = ext1

Yahoo = http://open.login.yahooapis.com/openid20/www.yahoo.com/xrds

Yahoo.alias = ax

you can add more providers and use the following code to get alias:

manager.getAuthentication(request, key, endpoint.getAlias());
