- this Connection, for chaining
-
auth
Description copied from interface:Connection
Set the authenticator to use for this connection, enabling requests to URLs, and via proxies, that require authentication credentials.The authentication scheme used is automatically detected during the request execution. Supported schemes (subject to the platform) are
basic
,digest
,NTLM
, andKerberos
.To use, supply a
RequestAuthenticator
function that:- validates the URL that is requesting authentication, and
- returns the appropriate credentials (username and password)
For example, to authenticate both to a proxy and a downstream web server:
Connection session = Jsoup.newSession() .proxy("proxy.example.com", 8080) .auth(auth -> { if (auth.isServer()) { // provide credentials for the request url Validate.isTrue(auth.url().getHost().equals("example.com")); // check that we're sending credentials were we expect, and not redirected out return auth.credentials("username", "password"); } else { // auth.isProxy() return auth.credentials("proxy-user", "proxy-password"); } }); Connection.Response response = session.newRequest("https://example.com/adminzone/").execute();
The system may cache the authentication and use it for subsequent requests to the same resource.
Implementation notes
For compatibility, on a Java 8 platform, authentication is set up via the system-wide default
Authenticator.setDefault(Authenticator)
method via a ThreadLocal delegator. Whilst the authenticator used is request specific and thread-safe, if you have other calls tosetDefault
, they will be incompatible with this implementation.On Java 9 and above, the preceding note does not apply; authenticators are directly set on the request.
If you are attempting to authenticate to a proxy that uses the
basic
scheme and will be fetching HTTPS URLs, you need to configure your Java platform to enable that, by setting thejdk.http.auth.tunneling.disabledSchemes
system property to""
. This must be executed prior to any authorization attempts. E.g.:static { System.setProperty("jdk.http.auth.tunneling.disabledSchemes", ""); // removes Basic, which is otherwise excluded from auth for CONNECT tunnels }
- Specified by:
-
auth
in interfaceConnection
- Parameters:
-
authenticator
- the authenticator to use in this connection - Returns:
- this Connection, for chaining
-
onResponseProgress
Description copied from interface:Connection
Set the response progress handler, which will be called periodically as the response body is downloaded. Since documents are parsed as they are downloaded, this is also a good proxy for the parse progress.The Response object is supplied as the progress context, and may be read from to obtain headers etc.
- Specified by:
-
onResponseProgress
in interfaceConnection
- Parameters:
-
handler
- the progress handler - Returns:
- this Connection, for chaining
