adobeio-authentication-java-sample

Simple code that demonstrates how to authenticate against adobe.io using Java. Read the blog article explaining this.

How to use this code

There is some setup that you have to do.

1. Create a "secret.key" file based on the private/public key you made for the Adobe.io integration
2. Copy values from the Adobe.io Console
3. Copy a property ID from the Launch UI
4. Decide whether you want to spy on traffic using Charles or another proxy
5. See notes on Debugging further down
6. Run

Debugging

You can use Charles (or another proxy) to debug traffic between the app and Adobe IO.

Make sure you set the PROXY_HOST and PROXY_PORT constants correctly. The actual choice of using a proxy or not happens when you create the httpClient on line 74 of the AppTest class. Just use the HttpClientBuilder of your choice.

Notes

I am using the Launch API to check whether my access works.

If you want to use any other API, you need to change metaContexts, apiHostFQDN, and apiEndpoint, accordingly.

Code quality: this is the most appalling spaghetti-code I have written in a long time. This was deliberate. I want to show exactly which steps need to be taken in what order.

Feel free to refactor to your standards.
