{{task|Networking and Web Interaction}}
The goal of this task is to demonstrate [[HTTPS request]]s with authentication. Implementations of this task should not use client certificates for this: that is the subject of [[Client-Authenticated HTTPS Request|another task]].

The task solution is really the client program, but to test it I wrote a server and created a custom certificate. I won't describe the certificate, but this is the server:
package main
import (
"encoding/base64"
"io"
"log"
"net/http"
"strings"
)
const userPass = "rosetta:code"
const unauth = http.StatusUnauthorized
func hw(w http.ResponseWriter, req *http.Request) {
auth := req.Header.Get("Authorization")
if !strings.HasPrefix(auth, "Basic ") {
log.Print("Invalid authorization:", auth)
http.Error(w, http.StatusText(unauth), unauth)
return
}
up, err := base64.StdEncoding.DecodeString(auth[6:])
if err != nil {
log.Print("authorization decode error:", err)
http.Error(w, http.StatusText(unauth), unauth)
return
}
if string(up) != userPass {
log.Print("invalid username:password:", string(up))
http.Error(w, http.StatusText(unauth), unauth)
return
}
io.WriteString(w, "Goodbye, World!")
}
func main() {
http.HandleFunc("/", hw)
log.Fatal(http.ListenAndServeTLS(":8080", "cert.pem", "key.pem", nil))
}
It is a "Hello world" server, but over TLS and with basic authentication required on the Get. Errors are logged to aid client debugging.
The client:
package main
import (
"crypto/tls"
"crypto/x509"
"fmt"
"io/ioutil"
"log"
"net/http"
)
const (
userid = "rosetta"
password = "code"
)
func main() {
// Use custom certificate for testing. Not exactly required by task.
b, err := ioutil.ReadFile("cert.pem")
if err != nil {
log.Fatal(err)
}
pool := x509.NewCertPool()
if ok := pool.AppendCertsFromPEM(b); !ok {
log.Fatal("Failed to append cert")
}
tc := &tls.Config{RootCAs: pool}
tr := &http.Transport{TLSClientConfig: tc}
client := &http.Client{Transport: tr}
req, err := http.NewRequest("GET", "https://127.0.0.1:8080", nil)
if err != nil {
log.Fatal(err)
}
// This one line implements the authentication required for the task.
req.SetBasicAuth(userid, password)
// Make request and show output.
resp, err := client.Do(req)
if err != nil {
log.Fatal(err)
}
b, err = ioutil.ReadAll(resp.Body)
resp.Body.Close()
if err != nil {
log.Fatal(err)
}
fmt.Println(string(b))
}
Haskell
Example uses the [https://hackage.haskell.org/package/req req] and [https://hackage.haskell.org/package/aeson aeson] packages:

You can also set the headers for the basic auth requests
command getAuthWebResource

set the httpHeaders to "Authorization: Basic " && base64Encode("user:passwd")
put URL "https://example.basicauth.com" into response
