[−][src]Crate hawk
The hawk
crate provides support for Hawk
authentictation. It is a low-level crate, used by higher-level crates to integrate with various
Rust HTTP libraries. For example hyper-hawk
integrates Hawk with Hyper.
Examples
Hawk Client
A client can attach a Hawk Authorization header to requests by providing credentials to a Request instance, which will generate the header.
#[macro_use] extern crate pretty_assertions; extern crate time; extern crate hawk; use hawk::{RequestBuilder, Credentials, Key, SHA256, PayloadHasher}; fn main() { // provide the Hawk id and key let credentials = Credentials { id: "test-client".to_string(), key: Key::new(vec![99u8; 32], &SHA256), }; let payload_hash = PayloadHasher::hash("text/plain", &SHA256, "request-body"); // provide the details of the request to be authorized let request = RequestBuilder::new("POST", "example.com", 80, "/v1/users") .hash(&payload_hash[..]) .request(); // Get the resulting header, including the calculated MAC; this involves a random // nonce, so the MAC will be different on every request. let header = request.make_header(&credentials).unwrap(); // the header would the be attached to the request assert_eq!(header.id.unwrap(), "test-client"); assert_eq!(header.mac.unwrap().len(), 32); assert_eq!(header.hash.unwrap().len(), 32); }
Hawk Server
To act as a server, parse the Hawk Authorization header from the request, generate a new Request instance, and use the request to validate the header.
extern crate time; extern crate hawk; use hawk::{RequestBuilder, Header, Key, SHA256}; use hawk::mac::Mac; fn main() { let mac = Mac::from(vec![7, 22, 226, 240, 84, 78, 49, 75, 115, 144, 70, 106, 102, 134, 144, 128, 225, 239, 95, 132, 202, 154, 213, 118, 19, 63, 183, 108, 215, 134, 118, 115]); // get the header (usually from the received request; constructed directly here) let hdr = Header::new(Some("dh37fgj492je"), Some(time::Timespec::new(1353832234, 0)), Some("j4h3g2"), Some(mac), Some("my-ext-value"), Some(vec![1, 2, 3, 4]), Some("my-app"), Some("my-dlg")).unwrap(); // build a request object based on what we know let hash = vec![1, 2, 3, 4]; let request = RequestBuilder::new("GET", "localhost", 443, "/resource") .hash(&hash[..]) .request(); let key = Key::new(vec![99u8; 32], &SHA256); if !request.validate_header(&hdr, &key, time::Duration::weeks(5200)) { panic!("header validation failed. Is it 2117 already?"); } }

Structs
Bewit | A Bewit is a piece of data attached to a GET request that functions in place of a Hawk
Authentication header. It contains an id, a timestamp, a MAC, and an optional |
Credentials | Hawk credentials: an ID and a key associated with that ID. The digest algorithm must be agreed between the server and the client, and the length of the key is specific to that algorithm. |
Error | The Error type. |
Header | Representation of a Hawk |
Key | Hawk key. |
PayloadHasher | A utility for hashing payloads. Feed your entity body to this, then pass the |
Request | Request represents a single HTTP request. |
RequestBuilder | |
Response | A Response represents a response from an HTTP server. |

Enums
ErrorKind | The kind of an error. |
