        &'life0 self,
        _stale: &'life1 Credential,
    ) -> Pin<Box<dyn Future<Output = Result<Credential, FaucetError>> + Send + 'async_trait>>
       where Self: 'async_trait,

}

A live, shareable source of credentials.

One instance is shared (via Arc) across all connectors that reference it, giving single-flight refresh: concurrent callers during a refresh await the one in-flight fetch rather than each refreshing independently.

Object-safe — no generics or associated types, so it can be held as Arc<dyn AuthProvider> (SharedAuthProvider).

Required Methods

fn credential<'life0, 'async_trait>( &'life0 self, ) -> Pin<Box<dyn Future<Output = Result<Credential, FaucetError>> + Send + 'async_trait>>

where Self: 'async_trait, 'life0: 'async_trait,

Return a currently-valid credential, refreshing if needed.

fn provider_name(&self) -> &'static str

Stable, non-empty name for diagnostics and metrics.

Provided Methods

fn invalidate<'life0, 'life1, 'async_trait>( &'life0 self, _stale: &'life1 Credential, ) -> Pin<Box<dyn Future<Output = Result<Credential, FaucetError>> + Send + 'async_trait>>

where Self: 'async_trait, 'life0: 'async_trait, 'life1: 'async_trait,

Force a refresh iff the cached credential still equals stale (compare-and-swap). Multiple connectors that hit a 401 with the same token collapse into a single refresh; callers holding an already-rotated token get the new one without triggering another fetch.

The default delegates to AuthProvider::credential; providers that support refresh override it.

Dyn Compatibility

This trait is dyn compatible.

In older versions of Rust, dyn compatibility was called "object safety".
