Overview

Registry for ::Net::IMAP::SASL authenticators

Registered authenticators must respond to #new or #call (e.g. a class or a proc), receiving any credentials and options and returning an authenticator instance. The returned object represents a single authentication exchange and must not be reused for multiple authentication attempts.

An authenticator instance object must respond to #process, receiving the server’s challenge and returning the client’s response. Optionally, it may also respond to #initial_response? and #done?. When #initial_response? returns true, #process may be called the first time with nil. When #done? returns false, the exchange is incomplete and an exception should be raised if the exchange terminates prematurely.

See the source for PlainAuthenticator, XOAuth2Authenticator, and ScramSHA1Authenticator for examples.

Constructor Details

.new(use_defaults: true, use_deprecated: true) ⇒ Authenticators

Create a new Authenticators registry.

This class is usually not instantiated directly. Use Net::IMAP::SASL.authenticators to reuse the default global registry.

When use_defaults is false, the registry will start empty. When use_deprecated is false, deprecated authenticators will not be included with the defaults.

Instance Method Details

#add_authenticator(mechanism) #add_authenticator(mechanism, authenticator_class) #add_authenticator(mechanism, authenticator_proc)

Registers an authenticator for #authenticator to use. mechanism is the name of the {Net::IMAP::SASL mechanism} implemented by authenticator_class (for instance, "PLAIN").

If mechanism refers to an existing authenticator, the old authenticator will be replaced.

When only a single argument is given, the authenticator class will be lazily loaded from Net::IMAP::SASL::#{name}Authenticator (case is preserved and non-alphanumeric characters are removed..

#authenticator(mechanism, ...) ⇒ auth_session Also known as: #new

Builds an authenticator instance using the authenticator registered to mechanism. The returned object represents a single authentication exchange and must not be reused for multiple authentication attempts.

All arguments (except mechanism) are forwarded to the registered authenticator’s #new or #call method. Each authenticator must document its own arguments.

Note

This method is intended for internal use by connection protocol code only. Protocol client users should see refer to their client’s documentation, e.g. Net::IMAP#authenticate.
