Liferay sceenlet pass session to webview
Regular Member Posts: 179 Join Date: 6/22/12 Recent Posts
Hello,

I created a android application and using Login screenlet I am able to login and connect with Liferay instance.
Now, I want to show the loggedin user's private page using webview of android.

Is there any way to pass the session from login screenlet and open private page as loggedin in webview.

Or, is there any screenlet to show the page.

Thanks.

Hi!

Next week we are going to release a new version of the library, this new version includes a new login method, cookie login!
This new login type will let you solve your problem in an easy way, once we release it we can give you indications on how to do it emoticon

Kind regards,

Víctor

Hello Victor,

Thanks a lot, I will wait for the new update.

For now we got some workaround through following ways:
1. open https://localhost:8080?login=username&password=pass in webview
Or, we can go pass some encrypted token and based on auto login we can login.

Will cookie login work in liferay 6.2 and 7 both?

Thanks.

It will (hopefully), but we'll have official support only for Liferay 7

Thank you for your reply. However, for some reason, I can only use the 6.2 version, open the webview prompt and need to login,Can I get cookies on version 6.2.

I'm still confused by the web view's cookie, and here's how I actually use it.

Log in using screnntlet
<com.liferay.mobile.screens.auth.login.loginscreenlet android:id="@+id/login_screenlet" android:layout_width="match_parent" android:layout_height="match_parent" android:layout_centerhorizontal="true" android:layout_below="@+id/include" liferay:basicauthmethod="screen_name" liferay:companyid="@string/id_company" liferay:layoutid="@layout/view_login_main"></com.liferay.mobile.screens.auth.login.loginscreenlet>


Step 1: how to get cookie from Liferay？
Step 2: how to put cookie into webview？

Step 1: how to get cookie from Liferay？

Using liferay:loginMode="cookie" in your LoginScreenlet

Step 2: how to put cookie into webview？

It's done automatically if you use that loginMode emoticon

When I using liferay:loginMode="cookie" in your LoginScreenlet,then login failed。
<com.liferay.mobile.screens.auth.login.loginscreenlet android:id="@+id/login_screenlet" android:layout_width="match_parent" android:layout_height="match_parent" android:layout_centerHorizontal="true" android:layout_below="@+id/include" liferay:basicAuthMethod="screen_name" liferay:companyId="@string/id_company" liferay:loginMode="cookie" liferay:layoutId="@layout/view_login_main" />


Below is the login error message.

Hi!

This error normally appears when the credentials are incorrect
I see that are you using screen_name as the basicAuthMethod, do you have that configured in the server too?

If don't use loginMode，I can login successfully
Is server needs to configure cookies related Settings.

Can you execute this cURL request and tell me if you are receiving a correct status code?


curl -X POST \
  <your-liferay-server>/c/portal/login \
  -H 'Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded' \
  -H 'Cookie: COOKIE_SUPPORT=true;' \
  -d 'login=<screen-name>&amp;password=<password>'
</password></screen-name></your-liferay-server>

It's very strange because internally it is doing the same request that you did with the cURL and that worked

Can you try this now:


CookieAuthentication authentication =
			new CookieAuthentication("", "", "<your-screen-name>", "<your-password>");

		Session session = new SessionImpl("<your-server-url>", authentication);

		CookieSignIn.signIn(session, new CookieSignIn.CookieCallback() {
			@Override
			public void onSuccess(Session session) {
				Log.d("LOGIN", "Login correct");
			}

			@Override
			public void onFailure(Exception e) {
				Log.e("LOGIN", "Login error", e);
			}
</your-server-url></your-password></your-screen-name>

Thank you for your reply. I am sorry that the server is being upgraded today, and I will test this method immediately after the server has been restored.
