  • auth_options (Hash) —

    the authentication options used as a default future token requests

Options Hash (token_params):

  • :client_id (String) —

    A client ID to associate with this token. The generated token may be used to authenticate as this client_id

    the time of the request

  • :nonce (String) —

    an unquoted, unescaped random string of at least 16 characters

Options Hash (auth_options):

  • :auth_url (String) —

    a URL to be used to GET or POST a set of token request params, to obtain a signed token request

  • :auth_headers (Hash) —

    a set of application-specific headers to be added to any request made to the auth_url

  • :auth_params (Hash) —

    a set of application-specific query params to be added to any request made to the auth_url

  • :auth_method (Symbol) — default: :get —

    HTTP method to use with auth_url, must be either :get or :post

  • :auth_callback (Proc) —

    when provided, the Proc will be called with the token params hash as the first argument, whenever a new token is required. The Proc should return a token string, Models::TokenDetails or JSON equivalent, Models::TokenRequest or JSON equivalent

  • :key (String) —

    API key comprising the key name and key secret in a single string

  • :client_id (String) —

    client ID identifying this connection to other clients (will use client_id specified when library was instanced if provided)

end

#authorize(token_params = nil, auth_options = nil) ⇒ Models::TokenRequest

Instructs the library to get a new token immediately. When using the realtime client, it upgrades the current realtime connection to use the new token, or if not connected, initiates a connection to Ably, once the new token has been obtained. Also stores any ‘token_params` and `auth_options` passed in as the new defaults, to be used for all subsequent implicit or explicit token requests. Any `token_params` and `auth_options` objects passed in entirely replace, as opposed to being merged with, the current client library saved values.

Examples:

# will issue a simple token request using basic auth
client = Ably::Rest::Client.new(key: 'key.id:secret')
token_details = client.auth.authorize

# will use token request from block to authorize if not already authorized
token_details = client.auth.authorize {}, auth_callback: lambda do |token_parmas|
  # create token_request object
  token_request
end

Parameters:

  • token_params (Hash, nil) (defaults to: nil) —

    the token params used for future token requests. When nil, previously configured token params are used

  • auth_options (Hash, nil) (defaults to: nil) —

    the authentication options used for future token requests. When nil, previously configure authentication options are used

Options Hash (token_params):

  • :client_id (String) —

    A client ID to associate with this token. The generated token may be used to authenticate as this client_id

  • :ttl (Integer) —

    validity time in seconds for the requested Models::TokenDetails. Limits may apply, see https://www.ably.com/docs/general/authentication

  • :capability (Hash) —

    canonicalised representation of the resource paths and associated operations

  • :timestamp (Time) —

    the time of the request

  • :nonce (String) —

    an unquoted, unescaped random string of at least 16 characters

Options Hash (auth_options):

  • :auth_url (String) —

    a URL to be used to GET or POST a set of token request params, to obtain a signed token request

  • :auth_headers (Hash) —

    a set of application-specific headers to be added to any request made to the auth_url

  • :auth_params (Hash) —

    a set of application-specific query params to be added to any request made to the auth_url

  • :auth_method (Symbol) — default: :get —

    HTTP method to use with auth_url, must be either :get or :post

  • :auth_callback (Proc) —

    when provided, the Proc will be called with the token params hash as the first argument, whenever a new token is required. The Proc should return a token string, Models::TokenDetails or JSON equivalent, Models::TokenRequest or JSON equivalent

  • :key (String) —

    API key comprising the key name and key secret in a single string

  • :client_id (String) —

    client ID identifying this connection to other clients (will use client_id specified when library was instanced if provided)

  • :query_time (Boolean) —

    when true will query the Ably system for the current time instead of using the local time

#client_id_validated? ⇒ Boolean

When a client has authenticated with Ably and the client is either anonymous (cannot assume a client_id) or has an assigned client_id (implicit in all operations), then this client has a validated client_id, even if that client_id is nil (anonymous)

Once validated by Ably, the client library will enforce the use of the client_id identity provided by Ably, rejecting messages with an invalid client_id immediately

#create_token_request(token_params = {}, auth_options = {}) ⇒ Models::TokenRequest

Creates and signs an Models::TokenRequest based on the specified (or if none specified, the client library stored) ‘token_params` and `auth_options`. Note this can only be used when the API key value is available locally. Otherwise, the Models::TokenRequest must be obtained from the key owner. Use this to generate an Models::TokenRequest in order to implement an Ably Token request callback for use by other clients. Both `token_params` and `auth_options` are optional. When omitted or null, the default token parameters and authentication options for the client library are used, as specified in the `client_options` when the client library was instantiated, or later updated with an explicit authorize request. Values passed in are used instead of, rather than being merged with, the default values. To understand why an Models::TokenRequest may be issued to clients in favor of a token, see Token Authentication explained.

Examples:

client.auth.create_token_request({ ttl: 3600 }, { id: 'asd.asd' })
#<Ably::Models::TokenRequest:0x007fd5d919df78
#  @hash={
#   :id=>"asds.adsa",
#   :clientId=>nil,
#   :ttl=>3600000,
#   :timestamp=>1428973674000,
#   :capability=>"{\"*\":[\"*\"]}",
#   :nonce=>"95e543b88299f6bae83df9b12fbd1ecd",
#   :mac=>"881oZHeFo6oMim7....uE56a8gUxHw="
#  }
#>>

Parameters:

  • token_params (Hash) (defaults to: {}) —

  • auth_options (Hash) (defaults to: {}) —

    the authentication options for the token request

Options Hash (token_params):

  • :client_id (String) —

    A client ID to associate with this token. The generated token may be used to authenticate as this client_id

  • :ttl (Integer) —

    validity time in seconds for the requested Models::TokenDetails. Limits may apply, see https://www.ably.com/docs/general/authentication

  • :capability (Hash) —

    canonicalised representation of the resource paths and associated operations

  • :timestamp (Time) —

    the time of the request

  • :nonce (String) —

    an unquoted, unescaped random string of at least 16 characters

Options Hash (auth_options):

  • :key (String) —

    API key comprising the key name and key secret in a single string

  • :client_id (String) —

    client ID identifying this connection to other clients (will use client_id specified when library was instanced if provided)

  • :query_time (Boolean) —

    when true will query the Ably system for the current time instead of using the local time

  • :token_params (Hash) —

    convenience to pass in token_params within the auth_options argument, especially useful when setting default token_params in the client constructor

#request_token(token_params = {}, auth_options = {}) ⇒ Ably::Models::TokenDetails

Calls the requestToken REST API endpoint to obtain an Ably Token according to the specified ‘token_params` and `auth_options`. Both `token_params` and `auth_options` are optional. When omitted or null, the default token parameters and authentication options for the client library are used, as specified in the `client_options` when the client library was instantiated, or later updated with an explicit authorize request. Values passed in are used instead of, rather than being merged with, the default values. To understand why an Ably Models::TokenRequest may be issued to clients in favor of a token, see Token Authentication explained.

Examples:

# simple token request using basic auth
client = Ably::Rest::Client.new(key: 'key.id:secret')
token_details = client.auth.request_token

# token request with token params
client.auth.request_token ttl: 1.hour

# token request using auth block
token_details = client.auth.request_token {}, auth_callback: lambda do |token_params|
  # create token_request object
  token_request
end

Parameters:

  • auth_options (Hash) (defaults to: {}) —

    (see #create_token_request)

  • token_params (Hash) (defaults to: {}) —

    (see #create_token_request)

Options Hash (token_params):

  • :client_id (String) —

    A client ID to associate with this token. The generated token may be used to authenticate as this client_id

  • :ttl (Integer) —

    validity time in seconds for the requested Models::TokenDetails. Limits may apply, see https://www.ably.com/docs/general/authentication

  • :capability (Hash) —

    canonicalised representation of the resource paths and associated operations

  • :timestamp (Time) —

    the time of the request

  • :nonce (String) —

    an unquoted, unescaped random string of at least 16 characters

Options Hash (auth_options):

  • :auth_url (String) —

    a URL to be used to GET or POST a set of token request params, to obtain a signed token request

  • :auth_headers (Hash) —

    a set of application-specific headers to be added to any request made to the auth_url

  • :auth_params (Hash) —

    a set of application-specific query params to be added to any request made to the auth_url

  • :auth_method (Symbol) — default: :get —

    HTTP method to use with auth_url, must be either :get or :post

  • :auth_callback (Proc) —

    when provided, the Proc will be called with the token params hash as the first argument, whenever a new token is required. The Proc should return a token string, Models::TokenDetails or JSON equivalent, Models::TokenRequest or JSON equivalent

  • :key (String) —

    API key comprising the key name and key secret in a single string

  • :client_id (String) —

    client ID identifying this connection to other clients (will use client_id specified when library was instanced if provided)

  • :query_time (Boolean) —

    when true will query the Ably system for the current time instead of using the local time

  • :token_params (Hash) —

    convenience to pass in token_params within the auth_options argument, especially useful when setting default token_params in the client constructor
