DittoAuthenticator

public class DittoAuthenticator

Provides access to authentication information and methods for logging on to Ditto Cloud. Relevant when using an onlineWithAuthentication or an online identity.

  • Returns the current authentication status.

    Declaration

    Swift

    public var status: DittoAuthenticationStatus { get }

  • Log in to Ditto with a third-party token.

    The completion closure will be called once, whether the login attempt succeeds or fails. If it has failed then the optional DittoSwiftError will be non-nil, otherwise it will be nil. Regardless of whether or not the login attempt succeeds the optional String argument will be non-nil if the auth webhook endpoint returned any JSON value under the clientInfo key. That JSON string is what will be passed via the String? argument, if it’s provided.

    @param token the authentication token required to log in. @param provider the name of the authentication provider. @param completion a closure that will get called when the login attempt has completed.

    Declaration

    Swift

    public func login(
    token: String,
    provider: String,
    completion: @escaping (String?, DittoSwiftError?) -> Void
)

  • Log in to Ditto with a third-party token.

    @param token the authentication token required to log in. @param provider the name of the authentication provider. @param completion a closure that will get called when the login attempt has completed.

    Declaration

public func loginWithToken(
    _ token: String,
    provider: String,
    completion: @escaping (DittoSwiftError?) -> Void
)

  • Log in to Ditto with a username and password.

    @param username the username component of the credentials used for log in. @param password the password component of the credentials used for log in. @param provider the name of the authentication provider. @param completion a closure that will get called when the login attempt has completed.

    Declaration

  • Log out of Ditto.

    This will stop sync, shut down all replication sessions, and remove any cached authentication credentials. Use the optional cleanup closure to perform any required cleanup.

    Note that this does not remove any data from the store. The ditto instance returned in the cleanup closure will no longer be authorized for write transactions, e.g. remove(), however, data may be evicted.

    @param cleanup an optional closure that will be called with the relevant Ditto instance as the sole argument that allows you to perform any required cleanup of the store as part of the logout process.

    Declaration

    Swift

    public func logout(cleanup: ((Ditto) -> Void)? = nil)

  • Registers a block that will be called whenever authentication status changes. Returns a DittoObserver that needs to be retained as long as you want to receive the updates.

    public func observeStatus(_ block: @escaping (DittoAuthenticationStatus) -> Void) -> DittoObserver
