I'm on my first steps of communicating with my server to setup an authorization system, and currently I'm just testing the server functions in HISE by calling for the auth token.

JWT in installed and everything is (supposed to be) set up correctly on my server.

I'm able to receive the token by making a POST request here :
"/wp-json/jwt-auth/v1/token"

But i'm getting an error when testing the token here :
"/wp-json/jwt-auth/v1/token/validate"

Everything is working fine when testing the procedure with Postman.

The thing is, if I setup the http header with the token string, it works : Server.setHttpHeader("Authorization: Bearer " + "token.TypedManuallyAsA.String"); I'm getting a 200 response, but
if I setup the http header with Server.setHttpHeader("Authorization: Bearer " + text);, I end up with a "Authorization header malformed".

I checked this thread where @d-healey 's
mentionned having header problems but I changed the htacces and the wp-config.php accordingly to the JWT docs so it's supposed to be ok on this side.

If someone has any clue about what's going on :)

[d.healey]

@matt_sf I use

Server.setHttpHeader("Authorization: Bearer " + token);

Console.print() your text variable to make sure it contains what you think it does.

[Matt_SF]

@d-healey here's a snippet, the "text" variable contains only the token as a string.
If I use a the token as a string I get a "Wrong number of segments" error.
If I use the token as an object I get a "Signature verification failed" error...

Also a weird thing : when I get the token then ask for validation and get a header error, if I start again from the beginning, I don't receive the token and get a 403 error... I don't know if it's supposed to happend serverwise...

[d.healey]

[d.healey]

@matt_sf Mystery solved. Look in your info.txt file, see those quotation marks? They're not part of your token are they :)

Try

local text = info.loadAsString().replace('""');

[Matt_SF]

@d-healey aaaarrh, I sensed they might be the cause of the error, I tried to use .replace but didn't write it correctly.
Thanks a lot David, as always you're here to save the day

[Matt_SF]

@d-healey I tried it this morning but no luck, the .replace function didn't work, I still ended up with the quotation marks...
But I tried different things and ended up writing the whole response object (not just the token) to a file and load it as an object.value and it finally worked.

@matt_sf Console always shows quotation marks for strings. I tested the code before I suggested it to you with your snippet and it worked for me.

[Matt_SF]

@d-healey @ustk oh that's odd.

@matt_sf said in Woocommerce linked licensing system for your plugins:

const text = '"text"';

Console.print(text.replace('""'));

Ok in this example I put the "string" inside the simple quotes ' so that was my mistake.

But If I use a txtFile.txt containing "Some text" (with the double quotes like I get when writing the response.tokeninto a file) and use this code:

const desktop = FileSystem.getFolder(FileSystem.Desktop);
const textFile = desktop.getChildFile("txtFile.txt");

const test = "test";

Console.print(test.replace('""'));
Console.print(textFile.loadAsString().replace('""'));

It doesn't work. The console output correctly testbut outputs "Some text"...

Try below snippet. By the way, why are you using replace? For removing spaces? If yes, you should use it like this: textFile.loadAsString().replace(" ", "")

No, we're removing quotation marks ""

[orange]

@d-healey said in Woocommerce linked licensing system for your plugins:

No, we're removing quotation marks ""

Why? I think there is no need to do that?

[d.healey]

@orange When the token is written to the text file it adds quotation marks. These need to be removed before being added to the header.

[orange]

@d-healey Then substring can work here. This will extract the string between first and last chars.

exampleString.substring(1, exampleString.length-1);

[Matt_SF]

@d-healey @orange so, .substring works but .replace doesn't...

(no matter if I write .replace("", "") or .replace('""', "") the result is the same).

By using this, I mananged to get it to work :

const info = desktop.getChildFile("info.txt");

// Function getTheToken
info.writeObject(response);

// Function verifyTheToken
local text = info.loadAsObject();
local token = text.token;

Server.setHttpHeader("Authorization: Bearer " + token);

Is there a preferred method between .loadAsObject() and .loadAsString for these kind of things or is there no difference ?

[d.healey]

@matt_sf I use an encrypted object.

[orange]

@matt_sf said in Woocommerce linked licensing system for your plugins:

I think objects would be better choice. Writing and Rreading encrypted objects is more secure way for that purpose. You can encrypt the file with a combination of complex pin and machine ID. Also you can change the encrypted file extension from .json to .dat or whatever you like.
