Class BasicAuthorizationInterceptor

public BasicAuthorizationInterceptor​(@Nullable
                                     String username,
                                     @Nullable
                                     String password)

Create a new interceptor which adds a BASIC authorization header for the given username and password.

public ClientHttpResponse intercept​(HttpRequest request,
                                    byte[] body,
                                    ClientHttpRequestExecution execution)
                             throws IOException

Intercept the given request, and return a response. The given ClientHttpRequestExecution allows the interceptor to pass on the request and response to the next entity in the chain.

A typical implementation of this method would follow the following pattern:

1. Examine the request and body
2. Optionally wrap the request to filter HTTP attributes.
3. Optionally modify the body of the request.
4. Either
   • execute the request using ClientHttpRequestExecution.execute(org.springframework.http.HttpRequest, byte[]),
   or
   • do not execute the request to block the execution altogether.
5. Optionally wrap the response to filter HTTP attributes.
