I am create a new asp.net website and I need to use a few authentication provider. I easily got all the providers working (thanks to this awesome template and scotts vid). I'm a little stuck with getting this to work with a linked in account. I assume it would be just as easy as it was for face book but I can't find any tutorials or snippets. I'm sure I'm not the first guy to try this. Please assist
Thank you
In the AuthConfig class under the RegisterAuth method call the method
OAuthWebSecurity.RegisterLinkedInClient("xxxxx","xxxxxxx");
with the appropriate inputs you receive from LinkedIn. Also another thing, I received an error when trying to log in using linkedin. I came across a post on stack overflow(wish I can give the link), you need to update
dotnetopenauth, I used nuget to update it. Thanks PinnyM.

I want to use authentication service given by Firebase in my static website created by Docusaurus. is this possible ?
Thank you in advance
I want to help you with this problem since I got the same one. However, my previous answer was deleted because I attached my detailed blog on this matter only. I will try to give a better one this time so that the answer will reach you and others.
Can you use authentication for your Docusaurus, yes, you can. There is no official documentation on this, but the key point is that you swizzle the Root component, not allowed to render the content if no authentication state is provided via Firebase Auth since it is just ReactJS.
I wrote a detailed tutorial on this with full source code: https://medium.com/#thomasdevshare/docusaurus-authentication-with-firebase-c824da24bc51
Here is the full source code, you can clone and use it: https://github.com/thomasdevshare/docusaurus-auth-firebase
Just hope that my answer will get delivered this time.
I'm working on a cloud project and I have to use Contrail it provides a RESTful API to use, but it is documentation is too small. I would like to know how to perform rest requests, especially post requests on "project" resource.
Each Contrail config node provides supported API details(searchable) at http://:8082/documentation/index.html
You could also check here which is a bit old but should serve your project API needs.
Your question is old, but as there are no other answers I thought I would contribute one. Were you interested in an answer or just wanted to share the documentation you'd written? I agree with you that Contrail documentation is very scarce, and every attempt to contribute to it should be appreciated. I had to integrate with Contrail API a while ago, and found out that in some cases I had to call OpenStack APIs to get the job done (Contrail is built on top of OpenStack). Project and user management were some of them.
I wrote a documentation about Contrail api, For each resource I mention the allowed methods and which parameters to integrate on the request body and I test it until I get it to work finally I put an example. I haven't finished the documentation, I stopped working on Open Contrail. The documentation is my personal try maybe it would be useful and maybe it contains some mistakes, Thus, I would like to share it. You can find it here.
I need some help with implementing a status board with a REST API. I've already found the two best options (in my opinion): Stashboard and Whiskerboard.
I have already tried Whiskerboard and I find it easy to install and deploy because it does not need Google App Engine's SDK to be used locally. However, I need something like Stashboard's REST API: http://readthedocs.org/docs/stashboard/en/latest/restapi.html
I know that Whiskerboard is based on Stashboard so probably they have the same REST API. But I cannot seem to find any documentation on Whiskerboard's REST API. Moreover, I looked into each status board's models and there are lots of differences, with Whiskerboard's being largely simpler compared with that of Stashboard's, so they must not have the same REST API.
I will appreciate it if anyone can provide me a link to Whiskerboard's REST API which should be much like Stashboard's. If there really is none, some other solutions could still be suggested. Thank you in advance!
No, it doesn't have the same REST API. You could find this out by reading the code. If you want a similar REST API you have the following options:
Code the feature yourself.
Ask the developer of Whiskerboard for the feature.
Ask someone else at your organization to code and contribute the feature.
Good luck.
You can check out this solution forked by sijis and myself, jvasallo, that we have been working on. He forked the repo for whiskerboard and added an API to it. Still uses Django, and recently I did some work porting it to 1.5.1. Initially, Whiskerboard is a 1.3 Django app.

I know there are a lot of other question about this topic but I haven't found the right solution for my case.
The landscape is like that:
Backend runs on a tomcat and provides some services. Amongst others there is UserService.login().
The Frontend (JSF 2.0, Spring 3, OpenFaces or Primefaces) which i should implement runs on a different tomcat. I need to implement the security level in the frontend. For sure I'm searching for the best framework (seam, spring security, jaas). And if you know a good tutorial it would be great if you let me know. i can send username/password to the backend and receive a User with id, username and role.
I found lots of tutorials, but i didn't get it work properly. Can anyone help me?
I probably can't explain the whole thing. But you can follow these links and should get you want you need.
First setup basic JSF-Spring Security application like in this link . Here the author did hard code the user details in the applicationContext itself for simplicity. But for your requirement you need to implement a custom UserDetailsService and which is the authentication provider where it loads the user details from the backend. You can take a look at this link.
I would like to use the twitter site-streams but I can't find a way to use them. There is no API-docs online and how to access site-streams.
Does someon have an example in php or better c#?
Are there any API-samples or a full API-doc?
Thanks
Matthias
I called oAuth before doing something similar to Shannon Whitley's user streams example. Use the curl commands generated for you at dev.twitter.com to double check your C# generate urls.
The site stream url is buried in the top middle of the doc (/2b/site.json?follow=1,2,3,4,5) # dev.twitter.com
I'd also follow #sitestreams as well to get heads up on site stream restarts.
The API looks to still be in beta, I found this. It's not a lot of detail, but the post was only a few weeks ago so it is something pretty new. It uses the same REST API that all of twitter uses so if you are familiar with that you should be able to use what it gives you.
If you need a tutorial on REST with twitter here is a decent tutorial. It is using basic authentication so I do strongly recommend that you use OAuth instead.
