PHP library that can use different authentication mechanisms
$begingroup$
I am making a library which can use different auth mechanisms. I have abstracted the code within an interface:
interface Authenticable
{
public function getName(): string;
/**
* Based on auth type, return the right format of credentials to be sent to the server
*
* @param Authenticable $credentials
* @return mixed
*/
public function encodedCredentials(): string;
}
One of the possible methods to use this is Plain.php:
class Plain implements Authenticable
{
protected $name = 'PLAIN';
protected $options;
public function __construct(Options $options)
{
$this->options = $options;
}
public function encodedCredentials(): string
{
$credentials = "x00{$this->options->getUsername()}x00{$this->options->getPassword()}";
return XML::quote(base64_encode($credentials));
}
public function getName(): string
{
return $this->name;
}
}
And when initializing auth methods I am using this part of code
public function getAuthType()
{
if (!$this->authType)
$this->authType = new Plain($this->options);
return $this->authType;
}
which is initializing Plain if no other method was previously given.
What I am wondering here is: should I forward $username and $password to Plain so that I could decouple it from Options class (since those are the only two fields needed in the class)?
On the other hand, that is what Options class is all about. Besides username and pass, it also holds host, port, logger and resource setters and getters, and few helper methods
