Rhoconnect webservice login need - rhomobile

Question

I am very new guy in Rhomobile and I want to login a webservice using Rhoconnect can anyone help me how to implement this.
I've tried with in Settings Controler:
def do_login
if #params['username'] and #params['password']
begin
SyncEngine.login(#params['username'], #params['password'], (url_for :action => :login_callback) )
#response['headers']['Wait-Page'] = 'true'
redirect :action => :index
rescue Rho::RhoError => e
#msg = e.message
render :action => :login
end
else
#msg = Rho::RhoError.err_message(Rho::RhoError::ERR_UNATHORIZED) unless #msg && #msg.length > 0
render :action => :login
end
end
Where SyncEngine.login(#params['username'], #params['password']) call the sourecadapter method login; where I'm calling
def login(username, password)
user_info = {:username => username, :password => password }
response = RestClient.get(#base+#params['username']+#params['password'])
result = RestClient.post(:url => "my-webservice" )
#msg=result["body"]
render :action => :index
end
I've tried in:
class Application < Rhoconnect::Base
class << self
def authenticate(username,password,session)
result = RestClient.post(:url => "mywebservice" )
true # do some interesting authentication here...
end
end
But I got nothing..
plz give some idea me; how to solve this

Answer 1

SyncEngine.login call from Rhodes app will call authenticate(username, password, session)
method in application.rb of your RhoConnect app. Then, you can code the authenticate method to call your implementation of user authentication as follows:
def authenticate(username, password, session)
# for example
resp = RestClient.post(:url => "mywebservice", :login => {:username => username, :password => password})
#parse resp as needed and return the result either true or false
# i.e. status contains value true or false in the response body
result = JSON.parse(resp.body)['status']
end
Hope that helps.
