fetching yahoo contacts in iphone - ios

I am following this link: https://github.com/yahoo/yos-social-objc for retrieving yahoo contacts.
After providing all the credentials (i.e secret key, consumer key, app id) it is going to browser for login. But after logged in, it's displaying this message:
To complete sharing of yahoo! info with xxxx, enter code xxxx into xxxx
So, I am not getting that where I should enter this code? And how will it redirect to my application.
Any help will be appreciated.

CloudSponge has an iOS widget for its contact importer. Visit our test drive page from your iOS device to see how it works.
I work for CloudSponge, please let me know if you have any questions.

You need to specify your callback url. By default it's "oob" and will give you the verifier code. It will be better if you present your own web view and monitor the verifier code through webview delegates. Here's how you do it.
YOSSession *yahooSession; //instance variable
- (IBAction)yahooButtonAction:(UIButton *)sender {
yahooSession = [YOSSession sessionWithConsumerKey:YAHOO_CONSUMER_KEY
andConsumerSecret:YAHOO_CONSUMER_SECRET
andApplicationId:YAHOO_APP_ID];
// try to resume a user session if one exists
BOOL hasSession = [yahooSession resumeSession];
if(hasSession == FALSE) {
[self fetchSession];
}else{
[self sendRequests];
}
}
-(void)fetchSession{
// create a new YOSAuthRequest used to fetch OAuth tokens.
YOSAuthRequest *tokenAuthRequest = [YOSAuthRequest requestWithSession:yahooSession];
// fetch a new request token from oauth.
YOSRequestToken *newRequestToken = [tokenAuthRequest fetchRequestTokenWithCallbackUrl:#"http://localhost"];
// if it looks like we have a valid request token
if(newRequestToken && newRequestToken.key && newRequestToken.secret) {
// store the request token for later use
[yahooSession setRequestToken:newRequestToken];
[yahooSession saveSession];
// create an authorization URL for the request token
NSURL *authorizationUrl = [tokenAuthRequest authUrlForRequestToken:yahooSession.requestToken];
[self presentWebViewForYahooWithAuthURL:authorizationUrl];
//present it in webview
} else {
// NSLog(#"error fetching request token. check your consumer key and secret.");
}
}
-(void) presentWebViewForYahooWithAuthURL:(NSURL *)url{
_yahooWebView = [[UIWebView alloc] initWithFrame:self.view.frame];
_yahooWebView.delegate=self; //so that we can observe the url for verifier
[_yahooWebView loadRequest:[NSURLRequest requestWithURL:url]];
[self.view addSubview:_yahooWebView];
}
- (BOOL)webView:(UIWebView *)webView shouldStartLoadWithRequest:(NSURLRequest *)request navigationType:(UIWebViewNavigationType)navigationType{
NSString *requestString = request.URL.absoluteString;
if ([requestString rangeOfString:#"http://localhost"].length>0) {
NSRange verifierRange = [requestString rangeOfString:#"oauth_verifier="];
if (verifierRange.length>0) {
verifierRange.location =verifierRange.location+verifierRange.length;
verifierRange.length = requestString.length-verifierRange.location;
NSLog(#"Verifier => %#", [requestString substringWithRange:verifierRange]);
yahooSession.verifier=[requestString substringWithRange:verifierRange];
[self sendRequests];
}
return NO;
}
else{
return YES;
}
}

Get access token for ios Dwolla payment sdk

I am working on Dwolla payment gateway integration.
I have created one sandbox user and created one application and got Client key and secret both. Now if i am generating access token from sandbox account and using it(access token) in my iOS application it works fine and i am able to get balance,account info etc.
I want to generate access token from my iOS application but the method is not working on my side.
can any one help me for this.
I got dwolla sdks from here https://github.com/Dwolla/dwolla-ios .
According to this, This method should get called when user successful logged in
- (BOOL)webView:(UIWebView *)webView shouldStartLoadWithRequest:(NSURLRequest *)req navigationType:(UIWebViewNavigationType)navigationType
{
NSMutableURLRequest *request = (NSMutableURLRequest *)req;
NSArray *urlItems = [[request.URL query] componentsSeparatedByString:#"&"];
NSMutableArray *urlValues = [[NSMutableArray alloc] initWithCapacity:[urlItems count]];
for (int i = 0; i<[urlItems count]; i++)
{
NSArray *keysValues = [[urlItems objectAtIndex:i] componentsSeparatedByString:#"="];
[urlValues insertObject:keysValues atIndex:i];
}
if([urlValues count]>0 && [self hasCode:urlValues])
{
[self requestAccessToken:[[urlValues objectAtIndex:0]objectAtIndex:1]];
return NO;
}
return YES;
}
and this condition need to be full fill to get access token, but in my case this condition never gets true.
if([urlValues count]>0 && [self hasCode:urlValues])
{
[self requestAccessToken:[[urlValues objectAtIndex:0]objectAtIndex:1]];
return NO;
}

Use web base authentication and Fill the redirect url at the time of registering the client , this redirect url should not be empty on the client page,then once you enter the device login credentials into your app then it automatically redirect and gives the authentication token then with that authentication token access token will be provided , by using that access token you can get the device details

Steps to use SharePoint Rest interfaces in iOS

I am developing an app for SharePoint online and wanted to use the SharePoint Rest interfaces in my ios app. Can Some one please tell me the steps to use SharePoint Rest interfaces in iOS
I got it, below are the steps to be followed:
Include RestKit in your ios app.
Create a UIView in your home screen and load the login page.
load http: //server name/Pages/default.aspx in the UIWebView
In webViewDidFinished method find out the Fed Auth token and append it with the request URL
- (void)webViewDidFinishLoad:(UIWebView *)webView {
//Retrive HTTPOnly Cookie
NSHTTPCookieStorage *storage = [NSHTTPCookieStorage sharedHTTPCookieStorage];
NSArray *cookiesArray = [storage cookies];
//Search for Fed Auth cookie
for (NSHTTPCookie *cookie in cookiesArray) {
if ([[cookie name] isEqualToString:#"FedAuth"]) {
/*** DO WHATEVER YOU WANT WITH THE COOKIE ***/
NSLog(#"Found FedAuth");
NSURL *url=[NSURL URLWithString:#"http://my server/_vti_bin/listdata.svc"];
RKClient *client = [RKClient clientWithBaseURL:url];
client.requestQueue.requestTimeout = 10;
client.cachePolicy = RKRequestCachePolicyNone;
client.authenticationType = RKRequestAuthenticationTypeHTTPBasic;
client.username = #"username";
client.password = #"Password";
NSString *cookieVale=[cookie value];
NSString *getResourcePath=[#"?" stringByAppendingFormat:#"%#",cookieVale];
[client get:getResourcePath delegate:self];
break;
}
}
}
And here you can find the response.
- (void)request:(RKRequest *)request didLoadResponse:(RKResponse *)response {
id xmlParser = [[RKParserRegistry sharedRegistry] parserForMIMEType:RKMIMETypeXML];
NSError *error = nil;
id parsedResponse = [xmlParser objectFromString:[response bodyAsString] error:&error];
RKLogInfo(#"Parsed response : %#, error:%#",parsedResponse,error);
if ([response isSuccessful]) {
NSLog(#"%d",[response isCreated]);
// Response status was 200..299
if ([response isCreated] && [response isJSON]) {
// Looks like we have a 201 response of type application/json
RKLogInfo(#"The JSON is %#", [response bodyAsJSON]);
}
} else if ([response isError]) {
// Response status was either 400..499 or 500..599
RKLogInfo(#"Ouch! We have an HTTP error. Status Code description: %#", [response localizedStatusCodeString]);
}
}
The self accepted answer lost me lots of hours of trials and errors. It omits some key aspects like the fact that you also need to grab the rtFa cookie. And what's up with client.username = #"username" and client.password = #"Password" provided in the users code. What is that? Note that the client does not know the username or password at any moment...
AAAnyway, below is a great article which will guide you in the right direction:
http://www.codeproject.com/Articles/571996/Development-of-iPhone-client-application-for-Share
And this describes how to get the cookies without using a UIWebView
http://allthatjs.com/2012/03/28/remote-authentication-in-sharepoint-online/
Send the FedAuth cookie with all your subsequent Requests.
Once authenticated, you can call the REST API, documentation here:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/fp142385(v=office.15).aspx#bk_determining
When the user finish the sign in process towards a Office365 Sharepoint instance, the web view will be redirected in several steps. As one of the final steps before loading the actual Sharepoint web site, the web view will be asked to load "about:blank".
Detect when you web view starts loading "about:blank" and you know when the user finished the sign in process and can close the web view. Example code below.
// Load page in web view
- (BOOL)webView:(UIWebView *)webView shouldStartLoadWithRequest:(NSURLRequest *)request navigationType:(UIWebViewNavigationType)navigationType {
NSLog(#"WebView should start loading %#", request.URL.absoluteString);
// Detect that the user finished the sign in process
if ([request.URL.absoluteString isEqualToString:#"about:blank"]) {
// Do your stuff here
return NO;
}
return YES;
}
The Sharepoint instance will also set the FedAuth cookie if the authentication was successful. The cookie must be included in future requests to the server.
You do not have to append the cookie manually, this will be taken care of by the URL loading system as long as the cookies has been accepted and stored in the NSHTTPCookieStorage and you are sending the request to the same server.
From Apple documentation
The URL loading system automatically sends any stored cookies
appropriate for an NSURLRequest. unless the request specifies not to
send cookies. Likewise, cookies returned in an NSURLResponse are
accepted in accordance with the current cookie acceptance policy.

iOS: Google Authentication Code

I am working with authenticating user to use the google account he is associated with. The problem is that everytime the user logs in through my app, the "Allow Access" always appears on the Google's authentication view even I had clicked the Allow Access already from previous test. Is this normal or am I doing my codes wrong? Please help me guys.
I used the following codes for loggin in an out:
- (IBAction)signIn:(id)sender {
if(!isSignedIn){
[self signOutFromAll];
NSString *keychainItemName = nil;
// save keychain
keychainItemName = kKeychainItemName;
NSString *scope = #"https://www.googleapis.com/auth/plus.me";
NSString *clientID = kClientID;
NSString *clientSecret = kClientSecret;
SEL finishedSel = #selector(viewController:finishedWithAuth:error:);
GTMOAuth2ViewControllerTouch *viewController;
viewController = [GTMOAuth2ViewControllerTouch controllerWithScope:scope
clientID:clientID
clientSecret:clientSecret
keychainItemName:keychainItemName
delegate:self
finishedSelector:finishedSel];
[[self navigationController]pushViewController:viewController animated:YES];
} else {
[self displayAlertWithMessage:#"Currently Signed in."];
} }
- (IBAction)signOut:(id)sender {
[self signOutFromAll];
[self displayAlertWithMessage:#"Signed out."]; }
This is for the delegate:
- (void)viewController:(GTMOAuth2ViewControllerTouch *)viewController
finishedWithAuth:(GTMOAuth2Authentication *)auth
error:(NSError *)error{
if(error != nil){
// Authentication failed...
NSLog(#"Authentication error: %#", error);
NSData *responseData = [[error userInfo] objectForKey:#"data"];
if([responseData length] > 0)
NSLog(#"%#", [[[NSString alloc]initWithData:responseData encoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding]autorelease]);
self.auth = nil;
} else {
// Authentication succeeded...
isSignedIn = YES;
self.auth = auth;
}
}
And awakeFromNib:
- (void)awakeFromNib{
// Fill in the Client ID and Client Secret text fields
NSUserDefaults *defaults = [NSUserDefaults standardUserDefaults];
// First, we'll try to get the saved Google authentication, if any, from the keychain
// Normal applications will hardcode in their client ID and client secret,
// But the sample app allows the user to enter them in a text field, and saves them in the preferences
NSString *clientID = [defaults stringForKey:kGoogleClientIDKey];
NSString *clientSecret = [defaults stringForKey:kGoogleClientSecretKey];
GTMOAuth2Authentication *auth;
auth = [GTMOAuth2ViewControllerTouch authForGoogleFromKeychainForName:kKeychainItemName
clientID:clientID
clientSecret:clientSecret];
if (auth.canAuthorize) {
// There is saved google authentication
// self.serviceSegments.selectedSegmentIndex = 0;
}
// Save the authentication object, which holds the auth tokens
self.auth = auth;
[self setAuth:auth];
isSignedIn = self.auth.canAuthorize;
}
By the way my reference for these codes is on this link: http://code.google.com/p/gtm-oauth2/wiki/Introduction#Using_the_OAuth_2_Controllers
from the docs:
The keychain item name is used to save the token on the user’s keychain, and should identify both your application name and the service name(s). If keychainItemName is nil, the token will not be saved, and the user will have to sign in again the next time the application is run.
http://code.google.com/p/gtm-oauth2/wiki/Introduction
So, from your code, it depends on what kKeychainItemName is set to.
Just thought I'd comment on this as I was reading the docs.
Use this method when you get the oauth object to save into keychain
[GTMOAuth2ViewControllerTouch saveParamsToKeychainForName:YOUR_KEYCHAIN_ITEM_NAME authentication:auth];
and
before making a call to api just check and retrieve the oauth object using this
GTMOAuth2Authentication * auth = [GTMOAuth2ViewControllerTouch
authForGoogleFromKeychainForName:YOUR_KEYCHAIN_ITEM_NAME
clientID:GOOGLE_CLIENT_KEY
clientSecret:GOOGLE_CLIENT_SECRET];
and make sure it's oauth object is authentic with using this
if(![GTMOAuth2ViewControllerTouch authorizeFromKeychainForName:YOUR_KEYCHAIN_ITEM_NAME authentication:auth])
I know this is an old question, but I encountered the same issue so I'm writing my solution, it might help somebody else in the future.
Turns out it's not sufficient to only set self.auth, you also need to set the self.analyticsService.authorizer variable
if ([self.auth canAuthorize])
{
self.analyticsService.authorizer = self.auth;
[self getAnalyticsData];
return;
}
This did the trick for me, the user is no longer asked to enter the credentials.
Put the below code to logout / sign out from Google SDK.
- Call below function from where you want:
static NSString *const kKeychainItemName = #"MY_APP";
- (void)logoutFromGoogleDrive {
[GTMOAuth2SignIn revokeTokenForGoogleAuthentication:(GTMOAuth2Authentication *)self.driveService.authorizer];
[GTMOAuth2ViewControllerTouch saveParamsToKeychainForName:kKeychainItemName authentication:nil];
}
[Note: Above code works, if you have used GTMOAuth2SignIn for sign in user for google access like,
GTMOAuth2Authentication * auth = [GTMOAuth2ViewControllerTouch
authForGoogleFromKeychainForName:YOUR_KEYCHAIN_ITEM_NAME
clientID:GOOGLE_CLIENT_KEY
clientSecret:GOOGLE_CLIENT_SECRET];
]
From my experience, this behavior is normal.
Are you having doubts because facebook only asks the user once if the user wants to grant the app privileges to access the user's profile?

Using Flattr API v2 with iOS

I'm currently building an iOS application and want to include Flattr-Support over the Flattr-API v2.
I've already created my application at https://flattr.com/apps/ and got the key and secret.
The problem is that I have to provide a callback-URL in the application-settings at flattr even if I select "client" as application type. In addition only http://... callback-URLs seem to be allowed in the input field so I can't set a callback URL to open my application (something like myApp://...)
How do I implement the Flattr oAuth process for client applications?
Are there any detailed instructions how to implement the flattr-authentication with a non-web-based / iOS application?
I planned to use the JDG OAuthConsumer library but this doesn't seem to work - any other iOS librarys I could use?
A short description of my implementation using the Flattr API v2 to flattr a thing from my iOS application:
I'm currently using the "Google Toolbox for Mac - OAuth 2 Controllers":
http://code.google.com/p/gtm-oauth2/
Create a Token to be authenticated:
- (GTMOAuth2Authentication *)flattrAuth {
NSURL *tokenURL = [NSURL URLWithString:#"https://flattr.com/oauth/token"];
// We'll make up an arbitrary redirectURI. The controller will watch for
// the server to redirect the web view to this URI, but this URI will not be
// loaded, so it need not be for any actual web page.
NSString *redirectURI = #"http://localhost/"; //for me localhost with / didn't work
GTMOAuth2Authentication *auth;
auth = [GTMOAuth2Authentication authenticationWithServiceProvider:#"MyApplication"
tokenURL:tokenURL
redirectURI:redirectURI
clientID:clientKey
clientSecret:clientSecret];
return auth;
}
Create a ViewController to authenticate the token:
- (GTMOAuth2ViewControllerTouch*)getSignInViewController{
GTMOAuth2Authentication *auth = [self flattrAuth];
// Specify the appropriate scope string, if any, according to the service's API documentation
auth.scope = #"flattr";
NSURL *authURL = [NSURL URLWithString:#"https://flattr.com/oauth/authorize"];
GTMOAuth2ViewControllerTouch *viewController;
viewController = [[[GTMOAuth2ViewControllerTouch alloc] initWithAuthentication:auth
authorizationURL:authURL
keychainItemName:keychainItemName
delegate:self
finishedSelector:#selector(viewController:finishedWithAuth:error:)] autorelease];
return viewController;
}
and the delegate method:
- (void)viewController:(GTMOAuth2ViewControllerTouch *)viewController
finishedWithAuth:(GTMOAuth2Authentication *)auth
error:(NSError *)error {
if (error != nil) {
DLog(#"Flattr sign-in failed with error: %#", [error localizedDescription]);
} else {
DLog(#"Flattr Signin success");
authToken = [auth retain];
}
}
You can display the Viewcontroller in your application - it displays the flattr-login to the user so he can authenticate the application.
You can flattr a thing with the authentication token this way:
NSString* flattrURL = #"https://api.flattr.com/rest/v2/things/%qi/flattr";
NSURL* u = [NSURL URLWithString:[NSString stringWithFormat:flattrURL, item.flattrThingID]];
NSMutableURLRequest* request = [NSMutableURLRequest requestWithURL:u];
[authToken authorizeRequest:request completionHandler:^(NSError *error){
if (error == nil) {
// the request has been authorized
NSURLConnection* connection = [[[NSURLConnection alloc] initWithRequest:request delegate:self] autorelease];
if(!connection){
//TODO: handle error
} else {
[connection start];
}
} else {
//TODO: handle error
}
}];
Now implement the NSURLConnectection delegate methods and parse the JSON responses.
The GTMOAuth2 library allows you to save the authenticated token to the keychain. Look at their introduction at http://code.google.com/p/gtm-oauth2/wiki/Introduction#Retrieving_Authorization_from_the_Keychain for instructions.
When you wan't to authenticate a desktop/mobile app you would wan't to use the oauth2 implicit grant flow. As you register your flattr application use a application specific URI that will callback to your application, ex. iphone-application://oauth-callback.
When you authenticate the application with us you use the response_type token instead of code. This will create a token at once and redirect you back to your application.
Ex. request URL: https://flattr.com/oauth/authorize?client_id=2134&redirect_uri=iphone-application://oauth-callback&response_type=token
If the resource owner will authorize your application we will send a HTTP 302 and redirect you back to your redirect uri.
Ex. response 302 Location: iphone-application://oauth-callback#access_token=e5oNJ4917WAaJaO4zvoVV2dt3GYClPzp&token_type=bearer
Currently we don't have any detailed documentation explaining how to do the implicit grant but we are working on the documentation. Meanwhile i'm all ears.
https://github.com/nxtbgthng/OAuth2Client is a iOS oauth2 library but I don't know if it's any good.
This one looks good: https://github.com/neonichu/FlattrKit
