We need to figure out how consumers who send requests for keys will be authenticated. Do they have their own keys? Username/password?

jonahkagan commented 11 years ago

I think the way I'm gonna do this is write a script to manually provision admin keys, which will have key management permissions. Then the app store server can just make requests with one of these admin keys.

Who are you referring to as consumers above? Developers who register for the apps? Won't those requests always be coming through the app store?

jonahkagan commented 11 years ago

I guess I meant just the app store haha. Good point. But we still need a way for the app store's requests to be authenticated. On Dec 21, 2012 12:36 PM, "Sumner Warren" notifications@github.com wrote:

Yea. I think your approach makes sense. Does that mean we need to setup a database to start storing them?

jonahkagan commented 11 years ago

Yeah, but I wont need it for the tests. On Dec 21, 2012 1:05 PM, "Sumner Warren" notifications@github.com wrote:
