Add SAML / 3rd Party Authentication Support #1064

Closed naodwalk closed 1 year ago

naodwalk commented 1 year ago

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe: There is no way to authenticate to myQ with this plugin if a user registers with their Apple, Google or Amazon account.

Describe the solution you'd like: Allow users the ability to authenticate to the API using their SAML credentials, or at least warn the users in the README that this is not supported.

Describe alternatives you've considered: Delete my SAML account and recreate one using myQ user/password authentication

Additional context: If you're using a custom API, then I understand this could be a limitation with that. However, if you wrote your own, I'd be happy to Wireshark my phone to try and see where the authentication happens and what the request/response looks like.

I have no intentions currently to support non-myQ accounts. There are several technical considerations that just aren't worth the effort, though if someone wants to take it on, I'm open to accepting a PR.

TL;DR: If you want to use this plugin, you're going to need a myQ account.

If someone wants to work on supporting other login types, I'm all for it as long as it's well-implemented...but I'm focusing my time elsewhere given the solve is pretty straightforward - use a myQ account. 😄

Thanks for the suggestion.
