WebDAV support for "AuthType Digest" #138

Open FilipVaverka opened 3 years ago

FilipVaverka commented 3 years ago

Is it possible (and/or desirable) to add support for Digest authentication method?

I had some issues connecting to my WebDAV server (Ubuntu/Apache2), which I use with no issues with desktop Zotero app. After some testing I figured out that Zoo for Zotero always uses only "Basic" authentication, while I had set up Apache with "AuthType Digest". The desktop Zotero app seems to be able to switch between Digest and Basic on its own.

This is an issue with the WebDAV library I'm using. Unfortunately there seems to be only 1 WebDAV library available for Android.

Maybe it could be done with okhttp-digest? However, "Basic" over SSL may very well be fine - I don't see into this much.
