Authentication with encrypted password #28

Closed negre closed 9 years ago

negre commented 9 years ago

The authentication doesn't work when the axis camera only accept authentication with encrypted password. It would be nice to handle this kind of authentication.

Yes, it would be nice... Feel free to contribute :)

This has been on my todo list for a while, but no time so far to actually do it.

Cheers.

OK, I solved the problem on my fork (https://github.com/negre/axis_camera) I add a ros parameter "use_encrypted_password" to enable/disable this authentication When use_encrypted_password is True, "urllib2.HTTPBasicAuthHandler(password_mgr)" is replaced by "urllib2.HTTPDigestAuthHandler(password_mgr)"

I will send a pull request to merge the code.

Cheers

I merged your PR after giving it a short test on a real camera. Closing :)
