There are 4 | just a few small guidelines you need to follow. 5 | 6 | ## Contributor License Agreement 7 | 8 | Contributions to this project must be accompanied by a Contributor License 9 | Agreement. You (or your employer) retain the copyright to your contribution, 10 | this simply gives us permission to use and redistribute your contributions as 11 | part of the project. Head over to to see 12 | your current agreements on file or to sign a new one. 13 | 14 | You generally only need to submit a CLA once, so if you've already submitted one 15 | (even if it was for a different project), you probably don't need to do it 16 | again. 17 | 18 | ## Code reviews 19 | 20 | All submissions, including submissions by project members, require review. We 21 | use GitHub pull requests for this purpose. Consult 22 | [GitHub Help](https://help.github.com/articles/about-pull-requests/) for more 23 | information on using pull requests. 24 | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- /README.md: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1 | # Polyfills for the Credential Management API 2 | The Credential Management API gained additional features that will be supported 3 | by Google Chrome version 60 and onwards. This repository includes polyfills for 4 | these features, so that developers can use the new API features while supporting 5 | old and new browser versions. 6 | 7 | ## How to use 8 | Simply include `cm-api-shim.js` in your project, for example in the following 9 | way: 10 | ``` html 11 | 12 | ``` 13 | 14 | You can install the library locally by running `bower install cm-api-shim`. 15 | 16 | ## Supported Features 17 | The following features will be supported through the use of this library: 18 | 19 | ### `navigator.credentials.preventSilentAccess` 20 | `navigator.credentials.requireUserMediation` has been renamed to 21 | `navigator.credentials.preventSilentAccess`. Through the use of this library 22 | developers can simply use `preventSilentAccess`, which will dispatch to 23 | `requireUserMediation` for older browsers. 24 | 25 | ### A `mediation` enum argument to `navigator.credentials.get` 26 | The boolean `unmediated` flag argument to `navigator.credentials.get` has been 27 | replaced by a `mediation` enum, which takes the values `'silent'`, `'optional'` 28 | and `'required'`. `mediation: 'silent'` and `mediation: 'optional'` directly map 29 | to `unmediated: true` and `unmediated: false`. As before, `medation: 'optional'` 30 | is the default value if nothing else is specified. 31 | 32 | Note: `mediation: 'required'` is a completely novel option that can not be 33 | polyfilled in older browsers. In this case the polyfill falls back to 34 | `mediation: 'optional'` and warns the developers about doing so via a console 35 | message. 36 | 37 | ### Asynchronous creation of `Credential` objects 38 | It is now possible to create `Credential` objects asynchronously using 39 | `navigator.credentials.create`. This returns a `Promise` which will resolve to a 40 | `Credential` object if successful. 41 | 42 | Currently, both `password` and `federated` are supported as keys, which will 43 | try to create a `PasswordCredential` or `FederatedCredential`. 44 | 45 | Example Use: 46 | ``` js 47 | let cred = await navigator.credentials.create({password: { 48 | id: "Foo", 49 | password: "Bar", 50 | }}); 51 | ``` 52 | 53 | ## Unsupported Features 54 | While the Credential Management API provides access to the `password` property 55 | of `PasswordCredential` for recent browser versions, this can not be polyfilled 56 | and is not supported for older browsers. 57 | 58 | For this use case it is suggested to detect whether access to passwords is 59 | possible or not and dispatch accordingly. 60 | 61 | Example Code: 62 | ``` js 63 | let cred = await navigator.credentials.get({password: true}); 64 | if (cred.password !== undefined) { 65 | let body = {id: cred.id, password: cred.password}; 66 | fetch('my_endpoint.html', {body : body}).then(result => { 67 | // Handle server response. 68 | }); 69 | } else { 70 | fetch('my_endpoint.html', {credentials: cred}).then(result => { 71 | // Handle server response. 72 | }); 73 | } 74 | ``` 75 | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- /cm-api-shim.js: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1 | // Copyright 2017 Google Inc. 2 | // 3 | // Licensed under the Apache License, Version 2.0 (the "License");
