Oracle Drags Its Feet in the JavaScript Trademark Dispute
Oracle seeks to dismiss fraud claims in the JavaScript trademark dispute, delaying the case and avoiding questions about its right to the name.

Advanced tools
Express middleware for creating APIs that implement simple-hmac-auth.
Two parameters are required. secretForKey
must be a function that returns a promise with the secret for a specified API key, and onRejected
must be a function that handles requests that have failed authentication.
const auth = require('simple-hmac-auth-express')
app.use(auth({
// Return a promise that resolves with the secret for the specified API key
secretForKey: async (apiKey) => {
return 'SECRET';
},
// Handle requests that have failed authentication
onRejected: (error, request, response, next) => {
console.log(`"${request.apiKey}" failed authentication: ${request.method} ${request.url}`);
response.status(401).json({
error: {
message: error.message
}
});
},
// Optional
onAccepted: (request, response) => {
console.log(`"${request.apiKey}" authenticated request to ${request.method} ${request.url} with signature "${request.signature}"`);
}
}));
Because the unparsed body of the request must be loaded and hashed to authenticate, the included middleware also handles parsing the request body. If you would like to parse the contents of the request body, use the same parameters as body-parser in the body
node:
const auth = require('simple-hmac-auth-express')
app.use(auth({
// Required
secretForKey: (apiKey, callback) => callback(null, 'secret'),
onRejected: (error, request, response, next) => response.status(401).end('401'),
onAccepted: (request, response) => console.log(`authenticated ${request.method} ${request.url}`)
// Body-parser options. All optional.
body: {
json: { strict: false, limit: '1mb' }
urlencoded: { extended: true, limit: '5mb' },
text: { type: 'application/octet-stream' }
}
}));
