Camel OAuth TutorialOverviewGoal of this tutorial is to demonstrate how to implement an OAuth consumer with Apache Camel. In this tutorial, the OAuth consumer is a simple web application running on Google App Engine. It reads data from a user's Google Calendar i.e. it displays the names of the user's public and private calendars. The OAuth-based authorization process that allows the application to access a user's calendars is implemented using Camel's gauth component. The application is accessible online at http://gauthcloud.appspot.com/oauth/calendar (later, it will be explained how to build and deploy the application yourself). Play with it by following these steps:
ArchitectureThe following figure sketches the architcture of the distributed web application and an example sequence of interactions.

DeploymentThis section explains how to build and deploy the web application yourself. Prerequisites
Build from sourcesCheckout the sources with svn co http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/camel/trunk/examples/camel-example-gauth camel-example-gauth Open camel-example-gauth/pom.xml file and define values for the application properties e.g. pom.xml <project xmlns="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0 http://maven.apache.org/maven-v4_0_0.xsd"> ... <properties> <!-- application properties --> <gae.application.name>gauthclaud</gae.application.name> <gae.consumer.key>gauthcloud.appspot.com</gae.consumer.key> <gae.consumer.secret>g2e...ue</gae.consumer.secret> ... </properties> ... </project> or pom.xml <project xmlns="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0 http://maven.apache.org/maven-v4_0_0.xsd"> ... <properties> <!-- application properties --> <gae.application.name>gauthclaud</gae.application.name> <gae.consumer.key>anonymous</gae.consumer.key> <gae.consumer.secret>anonymous</gae.consumer.secret> ... </properties> ... </project> if you don't want to register your application. Then go to the camel-example-gauth directory and enter mvn install This will create the application war file in the target directory. Deploy to AppengineFinally use the appcfg command-line tool of the App Engine SDK to deploy the application. appcfg update target/camel-example-gauth-<version> where version needs to be replaced with the version of Camel you're using. You will be prompted for the email address and password of your Google App Engine account. After deployment the example application is ready to use.
Code walkthroughApplication controllerEntry point to the demo application is the TutorialController. It tries to obtain an OAuth access token from a cookie and interacts with the TutorialService for getting a user's calendar data from the Google Calendar API. Error messages (authentication failures) are displayed to the user by selecting the authorize.jsp view. This view also contains a link for starting the OAuth authorization process as shown above. A list of calendar names is displayed to the user by selecting the calendar.jsp view. TutorialController.java package org.apache.camel.example.gauth; import java.util.List; import javax.servlet.http.Cookie; import javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest; import javax.servlet.http.HttpServletResponse; import com.google.gdata.util.AuthenticationException; import org.springframework.beans.factory.annotation.Autowired; import org.springframework.stereotype.Controller; import org.springframework.ui.ModelMap; import org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.RequestMapping; import org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.RequestMethod; /** * Single controller for the demo application that handles GET requests. Obtains OAuth access * token and access token secret from cookies and uses them to obtain calendar names from the * Google Calendar API. If the interaction with the calendar API fails due to invalid or non- * existing OAuth tokens an error message is displayed in authorize.jsp. If it succeeds the * calendar names are displayed in calendar.jsp. * <p> * In production systems it is <em>not</em> recommended to store access tokens in cookies. The * recommended approach is to store them in a database. The demo application is only doing that * to keep the example as simple as possible. However, an attacker could not use an access token * alone to get access to a user's calendar data because the application's consumer secret is * necessary for that as well. The consumer secret never leaves the demo application. */ @Controller @RequestMapping("/calendar") public class TutorialController { @Autowired private TutorialService service; @SuppressWarnings("unchecked") @RequestMapping(method = RequestMethod.GET) public String handleGet( HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response, ModelMap model) throws Exception { List<String> calendarNames = null; // Get OAuth tokens from cookies String accessToken = getAccessToken(request); String accessTokenSecret = getAccessTokenSecret(request); if (accessToken == null) { model.put("message", "No OAuth access token available"); return "/WEB-INF/jsp/authorize.jsp"; } try { // Get calendar names from Google Calendar API calendarNames = service.getCalendarNames(accessToken, accessTokenSecret); } catch (AuthenticationException e) { model.put("message", "OAuth access token invalid"); return "/WEB-INF/jsp/authorize.jsp"; } model.put("calendarNames", calendarNames); return "/WEB-INF/jsp/calendar.jsp"; } private static String getAccessToken(HttpServletRequest request) { return getCookieValue(request.getCookies(), "TUTORIAL-ACCESS-TOKEN"); } private static String getAccessTokenSecret(HttpServletRequest request) { return getCookieValue(request.getCookies(), "TUTORIAL-ACCESS-TOKEN-SECRET"); } // rest of code not shown ... } Application serviceAccess to the Google Calendar API is encapsulated in the TutorialService class. It uses Google's GData client library for abstracting from low-level protocol details. The getCalendarNames method is paramterized with an OAuth access token and access token secret. If the access token is invalid then an AuthenticationException is thrown by the GData client. The exception is handled by the TutorialController. TutorialService.java package org.apache.camel.example.gauth; import java.net.URL; import java.util.ArrayList; import java.util.List; import java.util.Properties; import com.google.gdata.client.authn.oauth.OAuthHmacSha1Signer; import com.google.gdata.client.authn.oauth.OAuthParameters; import com.google.gdata.client.calendar.CalendarService; import com.google.gdata.data.calendar.CalendarEntry; import com.google.gdata.data.calendar.CalendarFeed; /** * Facade for getting calendar names from the Google Calendar API.

It cleanly separates OAuth integration logic from other parts of the application and is implemented by the TutorialRouteBuilder class. TutorialRouteBuilder.java package org.apache.camel.example.gauth; import java.net.URLEncoder; import org.apache.camel.builder.RouteBuilder; /** * Builds the OAuth-specific routes (implements the OAuth integration layer) of the demo application. */ public class TutorialRouteBuilder extends RouteBuilder { private String application; /** * Sets the name of the GAE application. * * @param application a GAE application name. */ public void setApplication(String application) { this.application = application; } @Override public void configure() throws Exception { // Callback URL for sending back an authorized access token. String encodedCallback = URLEncoder.encode( String.format("https://%s.appspot.com/camel/handler", application), "UTF-8"); // Google should issue an access token that is scoped to calendar feeds. String encodedScope = URLEncoder.encode("http://www.google.com/calendar/feeds/", "UTF-8"); // Route for obtaining an unauthorized request token from Google Accounts. The // response redirects the browser to an authorization page provided by Google. from("ghttp:///authorize") .to("gauth:authorize?callback=" + encodedCallback + "&scope=" + encodedScope); // Handles callbacks from Google Accounts which contain an authorized request token. // The authorized request token is upgraded to an access token which is stored in // the response message header. The TutorialTokenProcessor is application-specific // and stores the access token (plus access token secret) is cookies. It further // redirects the user to the application's main location (/oauth/calendar). from("ghttp:///handler") .to("gauth:upgrade") .process(new TutorialTokenProcessor()); } } This class implements two routes:
The last step in the second route is an application-specific processor (TutorialTokenProcessor) that stores the access token in a cookie and redirects the user to the main page of the demo application (which is served by the TutorialController). TutorialTokenProcessor.java package org.apache.camel.example.gauth; import javax.servlet.http.Cookie; import javax.servlet.http.HttpServletResponse; import org.apache.camel.Exchange; import org.apache.camel.Processor; import static org.apache.camel.component.gae.auth.GAuthUpgradeBinding.GAUTH_ACCESS_TOKEN; import static org.apache.camel.component.gae.auth.GAuthUpgradeBinding.GAUTH_ACCESS_TOKEN_SECRET; /** * Reads an OAuth access token plus access token secret from a Camel message and stores them in * cookies. These cookies are needed by {@link org.apache.camel.example.gauth.TutorialController} * for accessing a user's calendar via the Google Calendar API. The cookies are valid for one * hour. Finally, it generates an HTTP 302 response that redirects the user to the application's * main location (/oauth/calendar). * <p> * In production systems it is <em>not</em> recommended to store access tokens in cookies. The * recommended approach is to store them in a database. The demo application is only doing that * to keep the example as simple as possible.

The consumer secret never leaves the demo application. */ public class TutorialTokenProcessor implements Processor { private static final int ONE_HOUR = 3600; public void process(Exchange exchange) throws Exception { String accessToken = exchange.getIn().getHeader(GAUTH_ACCESS_TOKEN, String.class); String accessTokenSecret = exchange.getIn().getHeader(GAUTH_ACCESS_TOKEN_SECRET, String.class); if (accessToken != null) { HttpServletResponse servletResponse = exchange.getIn().getHeader( Exchange.HTTP_SERVLET_RESPONSE, HttpServletResponse.class); Cookie accessTokenCookie = new Cookie("TUTORIAL-ACCESS-TOKEN", accessToken); Cookie accessTokenSecretCookie = new Cookie("TUTORIAL-ACCESS-TOKEN-SECRET", accessTokenSecret); accessTokenCookie.setPath("/oauth/"); accessTokenCookie.setMaxAge(ONE_HOUR); accessTokenSecretCookie.setPath("/oauth/"); accessTokenSecretCookie.setMaxAge(ONE_HOUR); servletResponse.addCookie(accessTokenCookie); servletResponse.addCookie(accessTokenSecretCookie); } exchange.getOut().setHeader(Exchange.HTTP_RESPONSE_CODE, 302); exchange.getOut().setHeader("Location", "/oauth/calendar"); } } For further details about implementing OAuth integration layers in web application refer to the gauth component documentation. ConfigurationThe TutorialController and TutorialService are set up in their own Spring application context. The TutorialController is scanned from the classpath using Spring's <ctx:component-scan> element.
