I am working on a bash script to get data from the github by hitting the API using curl and this is quite straight forward. However the authentication mechanism we have in our github servers makes this intricate.
Here is the situation :
* The github uses SSO / SAML / opensso for authentication.
* When a user tries to authenticate, it redirects the user to the SSO page and it uses the system certificate to authenticate
* After successfully authenticating, it redirects back to the github page
When I try "curl'ing" the URL, it redirects to SSO. So I passed the -L but that too didn't help.
I have also tried passing the cert and key using --cacert and --key but no luck.
Then I accessed the git using firefox, turned-on the developer tools and copied the "CURL URL" from the network tab which gave me something like below.
This worked! and I believe its the user_session key which got me in.
Please can someone help to find how I can generate this user_session using the curl? so that I can use it and curl again to authenticate and get the data.
I have generate a Personal Access Token from the GIT and passed to curl but that too didnt help. Below are my system details.
Code:
hostname:/home/user $ cat /etc/redhat-release
Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 6.6 (Santiago)
hostname:/home/user $ uname
Linux user 2.6.32-642.11.1.el6.x86_64 #1 SMP Wed Oct 26 10:25:23 EDT 2016 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
hostname:/home/user $ curl -V
