Progress on the ROTS gem
I’m almost there to finish the goal of having an easy to use API to test OpenID Consumers. Some of the fallbacks have been the complex indirect communications between the OpenID consumer and the OP.
When trying to use a Rack mock request on the Server handler, with the URL of the consumer, an op_endpoint mismatch error is being thrown. I’m pulling my hair out just to find out where I need to modify the test API to make it work.
Of course, this problems happens only with the id_res responses of the OP (the one that verifies everything from the OP). The cancel responses work as expected.
I went to the #openid IRC channel just to see if there was someone that could help me with these endeavor. Luckily there was this fellow called “keturn” that spent sometime sharing thoughts. Right now I’m a little bit tired just to find out anything at all.
Let’s hope the IRC channel will be more crowded tomorrow.
