alcalyn/authorization-header-fix

Simple listener that restore Authorization header in a Symfony Request under Apache.

Authorization header fix

Using a Symfony application on Apache, you get null when trying to get Authorization header with $request->headers->get('Authorization');., _(*1)

The why is explained in this Stackoverflow question., _(*2)

So if you don't want to patch your .htaccess, this library, inspired by fschmengler's answer in this another SO question, provides a listener which adds the Authorization header to a Symfony Request instance., _(*3)

Installation

Download

Using Composer:, _(*4)

``` js { "require": { "alcalyn/authorization-header-fix": "1.0.x" } }, <sub>(*5)</sub>

### Register listener

To fix all Requests in a full stack Symfony app, register a listener like this:

``` yml
# app/config/services.yml
services:
    acme.listeners.authorization_header_fix:
        class: Alcalyn\AuthorizationHeaderFix\AuthorizationHeaderFixListener
        tags:
            - { name: kernel.event_listener, event: kernel.request, priority: 10 }

Or using Silex:, <sub>(*6)</sub>

php $this->on('kernel.request', array( new Alcalyn\AuthorizationHeaderFix\AuthorizationHeaderFixListener(), 'onKernelRequest' ), 10);, <sub>(*7)</sub>

Note:, <sub>(*8)</sub>

An higher priority is recommended to have the Authorization header available in others listeners., <sub>(*9)</sub>
