Credential Store - internetarchive/heritrix3 GitHub Wiki

The Credential Store contains the http or form login information.  It must be configured in the crawler-beans.cxml file.

This is an example of an empty CredentialStore:

<bean id="credentialStore"
      class="org.archive.modules.credential.CredentialStore">
</bean>

However, for it to work, its 'credentials' map property must be filled with suitable Credential instances. For example, if you have an HtmlFormCredential bean defined elsewhere with id 'formCredential', then the following will result in a CredentialStore including that Credential:

<bean id="credentialStore"
       class="org.archive.modules.credential.CredentialStore">
 <property name="credentials">
  <map>
   <entry key="formCredential" value-ref="formCredential" />
  </map>
 </property>
</bean>
