Obtaining eBay OAuth access code after user clicks

By -

So, I am trying to obtain the eBay OAuth access_token into my React app and have gotten stuck because I don't know how to get that back to my app once the access_token comes through.

I have created a page in React with a button meant to display an eBay OAuth link after user clicks.

However, I am doing all this testing from my local machine, namely localhost:3000 (frontend) and localhost:8000 (express backend).

And to bypass the https requirement by ebay (I am using http://localhost:8000 which is a no-no for the eBay redirect url), I am using ngrok to produce links that look like https://8e37hhnc176c.ngrok.io/ which go in the ebay RuName settings.

All is well and good until I have to obtain the access_token because by clicking the link created by clicking that initial button, it opens a new page that I cannot access the localstorage or cookie for. I am at a loss as to how to get this back to my redux React frontend app. I thought about having it write this token to a temp file on the server but I don't like that potential security risk.

How can I return the access_code returned from eBay to my app?

Attempts:

  • Tried res.cookie by returning a view page which ultimately showed me that wouldn't work because it's a new tab that opens and even tho you could put a cookie in, it just cannot be seen by my app :(
  • Tried res.send() with res.cookie but that STILL produces another unrelated tab

Hibernate Search - Elasticsearch with JSON manipulation

By -
Elasticsearch with JSON manipulation Elasticsearch ships with many features. It is possible that at some point, one feature you need will not be exposed by the Search DSL. To work around such limitations, Hibernate Search provides ways to: Transform the HTTP request sent to Elasticsearch for search queries. Read the raw JSON of the HTTP response received from Elasticsearch for search queries. Direct changes to the HTTP request may conflict with Hibernate Search features and be supported differently by different versions of Elasticsearch. Similarly, the content of the HTTP response may change depending on the version of Elasticsearch, depending on which Hibernate Search features are used, and even depending on how Hibernate Search features are implemented. Thus, features relying on direct access to HTTP requests or responses cannot be guaranteed to continue to work when upgrading Hibernate Search, even for micro upgrades (x.y.z to x.y.(z+1)). Use this at your own risk.

Spring Elasticsearch Operations

By -
Elasticsearch Operations Spring Data Elasticsearch uses two interfaces to define the operations that can be called against an Elasticsearch index. These are ElasticsearchOperations and ReactiveElasticsearchOperations. Whereas the first is used with the classic synchronous implementations, the second one uses reactive infrastructure. The default implementations of the interfaces offer: Read/Write mapping support for domain types. A rich query and criteria api. Resource management and Exception translation. ElasticsearchTemplate The ElasticsearchTemplate is an implementation of the ElasticsearchOperations interface using the Transport Client. @Configuration public class TransportClientConfig extends ElasticsearchConfigurationSupport {   @Bean   public Client elasticsearchClient() throws UnknownHostException {                      Settings settings = Settings.builder().put("cluster.name", "elasticsearch").build();     TransportClient client = new P
