AJAX authentication

By A.Bouchez on 2011, Wednesday November 30, 06:36 - mORMot Framework

A nice framework user, named esmondb, did write and publish some JavaScript code to handle our RESTful authentication mechanism.

It seems to work well, and implements all secure hashing and challenging.
Our authentication mechanism is much more advanced than the one used by DataSnap - which is a basic HTTP authentication with the password transmitted in clear (this is the reason why it shall better be used over HTTPS, whereas mORMot can be used over plain HTTP).
Resulting JavaScript code seems not difficult to follow, even for a no JS expert like me.

Since revision 1.15 of the framework, it is able to connect to any database engine (therefore is not limited to SQLite3), and is now called mORMot.
