Support for page with authentication about athenapdf

[MrSaints]

Hey @sum1190, thank you. We're glad you like it.

It should be able to support basic auth.

Have you tried converting with the following syntax http://user:[email protected] ?

Let me know if that helps.

Unfortunately not, the page that I was testing is from a private project written in PHP with the Yii2 framework, and the method that you've tell to me doesn't work :/

Apologies for the late response @sum1190.

Ah I see. It's not a basic auth. In that case, we do not currently support it.

We can however, add the ability for the converter to run using a custom cookie jar (session) if that helps. Otherwise, I'd suggest adding a basic auth endpoint if you'd like to convert a protected page (or perhaps a page that may be accessible by a unique security token).

In theory, we can make it automatically fill up forms, submit, and convert, but it'd make the CLI app unnecessarily complex. For the aforementioned case, I'd suggest you look into http://www.nightmarejs.org/.

Hope that helps, and sorry 😞

I think that support for SESSION auth can be an useful idea ;)

PS. Thank you for the link http://www.nightmarejs.org/ , I've never seen it before
