sourcelink test in private github repo

[maxild]

Just enabled SourceLink for a nupkg build with code in private github repo. Running the SourceLink V3 dotnet global tool

sourcelink test .\artifacts\Brf.HisClientFx.0.2.0-aGH-6-0001.nupkg -u  personal_access_token

give me a lot of 404 errors

error: url failed NotFound: Not Found
.
.

I can download source files with curl without getting 404 errors

curl --header "Authorization: token personal_access_token" --location "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/maxild/HisClientFx/72acf10621facd60df91ef2f4ca2c9720e71e2b7/src/Brf.HisClientFx/Polyfills/ReflectionPolyfillExtensions.cs"

We both now that requests that require authentication will return 404 on Github. So why does the tool fail to authenticate. Am I doing something wrong?

 sourcelink test --help

Usage:  test [arguments] [options]

Arguments:
  path  path to pdb, dll or nupkg

Options:
  -f|--file <path>                the path to a dll or pdb in a nupkg
  -a|--use-auth <type>            Use authentication. Defaults to Basic
  -ae|--auth-encoding <encoding>  Encoding to use on authentication value. Defaults to ASCII
  -u|--username <username>        Username to use to authenticate
  -p|--password <password>        Password for the username that is use to authenticate
  -h|--help                       Show help information

I just looked at the code. Try adding a -a Basic.

But basic is the default value, so does that change anything?

[maxild]

@ctaggart Doesn't work with explicit Basic (=> 404), but the Authorization HTTP header is of the form

Authorization: <type> <credentials> 

but

sourcelink test .\artifacts\Brf.HisClientFx.0.2.0-aGH-6-0001.nupkg -a token -u personal_access_tokren

errors with Authentication type of token is not supported

[maxild]

I can also get

curl --header "Authorization: Basic base64('personal_access_token')" --location "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/maxild/HisClientFx/72acf10621facd60df91ef2f4ca2c9720e71e2b7/src/Brf.HisClientFx/Polyfills/ReflectionPolyfillExtensions.cs"

to work.

That is I base64 encode the ASCII(!) (not Unicode, unless UTF8...dotnet uses UTF16) representation of the token (or 'username:token' string...both work), but

sourcelink test .\artifacts\Brf.HisClientFx.0.2.0-aGH-6-0001.nupkg -a Basic -u base64(personal_access_token)

Invalid password value
Parameter name: password

Maybe the base64 encoding ring a bell. I have to leave, its late here.

@ctaggart BTW debugging in vs2017 works after adding , so the Visual Studio is able to authenticate with Github and download the (private) source...

Also the tool used to work with public Github repos for me, the only difference now I can't get it to authenticate with github

@maxild Sounds like it may be a bug in this app, so I'll reopen and take a look when I have time.

@ctaggart Oops didn't mean to close, glad you reopened it yourself:smile:
