Support Authentication
----------------------

                 Key: SEAMREST-54
                 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/SEAMREST-54
             Project: Seam REST
          Issue Type: Feature Request
          Components: Client
    Affects Versions: 3.1.0.Beta4
            Reporter: Dominik Obermaier


At the moment it is not possible to use authentication with the @RestClient Annotation.

A possible API could look like this (example with constructor injection):

 @Inject
    public RESTService(@RestClient(value = "#{restConfiguration}", username = "#{myUsername}, password = "#{myPassword}) RestQueryService restQueryService) {

        ...
    }

Of course the defaults for username and password should be set to "".

Another approach could be to use an @Credential annotation in conjunction with @RestClient. An API could look like this:

 @Inject
    public RESTService(@RestClient(value = "#{restConfiguration}") @Credential(username = "#{myUsername}, password = "#{myPassword} RestQueryService restQueryService) {

        ...
    }
