Calendar module: Digest auth missing

[nkl-kst]

Hi,

I updated my MM to v2.25.0 and as stated in the changelog, the digest authentication method was removed as described in #3184.

#3184 (comment) says:

So I think we can remove digest auth because it has never worked since we replaced request

I'm using digest auth for a local setup since a few years:

// config/config.js - calendar module

url: "http://local.nas/path/to/calendar",
auth: {
    user: "username",
    pass: "password",
    method: "digest",
},                                                },

And now I'm getting this error:

0|mm       | [02.10.2023 20:41.25.095] [ERROR] Calendar Error. Could not fetch calendar:  http://local.nas/path/to/calendar Error: Unauthorized
0|mm       |     at NodeHelper.checkFetchStatus (/home/pi/MagicMirror/js/node_helper.js:116:9)
0|mm       |     at process.processTicksAndRejections (node:internal/process/task_queues:95:5)

It previously worked with v2.24.0. Is there a workaround to use digest auth with v2.25.0?

I'm surprised that this worked in v2.24.0 because there was a coding error (missing await).

I don't think this will come back, you can use basic auth instead.

Thanks for your fast reply.

I'm not sure why the originally linked code should not work. There are multiple fetcher.then(...) calls to handle the fulfilled promise, no need to await (also await doesn't work in non-async functions). But maybe I'm missing something.

I did dig into this weeks ago but if it works for you I made a mistake while testing.

We removed node-fetch in the v2.25.0 release and are using native fetch. Could not get digest-fetch working with native fetch. So if you have a solution to get digest working with native fetch let us know.
