Support Security Mechanisms for Interacting with WoT Things

[RobWin]

Problem Description:

The kotlin-wot framework currently lacks support for essential security mechanisms, such as OAuth2 and Basic Authentication, which are crucial for secure communication with Web of Things (WoT) devices. Without these security features, the framework is limited in its ability to interact with WoT devices that require authenticated access, thereby restricting its applicability in secure environments.

Acceptance Criteria:

• Basic Authentication Support:

  • Implement functionality within kotlin-wot to handle Basic Authentication when communicating with WoT devices.
  • Ensure that the framework can securely store and transmit credentials as per standard security practices.

• OAuth2 Support:

  • Integrate OAuth2 authentication capabilities into the kotlin-wot framework.
  • Allow for the configuration of OAuth2 client credentials and token management within the framework.
