It also +manages the fallback to the Android ``AutofillManager``, which delegates +requests to the system-wide autofill service set by the user. + +However, the current GV Autofill API does not leverage the complete range of +Gecko heuristics that handle many autofill/login scenarios. + +The GV Login Storage API is meant to bridge that gap and provide an +intermediate solution for Fenix to enable feature-rich autofill/login support +without duplicating Gecko mechanics. As a storage-level API, it would also +enable easy integration with the existing Firefox Sync AC. + +API Proposal A (deprecated) +--------------------------- + +Unified Login Storage API: session delegate + +.. code:: java + + class LoginStorage { + class Login { + String guid; + // @Fenix: currently called `hostname` in AsyncLoginsStorage. + String origin; + // @Fenix: currently called `formSubmitURL` in AsyncLoginsStorage + String formActionOrigin; + String httpRealm; + String username; + String password; + } + + class Hint { + // @Fenix: Automatically save the login and indicate this to the + // user. + int GENERATED; + // @Fenix: Don’t prompt to save but allow the user to open UI to + // save if they really want. + int PRIVATE_MODE; + // The data looks like it may be some other data (e.g. CC) entered + // in a password field. + // @Fenix: Don’t prompt to save but allow the user to open UI to + // save if they want (e.g. in case the CC number is actually the + // username for a credit card account) + int LOW_CONFIDENCE; + // TBD + } + + interface Delegate { + // Notify that the given login has been used for login. + // @Fenix: call AsyncLoginsStorage.touch(login.guid). + void onLoginUsed(Login login); + + // Request logins for the given domain. + // @Fenix: return AsyncLoginsStorage.getByHostname(domain). + GeckoResult onLoginRequest(String domain); + + // Request to save or update the given login. + // The hint should help determining the appropriate user prompting + // behavior. + // @Fenix: Use the API from application-services/issues/1983 to + // determine whether to show a Save or Update button on the + // doorhanger, taking into account un/pw edits in the doorhanger. + // When the user confirms the save/update, + void onLoginSave(Login login, int hint); + + // TBD (next API iteration): handle autocomplete selection. + // GeckoResult onLoginSelect(Login[] logins); + } + } + +Extension of ``GeckoSession`` + +.. code:: java + + // Extending existing session class. + class GeckoSession { + // Set the login storage delegate for this session. + void setLoginStorageDelegate(LoginStorage.Delegate delegate); + + LoginStorage.Delegate getLoginStorageDelegate(); + } + +API Proposal B +-------------- + +Split Login Storage API: runtime storage delegate / session prompts +^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ + +Split storing and prompting.
