svnlog2sqlite.py does not work with a repository which "requires" authentication about svnplot

[GoogleCodeExporter]

In an attempt to recreate this issue I created a repository on a remote server
accessed over ssh. 
In this case using the form: 
python svnlog2sqlite.py svn+ssh://my.remote.pc.com/PATH/TO/SVNPLOT-testing/test1
~/TEST/sshtest-repo.db 
works fine - its prompts for password ~10 times per revision but runs to 
completion. 

In your case, what is requiring the authentication? 
The issue is with the Apache Server side bit I think.

Ok... digging into svnlogiter.py and pysvn. 
Check details on this webpage:
http://pysvn.tigris.org/docs/pysvn_prog_ref.html#pysvn_client_callback_get_login

Seems like we have to implement our own callback functions to grab a username
password etc. Similar problem exists for repositories sat behind SSL i.e. 
https. 


class SVNLogClient:^M
    def __init__(self, svnrepourl):^M
        self.svnrepourl = svnrepourl^M
        self.svnclient = pysvn.Client()^M
        self.svnclient.callback_ssl_server_trust_prompt =
self.ssl_server_trust_prompt   ### for https
        self.svnclient.callback_get_login = self.get_login   ### These additional lines
...
    def ssl_server_trust_prompt( self, trust_dict ):
        retcode=True
        accepted_failures = 1
        save=False
        return retcode, accepted_failures, save

    def get_login(self, realm, username, may_save ):
        save=False
        retcode=True
        flag = int(raw_input("send pass? ") )
        if (flag==0):
            retcode=False
        username="default"
        password="nothing"
        return retcode, username, password, save

So far I never tested the repository which requires authentication so missed 
this problem. I think suggested solution is correct. We will have to implement 
the call back function. 

We need to implement two options 
(a) Option to specify the username and password on the command line. In case 
user wants to run the svnplot script from a cronjob or scheduled task, 
specifying username and password on commandline will help.
(b) Option to request for username and password when required. However, this 
will make the update and graph generation process interactive.

I still don't have a repository sat on an http to play with but I've branched 
and
implemented the interactive "option b". 

branches/chris_callback_opt_b/src 

Nitin - can you try this out? 

If it works then in principle this can be generalised to the command line. 
Would have
to pass through in __init__ methods for SVNLogClient and SVNLog2Sqlite 
probably.

In the same branch (branches/chris_callback_opt_b/src) I've added a couple of 
the SSL
(https) specific callbacks. 
These can be tested with something like: 

python svnlog2sqlite.py https://pyx.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/pyx 
~/TEST/pyX-repo.db 

Working for anybody else?

I tested the changes from chris' branch. They seem to be working for me. Great 
!!
Thanks for quick turnaround
