Basic Authentication

[jhennard]

I would like to send basic authorization headers when using the save method on a model. Does anyone know what the correct approach is?

My initial attempt...

model.save({
headers: {
'Authorization': 'Basic ' + Base64.encode('username:password')
},
username: 'username',
password: 'password',
withCredentials: true
});

The way I use it is by just setting the headers (as you do) and making sure that it's a POST. Setting username and password again is not necessary in my case.

I run Base64.encode('user:password'), but throws :

Uncaught ReferenceError: Base64 is not defined

Where can we find Base64?

thanks,
