| # One time tokens |
| |
| One time tokens are tokens requested by websites to login, create accounts, or |
| perform actions. Examples include SMS OTPs (one time passwords), email OTPs, |
| activation links, etc. |
| |
| This component provides infrastructure to request, receive and provide one time |
| tokens for autofill to fill them into forms. |
| |
| The component is limited to providing the infrastructure. Dealing with forms and |
| rendering suggestions remains the responsibility of components/autofill. As |
| such, components/autofill depends on components/one_time_tokens and not vice |
| versa. |
| |
| ## High-level architecture |
| |
| Initially this will only support SMS OTPs but it is designed to support |
| multiple types of one time tokens. |
| |
| ``` |
| components/one_time_tokens/ |
| - core/browser/ |
| - backends/ |
| - sms/ |
| - email/ |
| - [infrastructure to communicate with different backends] |
| - permissions/ |
| - [infrastructure to decide if a site is eligible to receive an OTP] |
| - [datastructures] |
| - one_time_token_service.{cc,h} |
| - android/backend/ |
| - java/ |
| - [android SMS backend] |
| ``` |
