Authentication type `Digest` is not defined correctly

[ricardozanini]

I tried this:

DigestAuthentication is defined in a structure expecting Username and Password, whereas to implement it properly, a given implementation would need more information in the data structure.a given implementation would need more information in the data structure to implement it properly

This happened:

The DigestAuthentication schema is missing information based on the actual authentication mechanism.

I expected this:

See the expected structure in this article: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digest_access_authentication

Is there a workaround?

No, the workflow should use another auth mechanism or the implementation could use the username and password to hash the data, but some servers might not accept just that.,

Anything else?

@ricardozanini Shouldn't that be part of v1.0.0 instead?

[ricardozanini]

@cdavernas it could, of course! My rationale was to avoid putting too much on 1.0.0 and never release it. I'd say that Digest is a good to have for 1.0.0.

@ricardozanini Moving it, then!
