I'm very new on NFC.
I realized NFC can open URL on browser.
But I want to hide my URL or prevent user that access via url address not NFC.
Is there any method to do this?
or method removing url history so that user cannot access by url.
please advise me :)
thanks.
I don't think that you can hide a URL directly.
What you could to is create an app that contains a web browser element (WebView). In this WebView you could then display your website without exposing the URL (though, with some effort, users might still be able to find out the URL). Instead of using a URL on the NFC tag, you could then use Android's application record (AAR) facility to direct the user to the Play Store for installation of your app or open the app if it's already installed.

I have an app that has user generated images, but to access these images, you need to log into the server, otherwise, if you try to access an image URL, you're redirected to the login page.
Is it possible to show these images in chromecast? The documentation only show examples using public URLs.
One approach is to login the user on your sender app and have your server create a (short lived) token or so and pass that back to your sender. Then pass along that token to chromecast and have chromecast use the token. For example, send a URL like "https://some.url.com/my-image.png?token=1234assadasfcrafctvawr32w34v" to your server, from chromecast, and have your server interpret that appropriately.
I am sure you can think of more sophisticated approaches but that is the basic idea.
I need to integrate google contacts import in my nw.js app. How should I create the google app ? When I create the app as web app, it asks for redirect uri which is not available for desktop apps. I'm not clear about how to implement google integration for desktop apps. Can anyone help me on this. ?
There is an option in OAuth for desktop applications, when instead of http://domain you will redirect to app://something and you application will be started or receive a callback.
To make this, in your application you need to open request token url in new window (new window in your node-webkit app).
Also: google docs and node-webkit github issue and other issue about this.
For me I thought better would be open a default browser, there is a high chance that user already authenticated, and then just need to click "allow". So I start simple webserver inside node-wekit app and redirect to localhost.
You can see implementation in my project https://github.com/Paxa/postbird/blob/90cfb53b1775310eb2f262c8b54c9dba15b5cc0a/app/heroku_client.js#L185
To open default browser I use command "open" (only for mac)
child_process.spawn('open', [url]);
I also try to close browser window when user redirected back, it works but not always.
response.writeHead(200, {"Content-Type": "text/html"});
response.end("<script type='text/javascript'>window.close();</script>");
May be I should also make a window active when receive redirect back (didn't try it yet):
var currentWin = require('gui').Window.get();
currentWin.focus();
If google not allows to make localhost as a callback url, you can try to use some domain (even free) and point it to 127.0.0.1 or use http://readme.localtest.me/
I've got a windows phone 8/8.1 app which contains a page with an embedded web browser on it. I build a list of articles extracting information from the website and all of this works fine but note that I only use this web browser to display an article when a user has clicked on the item in my list.
The article in question provides a button to allow user to leave comments via twitter. At the bottom of each article there is a "Twitter Log in" button. When I click on it, it brings me to the authorizing page and it displays the news website as the app I want to authorize.
After entering my twitter credential and clicking on the "Authorize App", I get the following error:
Exception of type 'Microsoft.Phone.Controls.WebBrowserNavigationException' was thrown.
Then a Twitter webpage gets displayed display the following:
There is no request token for this page. That's a special key we need from applications asking you to use your Twitter account. Please go back to the site or application that sent you here and try again. It's probably just a mistake.
It definitely authenticated me as I can see my Twitter account picture but it failed to authorize the app.
I understand that my app is not the original website as it is a wp8/8.1 app but what I'm calling in the web browser is the page that contains all the original code from the news website and therefore you would assume everything would work as if I was calling the website directly from a browser.
If I call the website from the browser that comes with wp8/8.1, it works as expected!! Strangely enough they have the same functionality but using facebook and this works as expected.
I've had a look at html the "twitter authorized page" when called from my phone and when called directly from my web browser on my laptop and while I can clearly see the form contains an hidden field for authenticity_token with a value and a oauth_token with another value, they do differ.
I don't know if they're suppose to be identical but as I said, I don't understand why this wouldn't work as when I display the article in the embedded web browser, you'd assume that everything else that goes on after this would behave as it would in a regular web browser and when this 'authorize app' button is clicked, you'd assume that all values would be passed as normal and the app would get authorized but nope!!
Any suggestions on how I could possible resolve this problem?
Thanks.
I can't really tell what's going on, but it looks like you would have to implement Twitter OAuth. Luckily for you there is already a library that can do that - https://github.com/konradbartecki/TwitterAutherino
I am the author of this library, so let me know if you need some support or non-existent features.
I am using a facebook php SDK to post image to users album using the user access token. First we will generate the token and then post the image. My issue is that posting image works fine but below each image on right side, facebook adds a link 'via MY APPLICATION NAME'.This link redirects user to my application page in facebook (http://www.facebook.com/apps/application.php?id=APPLICATION ID). I want to change this link to point to my personal website URL (www.abc.com).
Please let me know if this is possible.
I've seen other apps do it, and am looking for the same thing. I've glanced over all the app settings, and am currently reading the api trying to figure it out. It's probably going to be something stupid like deleting all the other urls to force it to default to your site url in the app settings...Let me know if you have any luck with this.
I have a simple app I want to create, which allows you to place any website within your Facebook page on a tab.
Previously, I could just do this without a secure canvas URL, but now it is telling me that I must have this to create the app.
Is there a way around this, as the app does not take any info from anybody, it just shows a site from my server on the page.
Short answer: No. You do not need to provide an encrypted connection if the app runs in sandbox mode but otherwise it is mandatory.
Well, actually people using secure browsing will just see an error message at the moment but judging from recent announcements apps without an encrypted connection will be blocked a bit further down the road.
