Credential Management API: get resolves to null

[igoj07]

NWJS Version : 0.33.3 SDK
Operating System : Win 7 x64

Expected behavior

I would like to use Credential Management API for auto sign-in feature in my app simply like this:

1. to store user password credentials
   var creds = new PasswordCredential({ id: "username", password: "password" }); navigator.credentials.store(creds);
2. to get stored user credentials
   navigator.credentials.get({password: true, mediation: 'silent'}).then(function (creds) { ... });

Actual behavior

Credentials are successfully stored, but calling navigator.credentials.get always resolves to null.

How to reproduce

Try this code:

var creds = new PasswordCredential({id: "user", password: "pass"});

navigator.credentials.store(creds).then(function () {
    navigator.credentials.get({password: true, mediation: 'silent'}).then(function (result) {
        // result = null                             
    });
});

Thank you.

This is fixed in git and will be available in the next nightly build.

Thank you for fixing this issue, but it works for local files only, not for remote ones.

How to reproduce

Page index.html contains this code only:

<script>

    var creds = new PasswordCredential({id: "foo", password: "bar"});

    navigator.credentials.store(creds).then(function (success) {
        navigator.credentials.get({password: true, mediation: 'silent'}).then(
           function (storeCreds) {
                ...
           });
    });

</script>

For this package.json it works as expected:

{
  "name": "foo",
  "main": "index.html"
}

But for this one, it doesn´t work:

{
  "name": "foo",
  "main": "http://127.0.0.1:8080/index.html"
}

Same here, it logs null

    const credential = new PasswordCredential({
        id: auth.username,
        password: auth.password,
    })
    navigator.credentials.store(credential).then(() => {
        console.info("Credential stored in the user agent's credential manager.", credential); // logs credential
        navigator.credentials.get({
            password: true,
            mediation: 'silent'
        })
            .then(c => console.log(c)); // logs null
