Download from Dlink DIR-505 shareport service
## DIR-505 SharePort file download ##
##
## Written using a D-link DIR-505 running firmware version 1.09.
##
## This version seems to have a bug where read-only users can't list files in
## the 'folder view' mode. Because of this, the user specified needs to have
## read and write access.
##
## Note that this download is not recursive.
##
## When authenticating (using a web browser), the DIR-505 shareport system will
## direct the user to make a GET request to the login URL with no parameters.
## This returns a JSON response with several parameters. The two parameters to
## look out for in this response are 'uid' and 'challenge'. The former will
## serve as an access key once authenticated, and the latter will be used to
## hash the password from the login form. The 'uid' value should be saved to a
## cookie for future use.
##
## Once this JSON reply has been received, the 'challenge' parameter is added
## to the end of the username and hashed with HMAC-MD5, with the key for this
## hash being the plaintext password. This operation occurs in javascript on
## the client side. The hashed value forms the 'password' value for the final
## login request.
##
## Now that the challenge has been completed, the username and hashed value
## are posted to the login URL. If successful, the cookie created earlier can
## now serve as an authentication token for future requests.
##
## You can now make direct requests to the file API to discover files and
## directories on the connected USB stick. The same token can be used to
## download files from the USB stick.
