How to generate token in vidyo dynamically in app?

I have been using sample tokens which would expire in 24hrs, but need tokens for long duration.

How can this be done? I am using Android Studio,java.

I came across generateToken.jar file but not sure how to proceed further.

We do not suggest generating token within your app due to security reasons. However, if you still decide on going that direction, the following class should help:

import android.util.Base64;

import javax.crypto.Mac;
import javax.crypto.spec.SecretKeySpec;

public class GenerateToken {

    public static final String PROVISION_TOKEN = "provision";
    private static final long EPOCH_SECONDS = 62167219200l;
    private static final String DELIM = "\0";

    public static String generateProvisionToken(String key, String jid, String expires, String vcard) throws NumberFormatException {
        String payload = join(DELIM, PROVISION_TOKEN, jid, calculateExpiry(expires), vcard);
        return new String(Base64.encode(join(DELIM, payload, hmacSha384Hex(key, payload)).getBytes(), Base64.NO_WRAP));
    }

    private static String calculateExpiry(String expires) throws NumberFormatException {
        long expiresLong = 0l;
        long currentUnixTimestamp = System.currentTimeMillis() / 1000;
        expiresLong = Long.parseLong(expires);
        return "" + (EPOCH_SECONDS + currentUnixTimestamp + expiresLong);
    }

    private static String join(String with, String... list) {
        StringBuffer buf = new StringBuffer();
        for (int i = 0; i < list.length; i++) {
            if (i != 0) {
                buf.append(with);
            }
            buf.append(list[i]);
        }
        return buf.toString();
    }

    private final static char[] hexArray = "0123456789abcdef".toCharArray();

    private static String bytesToHex(byte[] bytes) {
        char[] hexChars = new char[bytes.length * 2];
        for (int j = 0; j < bytes.length; j++) {
            int v = bytes[j] & 0xFF;
            hexChars[j * 2] = hexArray[v >>> 4];
            hexChars[j * 2 + 1] = hexArray[v & 0x0F];
        }
        return new String(hexChars);
    }

    private static String hmacSha384Hex(String key, String payload) {

        Mac mac;
        String result = "";
        try {
            final SecretKeySpec secretKey = new SecretKeySpec(key.getBytes(), "HmacSHA384");
            mac = Mac.getInstance("HmacSHA384");
            mac.init(secretKey);
            byte[] macData = mac.doFinal(payload.getBytes());
            result = bytesToHex(macData);
        } catch (Exception e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        }

        return result;
    }

}

You can generate a token with the following line:

String token = GenerateToken.generateProvisionToken(YOUR_DEVELOPER_KEY, USERNAME_STRING + "@" + YOUR_APPLICATION_ID, "10000", "");

Hope this helps.
