Missing Authorization header in Angular 7 HTTP response
Accessing an API back-end from Angular client may result in missing response headers. A common scenario is a missing Authorization header, containing the JSON Web Token (JWT) which is returned from the back-end service when the user logs in successfully. The solution to the problem is to expose the desired header in the back-end code (notice that the Authorization header is not exposed by default). In the case of a Spring Boot back-end, we need to add the following line of code:
response.addHeader("Access-Control-Expose-Headers", "Authorization");
The same rule applies to all custom headers that need to be exposed in the response to the client. Each of them needs to be explicitly exposed in the back-end code.
The full back-end code for the successful authentication method is available below:
@Override
protected void successfulAuthentication(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response,
FilterChain chain, Authentication authResult) throws IOException, ServletException {
String token = JWT.create()
.withSubject(((User) authResult.getPrincipal()).getUsername())
.withExpiresAt(new Date(System.currentTimeMillis() + EXPIRATION_TIME))
.sign(HMAC512(SECRET.getBytes()));
response.addHeader("Access-Control-Expose-Headers", "Authorization");
response.addHeader(HEADER_STRING, TOKEN_PREFIX + token);
}

MVVM and its implementation in Android
Writing application code before thinking about an architecture is a really bad idea. Android programming does not make a difference. Everybody who starts creating Android apps begins doing so without following a specific architecture.
Handling Events with Lambda Expressions
Lambda Expressions and Functional Interfaces are a new feature of Java 8 and the support provided for lambda expressions is only with functional interfaces.
Repository in Android’s MVVM architecture
Repository is a class which purpose is to provide a clean API for accessing data. What that means is that the Repository can gather data from different data sources(different REST APIs, cache, local database storage) and it provides this data to the rest of the app.
