Add in authentication

Open jcreamer898 opened this issue 11 years ago • 6 comments

Hey Andrew! I went ahead and added some auth features.

The basic idea is that you can now do...

nserver --auth p@ssw0rd

Then when the user hits localhost:8000, they'll be directed to a login screen.

The login screen will prompt for a password.

Once the correct password has been entered, the duration of the session will not require any further authentication and will work as normal.

Let me know if you love or hate this, or have any additional questions.

Thanks!

Hey, sorry to take so long to respond to this! Have you considered using HTTP Basic Auth instead of building your own logic here?

I agree, HTTP Basic Auth seems to keep with the 'simple' theme of this server.

I would love someone to go with an HTTP Basic Auth solution! I don't have the time right now, unfortunately :\

I'll see if I can look into it.

That would be great, let me know if you want some help on this. I should have time over the holiday weekend :)
