HTTP Authentication implementation in Go
This is an implementation of HTTP Basic and HTTP Digest authentication in Go language. It is designed as a simple wrapper for http.RequestHandler functions.
Features
- Supports HTTP Basic and HTTP Digest authentication.
- Supports htpasswd and htdigest formatted files.
- Automatic reloading of password files.
- Pluggable interface for user/password storage.
- Supports MD5, SHA1 and BCrypt for Basic authentication password storage.
- Configurable Digest nonce cache size with expiration.
- Wrapper for legacy http handlers (http.HandlerFunc interface)
Example usage
This is a complete working example for Basic auth:
package main
import (
"fmt"
"net/http"
auth "github.com/abbot/go-http-auth"
)
func Secret(user, realm string) string {
if user == "john" {
// password is "hello"
return "$1$dlPL2MqE$oQmn16q49SqdmhenQuNgs1"
}
return ""
}
func handle(w http.ResponseWriter, r *auth.AuthenticatedRequest) {
fmt.Fprintf(w, "<html><body><h1>Hello, %s!</h1></body></html>", r.Username)
}
func main() {
authenticator := auth.NewBasicAuthenticator("example.com", Secret)
http.HandleFunc("/", authenticator.Wrap(handle))
http.ListenAndServe(":8080", nil)
}
