Http-server: Add basic auth

Created on 5 Dec 2013  路  6Comments  路  Source: http-party/http-server

It would be nice if we could specify --user and --pass to require basic authentication for the server. Obviously this shouldn't be considered secure, but it would be a nice feature for basic protection.

I was also looking for that :+1:. It's good in situations where you need to simulate a basic auth environment.

I wrote a PR for this but it's really outdated and was never merged. I believe it wasn't too hard to implement, but I probably won't have time to bring it up to date any time soon.

Why is this not merged?...

@brandonros

I assume that you mean #245, but since there hasn't been a merge in months (ref #319) I don't expect it to be merged any time soon.

Closing this in favor of putting the focus on #245 as the discussion point. Planning to get Basic Auth into v0.10.0. Cheers!
